Your very own personal wealth manager

Build a portfolio you can believe in and earn more in the only terms that matter: after tax

The only place you'll get full transparency, flexibility, and automatic tax optimisation

Get started

Define your narrative

In under 5 minutes, get investment accounts and secure your wealth.

With Direct Indexing, you get the lower risk of a diversified portfolio, but keep power over where your money goes. You don't get that with pre-built funds and ETFs.

Simple

We'll help you build a diversified portfolio in minutes, with an all-inclusive fee of 0.85%, and no hidden charges.

Smart

Our algorithms cut your tax bill effectively giving you £100k extra ISA allowance in a GIA - great if you've maxed yours out!

Protected

Your money and assets are held separately with a custodian, and protected by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS).

How it works

Tell us about yourself, your goals, and your values

We think your money should reflect who you are and what's important to you while helping you achieve your goals.

We'll suggest a starting point

We'll recommend a model portfolio for you to start from based on your details (or you can choose to start from scratch).

All recommended portfolios are diversified and in line with your risk tolerance, but adjusted to who you are and what you care about.

Personalise your portfolio with complete flexibility

You can make any changes you want down to the stock level, unconstrained by companies being bundled in ETFs, which you'd have at other providers.

That means you can remove any industries you don't want to fund, overweight those you love, or adjust any individual holdings.

We optimise your tax

Our algorithms cut your tax bill to earn you up to 2% higher returns post-tax* compared to holding the equivalent ETF, without increasing your risk!

That means most users earn back way more than our 0.85% fee - we pay for ourselves!

*For an average user with a £100k GIA portfolio, with 8% annual growth over 10 years (FTSE 250 benchmark)
