Saint O is featured this week on the Not Just Jazz Network, to amplify the band’s impact further and reach within the jazz and world music communities with their new release “One Life To Live” and new website.

TORONTO, Jan. 6, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Get ready to experience a thrilling new sound as Saint O, the Afro-Caribbean jazz ensemble led by percussionist Jermaine St. Omer, takes the world on a musical journey with the release of their highly anticipated new album, One Life To Live. With its vibrant fusion of Caribbean rhythms and jazz improvisation, this 10-song album captures the essence of Saint O’s unique musical identity. The group has also launched an updated website, offering fans and music lovers easy access to their latest music, performance dates, and exclusive content.

“We are so excited to share ‘One Life To Live’ with the world, this album is a reflection of our roots, our culture, and our journey as musicians. We hope that when listeners hear it, they feel the spirit of the Caribbean and the freedom of jazz that we’re passionate about.” ~ Jermain St. Omer.

With his vast experience, including performing with Canada’s first black female Juno Award winner Liberty Silver, St. Omer’s leadership brings depth and authenticity to the band’s sound, making every performance an immersive, captivating experience.

Upon arriving in Canada in 1974, St. Omer enrolled at the Ontario College of Percussion for a few years, where he studied the application of drums and percussion under the tutelage of Director Paul Robson before taking on a Canada-wide tour as drummer with the R&B/Funk/Disco ensemble “ODYSSEY.”

Mili and Egnyte Partner to put Client Documents to work in Financial Advice

Published

The partnership brings Egnyte’s secure content platform and Mili’s AI agents together, so advice firms can deliver more comprehensive, personalized advice at scale.

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Oct. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Mili, an AI platform for wealth management firms, and Egnyte, a leader in secure content collaboration, intelligence, and governance, today announced a partnership that brings Mili’s AI agents to client documents in Egnyte. Advisors work from a file or a whole client folder alongside data from the firm’s CRM, portfolio and planning systems, under each advisor’s Egnyte permissions.

Kitces Research finds that reviewing client documents is the most common way advisors use AI. Its productivity research puts a new financial plan at 15 to 40 hours of team time.

Advisors use Mili’s agents to model the tax cost of moving a client’s accounts into the firm’s strategy, weigh a rebalance against unrealized gains, summarize a bonus agreement and build a financial snapshot from a statement. The agents link answers to their sources and flag what an analysis may still need.

David Ringler, Managing Director at Onyx Bridge Wealth Group ($1.6B+ AUM), said, “Egnyte and Mili are two valuable pieces of technology in our stack, and bringing them together has changed how our practice runs. Mili’s meeting prep and planning agents have become significantly better with Egnyte data behind them.”

Chirag Gandhi, Co-Founder and CEO of Mili, said, “How many clients an advice firm can serve well has long been capped. It is set by the work of understanding each client’s financial life. Agentic AI is changing that, helping advice firms uplift client capacity by accelerating the delivery of high-quality advice.”

Kyle Blair, Director of Global Financial Services at Egnyte, said, “Egnyte helps financial services firms accelerate critical business operations by turning document-heavy tasks into faster, connected, and revenue-generating workflows. Our partnership enables Mili’s AI agents to securely access and work on customer data within Egnyte for better business outcomes.”

The integration is live for mutual customers. Building on Mili’s work with hundreds of advice firms, it aims to put a firm’s full client knowledge into its advice.
