By

New tool will help firms deliver a highly personalized client experience at scale

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Feathery, the AI operating and decisioning system for financial services, today announced the launch of its new AI-Powered Proposal Generation solution for wealth management firms. As firms look for ways to improve organic growth rates, this innovation solves the long-standing operational challenge of creating highly personalized proposals for every client.

Proposal Generation makes highly personalized proposals practical at scale. Feathery brings together client data, planning documents, advisor expertise, and firm-approved templates in a single AI workspace, drawing information from systems such as Salesforce, eMoney, Vanilla, Holistiplan, Addepar, Morningstar, and more. Feathery’s AI assistant, Robin, uses those inputs to draft a proposal tailored to each client’s financial picture, goals, and priorities while maintaining the firm’s templates, branding, and disclosures. Teams can then collaborate on the proposal and chat with Robin in natural language to make changes, with updates reflected directly in the document.

“Wealth firms know how to deliver personalization that’s unique to each client’s financial situation but doing so takes time and requires significant collaboration across different groups in an organization,” said Peter Dun, co-founder and CEO of Feathery. “Feathery helps firms bring together their collective expertise and remove operational complexity so they can deliver more personalized experiences while reducing manual work.”

Reflecting Each Client’s Unique Financial Story

With Proposal Generation, Feathery helps firms overcome the traditional tradeoff between speed and personalization. By reducing the manual preparation and coordination behind each proposal, Feathery helps firms deliver a higher level of personalization more consistently across their advisor teams, without requiring the same level of effort for every client.

Proposal Generation is the latest addition to Feathery’s platform that is flexible and specialized enough to power the entire client and policy lifecycle while fitting seamlessly into the systems firms already rely on. Feathery has extensive experience automating complex wealth management workflows including advisor onboarding, account opening, advisor transitions and repapering.

Civitas ID Receives $500,000 Grant to Build Open-Source Digital Public Infrastructure Closing the Documentation Gap

$500,000 two-year grant from the Gates Foundation to advance open-source Digital Public Infrastructure designed for people excluded from formal systems due to documentation gapsAdvances open-source technology leveraging open standards and artificial intelligenceAddresses the documentation gap that prevents nearly a billion people from fully participating in the global economy, initially focused on displaced populations where the barrier is most acute

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Civitas ID, a US-based nonprofit building open-source digital identity infrastructure, today announced a two-year, $500,000 grant from the Gates Foundation. The funding continues the development of a resilient Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) specifically designed to close the documentation gap that prevents nearly a billion people worldwide from fully participating in the global economy. Civitas is initially focused on displaced populations where the barrier is most acute, with technology built to serve the wider population over time.

A barrier keeping people around the world from formal work, banking, healthcare, and education is not poverty alone. It is the inability to prove who they are and what they have done in a way institutions recognize. Civitas is developing three components to close that gap: verifiable digital credentials that institutions issue and verify, a wallet where individuals hold and control their own credentials, and a platform that helps people navigate the services and aid available to them. Together they are designed to be durable, adopted by governments and multilateral institutions, and adapted by partners. Civitas is actively developing partnerships and pilot programs in Colombia and Kenya to close the documentation gap.

“Nearly a billion people lack documentation institutions will trust,” said Colin Walsh, Founder and Board Chair, Civitas ID. “Civitas is initially focused on the 117.8 million forcibly displaced, where the barrier is most acute. They carry skills, ambitions, and the will to build stable lives. This funding from the Gates Foundation lets us build the digital public infrastructure to address the problem at scale and shift the paradigm from aid to self-reliance.”

The architecture is open-source and inspectable, built on W3C Verifiable Credentials, Decentralized Identifiers, and open protocols. The credentials are designed for institutional recognition across governments, banks, employers, healthcare providers, and schools.

Human-centered design research led by IDEO.org has anchored the technology development in the actual needs of the people it serves. The objective is that people own their identities and use verifiable credentials to unlock opportunity, stability, and long-term mobility, wherever they are.

ABOUT CIVITAS ID
Civitas ID is a US-based 501(c)(3) non-profit organization (EIN 39-2324240) building open-source digital identity infrastructure. Civitas ID’s mission is to turn documentation from an economic barrier into an institutionally recognized bridge to opportunity and integration. The organization’s vision is a world where everyone can prove who they are and what they have done, wherever they are. Civitas ID has assembled a global ecosystem of humanitarian, academic, financial, technology, and legal partners across deployment corridors in Colombia and Kenya. Learn more at civitasid.org.
