Fractional CTO · Wealth Management

The embedded fractional CTO for boutique RIAs and family offices.

Full-stack. Wealth management native. Fractional cost.

Your tech is holding you back.

Most boutique wealth management firms hit the same wall. The platform is live, the tools are running — but the stack is working against the firm, not for it.

  1. 01

    No one owns the roadmap

    Tools accumulate over time with no coherent strategy. Each new hire brings a new favorite app. Technical debt grows quietly.

  2. 02

    Adapting to software instead of the reverse

    Workflows get built around the limitations of tools, rather than tools being configured to match how the firm actually operates.

  3. 03

    Addepar left underbuilt

    You're paying for a premium platform and using 40% of it. Reporting is generic. Feeds drop and nobody knows until a client asks.

  4. 04

    Manual processes that never get automated

    There's always a spreadsheet. There's always a workaround. The fix is a weekend project that's been six months out for two years.

  5. 05

    Tech outpaced management

    The stack grew faster than anyone's ability to manage it. No documentation. No single person who understands the whole picture.

  6. 06

    Waiting on support queues

    When something breaks or needs building, you're in a ticket queue. By the time it resolves, the urgency has passed but the problem hasn't.

None of them quite fit.

Option A

Full-time hire

$200K–$400K / year

  • Recruiting takes months
  • Long ramp-up before they're productive
  • One perspective, limited external visibility
  • Fixed cost whether workload is light or heavy

Option B

Generalist fractional CTO

Retainer

  • No wealth management context
  • Addepar is a foreign concept
  • Generic advice that doesn't translate to operations
  • Long learning curve on an unfamiliar domain

Option C

Addepar consultant

Project-based

  • Scoped to the platform, not the firm
  • Disconnected from the broader tech stack
  • Engagement ends; institutional knowledge walks out
  • Back in the support queue afterward

Embedded. Full-stack. Wealth management native.

Ordric is a fractional CTO built specifically for boutique wealth management firms — embedded in your operations, not episodic. You get a partner who owns the technology roadmap, knows Addepar deeply, and stays invested in outcomes long-term.

Full-stack scope

One partner across Addepar, CRM, automation, AI, integrations, and vendor selection.

Cross-firm visibility

Serving multiple firms at once creates a view of what works and what doesn't across the segment. That perspective benefits every client.

Customization as default

Everything is built for your firm — not a template that gets adjusted. The difference shows in the quality of the output.

Boutique responsiveness

Fast, informed, firm-specific answers. Not tickets. Not queues.

Wealth management native

Built from years inside a firm like yours — not parachuted in from another industry.

AI first-mover

Already deploying AI tools in wealth management operations. You benefit from what works.

Built from the operator side.

6 years
