Techbuild’s Take
It is important to note that Robo-advisors are digital platforms that offer automated, algorithm-driven financial strategy services with hardly any human supervision.
A standard Robo-advisor takes an online questionnaire to ask questions about a startup’s financial state and future aspirations and then utilizes it to provide recommendations and automatically invest in these startups.
The key benefit of Robo-advisors is that they are less expensive than traditional financial advisors. Online platforms can provide the same services at a fraction of the cost by removing human labor.
Small startups, particularly those who are young and inexperienced, frequently seek the assistance of financial consultants or traditional financial organizations to get began, but seldom achieve their goals. For one thing, there are relatively few players in this market who conduct a thorough and need-based study and then deliver tailored solutions based on the results.
However, high-quality financial advice is expensive, and only a few startups can obtain it. In such circumstances, Robo advisers are used, which assist people in navigating the complex world of financial investing in an effective and cost-effective manner.
Xpovi not only provides these services but also, a User Manual is included in the deliverables to guide and assist users in iterating, pivoting, and changing assumptions as their business conditions change.
The business plan includes
- addressable customer base identification,
- prediction funding surplus (deficit) by source,
- prediction revenue and cost models,
- automated marketing budget, media strategy, and gaining more customers, and
- tailored employee recruitment and remuneration on a 5-year forecast basis in a multicurrency presentation.
