Overview

Wealthfront is an automated investing and banking company headquartered in Palo Alto, California, and founded in 2008. The company runs software managed investment accounts, a high yield cash account, bond portfolios, and lending products for retail customers, with no human financial advisers in the loop. It manages tens of billions of dollars for a largely younger, technology sector customer base and competes with both traditional brokerages and other robo-advisers.
