About AdvisorOS

AdvisorOS is a data-driven platform that helps consumers find registered financial advisors and helps advisors grow their practice through enhanced digital presence. Our directory covers every SEC-registered investment adviser representative in the United States.

Unlike review sites or lead-generation platforms, AdvisorOS is built entirely on public regulatory data from the SEC's Investment Adviser Public Disclosure (IAPD) system and FINRA BrokerCheck. This means every advisor in our directory is verified through official registration records — not self-reported profiles.

Our research team analyzes this data to produce original insights on the financial advisory industry, including fee trends, credential distribution, market concentration, and firm characteristics.
