Frequently Asked Questions
Compliance
Y is an AI agent built for financial professionals. It handles time-intensive workflows like portfolio analysis, report generation, and client content drafts, while operating entirely within a governed, SOC 2-certified environment that keeps compliance teams in control.

Built-In Guardrails
- All AI-generated outputs (including analysis, summaries, and charts) are produced as a draft and require advisor review before use. Y cannot distribute content directly to clients.
- Human confirmation is required before any live portfolio or watchlist is modified or saved.
- Y cannot access or act on tools or data outside a user's licensed entitlements, enforced at the architecture level.
- Outputs do not constitute a recommendation. Investment, legal, tax, or financial advice is out of scope.
- Disclosure language is included on all AI-generated reports and is configurable at the firm level.
Home Office Controls
- User access is managed at the individual level by account administrators.
- Admins can push shared prompt templates to standardize workflows.
- For firms with hard AI block requirements, Y can be disabled at the feature level.
