WealthFeed Adds 401(k) Prospecting Tools Using Form 5500 Data

WealthFeed, an AI-powered growth platform built for financial advisors, announced Tuesday the addition of Form 5500 data to its prospecting toolkit, enabling advisors to identify and pursue 401(k) plan opportunities more systematically.

Form 5500 is a federal disclosure document that employer-sponsored retirement plans must file annually, making it a publicly available source of intelligence on plan size, fees, and the parties responsible for oversight. By integrating this data, WealthFeed gives advisors a structured way to surface retirement plan prospects they might otherwise miss.

Embedding prospecting workflows directly into an advisor's existing technology stack lowers the barrier to entry for smaller practices.
