WealthFeed, an artificial intelligence-driven growth platform for financial advisors, has expanded its suite of prospecting tools to include 401(k) plan targeting powered by Form 5500 data, the company announced Nov. 2, 2026.

Form 5500 is a federal filing that employer-sponsored retirement plans must submit annually to the Department of Labor, disclosing plan assets, participant counts, and service providers. By incorporating this public data, WealthFeed enables advisors to screen and identify businesses whose retirement plans may be underserved or due for a review — a long-standing challenge in the retirement plan market.

The 401(k) plan market represents a significant growth opportunity for advisors looking to diversify beyond individual wealth management clients. Retirement plan sponsors are required to act as fiduciaries, creating recurring demand for qualified advisors who can demonstrate plan oversight, fee benchmarking, and participant education services.

WealthFeed positions the new capability as part of a broader end-to-end growth engine aimed at accelerating advisor client acquisition. Continue reading at All Financial Services & Investing.
