The four-year-old company is recognized for its innovative solutions in estate planning implementation for their Standalone Deed Filing Service and Streamlining Trust Digitization and Restatement. This marks the second consecutive year Encore has received multiple finalist honors, underscoring the company's commitment to empowering advisors with tools that simplify and elevate the estate planning experience. Encore serves more than 5,500 advisors nationwide and maintains the highest advisor satisfaction rating in the industry according to the most recent Kitces Advisor Productivity Survey and the T3/Inside Information Advisor Tech Survey. "As a bootstrapped company, our 'Advisors first, always' core value lets us prioritize what matters most to our users," said Matt Morris, CEO of EncorEstate Plans. "We're grateful to the advisors and other partners, along with our amazing team, for making this recognition possible. We are mission-driven to help more financial professionals see how they can use modular estate planning services – supported by not just the EncorEstate Plans technology, but a team of legal professionals who supervise and support the documentation and deed filing process – to supercharge their business offerings, increase client satisfaction, and add to both their top and bottom lines." UPCOMING DEMO AND NEW FEATURE ANNOUNCEMENT AT WM EDGE Morris will showcase Encore's latest advancements at the upcoming Wealth Management EDGE conference, June 10-12 in Boca Raton, FL, where he will debut an exclusive new platform feature, the Standalone Deed Filing service, during the WealthStack Demos on Wednesday, June 11, 2025. The 60-minute WealthStack Demo session, which will showcase Encore as well as other innovative wealthtech solutions, starts at 2:40pm ET. This new capability enables advisors to assist clients in funding their trusts with real estate, even if the original estate planning documents were not created on the Encore platform. "Think of a trust as a safe. You fill it with things you want your trustee to control," Morris explained. "The benefit of avoiding probate is lost when real estate isn't titled in the name of the trust. Our new Standalone Deed Filing Service makes it easier than ever to ensure existing estate plans are properly funded and to overcome the common procrastination that leaves clients exposed." The new Standalone Deed Filing Service is designed to close a critical gap for advisors. While many clients complete estate planning documents, they often delay or neglect the crucial step of recording their home deeds with the county, leaving their largest asset out of the trust. Encore's solution streamlines this process, enabling advisors to deliver comprehensive, actionable estate planning support. #1 IN ADVISOR SATISFACTION AND FLEXIBLE PRICING Encore continues to set itself apart with a pay-as-you-go pricing model and a steadfast commitment to advisor autonomy – there is no vendor lock-in. Unlike other estate planning tools that compete for attention within the financial services industry, renewal sticker shock is also thwarted thanks to EncorEstate Plans' innovative business model.
