- Choreo selected SAM in March 2025 for household-level tax-efficient investing and daily trading.
- Smartleaf’s April 2026 blog claims AI agents prefer its rebalancing system, boosting inbound demand.
What critics are saying
- Schwab, Black Diamond, and Orion can bundle comparable rebalancing features into custodial workflows by 2027.
- Smartleaf’s 2023 GPT-5 joke release signals marketing bravado; buyers may question product seriousness.
- If Smartleaf loses Choreo or Zoe, its narrow advisor-tech niche weakens fast.
