Empaxis Joins Communify, Merging Financial AI with Investment Ops and Data Management Excellence

As Founder and CEO of Empaxis, I am proud to announce that we are now part of Communify, the leading provider of Financial Al, Digital and Data solutions for the financial industry.

Through this acquisition and strategic alignment, Empaxis will combine its investment operations and data management expertise with Communify’s Financial AI platform to deliver maximum scale and efficiency for wealth managers and investors.

My guiding philosophy at Empaxis has always been the pursuit of a better way to deliver value, whether through internal innovation, strong partnerships, or joining a larger organization like Communify to leverage transformative synergy.

Empaxis has long been committed to providing investment firms with operational excellence, and as AI fundamentally reshapes the future of our industry, it became clear that aligning with Communify’s cutting-edge platform was the best way to ensure we continue to deliver the most advanced solutions.  

What’s Next for Empaxis?

While Empaxis joins Communify, we will retain our brand name and identity.  

We are committed to maintaining the strong, trusted relationships we’ve built, and our leadership team and staff all remain with us, ensuring continuity for  our clients.

Most importantly, we will continue providing middle- and back-office operations and technology expertise that our clients and the investment management industry have long known they can rely on us for. (The only difference now is that our clients have access to the best in AI-powered solutions.)  

Joining Communify is the next step in our progression as an organization, and as AI increasingly takes center stage, Empaxis has positioned itself accordingly and is just getting started in this new era.

How Financial AI and Data Management Excellence Deliver Big for Investment Firms

The power of Financial AI is undeniably on the rise, yet its potential remains largely untapped because of a pervasive industry challenge: fragmented, inaccessible, and messy data scattered across disconnected and incompatible systems.  

Investment and client data is often erroneous, incomplete, or requires excessive manual intervention, stalling AI initiatives before they can even begin.  

Communify solved much of this problem by building an amazing platform, the equivalent of a high-performance, Formula One race car with a next-generation AI engine that can do it all.  

However, even the fastest car needs a top crew. If the foundational data is flawed, the platform can't run optimally.  

This is also why an acquisition and partnership with Empaxis is a great move for Communify: we are the expert pit crew that ensures the car is well-maintained, the data is clean, and the platform is consistently running at peak, optimal performance for wealth managers and investors.

What Communify and Empaxis Deliver

For our clients and the broader investment management industry, the union and Communify acquisition of Empaxis delivers an immediate, integrated answer to the persistent challenge of data fragmentation and poorly integrated systems.

Firms will continue to receive the middle and back- office and systems integration expertise they have always known us for. The difference is that clients now have the option and opportunity to leverage the full suite of Communify solutions.

And the key to solving the industry's data problem lies in Communify's approach to intelligent technology:

  • Knowledge Bases: These are the foundation. They ingest the qualified, confirmed, and quality data managed and cleaned by Empaxis. This data is then structured and connected, essentially becoming the high-trust fuel for the AI engine.
  • MIND™ AI: This is the intelligence layer. It uses deterministic AI (logic-based, data-driven reasoning) and generative AI (natural language creation) to analyze market and client data and deliver clear, actionable explanations of portfolio performance, market movements, financial health, and investment rationale.

Enhancing the Client Experience

With clean data flowing into the MIND™ AI, Communify can deliver a seamless, personalized digital experience:

  • Communify Pro+: This is our premier, out-of-the-box digital wealth platform. It allows firms to immediately deploy an AI-enabled client and advisor experience on day one, dramatically cutting implementation time and cost.
  • AI-Powered Stories: These automatically convert complex financial data into personalized, easy-to-understand narratives (like Fund Stories or Client Stories) that advisors and investors can engage with on demand.
  • Financial Chat: Provides secure, instant, and compliant communication that uses the firm's own knowledge base to answer specific, complex client and advisor questions in real-time.
  • Digital Apps: Clients gain access to a full suite of pre-integrated digital applications for client reporting, advisor tools, and market intelligence, accelerating the timeline for digital maturity.

An AI-Driven, Data-Driven Future Starts with Communify

In my 21 years of running Empaxis, I have seen numerous game-changers and paradigm shifts in investment operations and financial technology.  

However, the current, rapid rise of Financial AI is unlike anything we have seen before.  

It is a fundamental, generational change that demands an immediate, integrated response.  

Aligning with Communify became the clear, best strategic decision to meet this moment.

This acquisition represents a true Win-Win-Win: it's a win for Communify in expanding its operational rigor; it's a win for Empaxis in securing a future at the cutting-edge of technology; but most importantly, it is a massive win for our clients, the wealth managers and investors who will leverage this combined platform and suite of digital apps to achieve unmatched scale, efficiency, and client insight.

I want to extend my sincere thanks to the entire Communify team for the warm welcome we have received. And to the dedicated, hard-working Empaxis team: thank you. Your commitment and delivery of operational excellence over the years are what made this powerful next chapter possible.

We are ready to build the future of investment operations and AI-powered financial technology, together.
