Why Artisan.

Four reasons firms move off legacy systems and spreadsheets — and stay.

Built by operators.

Founders worked as both software vendors and broker-dealer back-office IT staff. We've lived the problems we solve.

27 years in.

Founded 1998. Still independent. Still focused.

100% US-based team.

All development and support staff based in the United States. Call us, get a real person.

Exclusive B/D and RIA focus.

We don't dabble in adjacent industries. This is all we do.

Who we serve.

Built exclusively for broker-dealers, RIAs, and the teams keeping them compliant.

Broker-Dealers

Independent B/Ds running commissions, suitability, and document imaging on one hosted platform — without stitching legacy tools together.

From spreadsheet chaos to one source of truth.

Disconnected spreadsheets, email threads, and one-off tools create the audit panic. Maestro replaces the tangle with one hosted platform.

Tangle of spreadsheets, documents, and alerts illustrating back-office chaos
STEP 01

Today.

Spreadsheets, fragmented tools, manual reconciliation, audit panic.

STEP 02

Implementation.

Hosted setup, US-based onboarding, data migration handled.

STEP 03

After Maestro.

One platform, automated processing, audit-ready records, time back.

Most firms come to Artisan stitched together with three or four tools and a stack of spreadsheets. Within a quarter, they're running on one platform — and getting their evenings back.

Before / After

What changes once you're on Artisan.

Before

Spreadsheets sprawled across the team.

Commissions in one workbook, suitability in another, reconciliations in email threads. Nothing ties together.

After

Maestro — one back-office platform.

Commissions, RIA fees, compliance, and document imaging all live in one hosted system of record.

Before

Compliance fire drills before every audit.

Reg BI, 17a-3, OFAC, and suitability checks scattered across people and tools. You only know there's an issue when the regulator asks.

After

Automated compliance monitoring.

Every transaction runs through aggregated checks. Exceptions route to the right staff dashboard the moment they trigger.

Before

Reps calling the back office for every commission question.

Statements, 1099s, license renewals, account submissions — all funneling through your operations team's inbox.

After

Repertoire — 24/7 rep self-service.

Reps get their own portal for commission data, document submissions, and license tracking. Your team gets its day back.

"We built Maestro to be the system we wished we'd had when we were running back offices ourselves. Every feature solves a problem we lived through."
