Praxent helps established RIA with mobile app development, Plaid and DriveWealth integrations
Praxent, a fintech design and engineering partner to financial companies, announced that it has supported the launch of alooola, an education-based wealth management and investment advisory platform.
“With our design and development expertise and integration guidance, Glen Eagle has been able to turn their vision into reality, all with a shortened development cycle and reduced total cost of ownership.

Founded by Glen Eagle (RIA Glen Eagle Advisors/Broker-Dealer Glen Eagle Wealth), alooola was designed to satisfy the unmet wealth management needs of younger generation investors through specialized education and financial advisory services. Initially partnering with organizations and universities to provide education and resources, the investment firm immediately recognized the need for a digital-first solution to effectively serve its clients. Glen Eagle needed to automate the onboarding process and create an intuitive mobile application with robust functionality in order to improve the user experience and scale.

The result is a modern, digitally optimized option for younger investors to better manage their finances.
“As Millennials continue to accumulate greater wealth, we recognized that there wasn’t a solution in the market that addressed this generation’s unique needs and digital affinities,” said Rob Michel, Chief Investment Officer, Glen Eagle Advisors, and Head of Investments, alooola. “Working with Praxent, we were able to quickly and cost effectively create a seamless, intuitive mobile app that allows modern investors to better prepare for their financial futures while allowing our business to remain relevant with the next generation.”
