Nudge, nudge, wink, wink…

Knudge integrates with Quin

From “We’ll do that” to “It’s done”

Client follow-through shouldn’t depend on sticky notes, memory, or extra admin work.

The Quin + Knudge integration connects Quin’s AI-powered meeting intelligence with Knudge’s proven client reminder system—so the commitments made in conversations actually turn into completed actions.


What is Quin?

Quin is an AI assistant built to eliminate the busywork that follows meetings. It listens to conversations, captures key takeaways, and automatically creates tasks, follow-ups, and drafts—without disrupting your workflow.

Instead of spending time translating meeting notes into action items, Quin does it for you—accurately, instantly, and in context.

With Quin, advisors can:

  • Capture action items directly from meetings and conversations

  • Automatically generate tasks, […]

Engineering: Security on the Internet

Your antivirus software might not be acting in your best interest. We, at Knudge, have encountered multiple instances of cybersecurity software interfering with our user’s connection to our service. When we dug into why, we found that many of these cybersecurity solutions were eroding security and monitoring user traffic, all without end users being aware of exactly what was happening.

“Cybersecurity”

Hi there! This is Logan with Knudge Engineering. I’m passionate about security best-practices, especially realistic ones — things that keep data safe without users having to bend over backwards. Things that can simultaneously make a system easier to use, while also improving its overall “security posture” (how secure a system is overall). This article is meant for a non-technical audience, but please do reach out to us if you’d like to know more, or if there’s anything that could use further […]

Advisor Spotlight – TJ van Gerven of Modern Wealth Builders

For this equity comp advisor, Knudge is his daily driver for client communication.

When TJ van Gerven reaches out to clients, most often, he does it with a nudge.

The Boston-based advisor serves millennials receiving equity comp and kicks off the relationship with a nudge to upload their docs into the Right Capital vault. As he works through the initial planning process – in his case, this is a monthly meeting for the first quarter – he will send a follow-up Loom video embedded in a nudge.

Once the relationship is in flight, TJ sends a variety of nudges to keep it running smoothly.

“I try to use it for everything now,” he said. “[Especially] because it integrates with Wealthbox for notes.”

On a quarterly basis, clients receive informational nudges (these are nudges that send just one notification) to invite them to schedule a […]

Overcoming the Status Quo Bias with the Fresh Start Effect

Here at Knudge, we’ve noticed that some of our new members take a long time to start assigning nudges to their clients. Behavioral economics research tells us why.

One of the biggest barriers to behavior change is the Status Quo Bias: the tendency to stick to whatever path we’re on, even when we are convinced that better things await us on a different path. It’s the psychological version of physics’ inertia. It keeps us right where we are because switching to something new and better is just so much more… effortful at the beginning.

If you’re like most Knudge users, you signed up with Knudge for one or more of the following excellent reasons:

  • You want to make it easier for your clients to remember and complete their To Do list.
  • You want to cut […]
