Portrait of Jeremi Karnell

01 — About

Two decades in wealth and asset management.

Two companies founded and sold, one of them to the company I then ran data and analytics for.

Advisors don't have a data problem. They have more signal than anyone could read in a lifetime. What's scarce is judgment, and judgment doesn't scale by hiring.

As Head of Data & Analytics at Envestnet I owned the Decision Intelligence strategy end to end: the roadmap, the economics, the competitive analysis, and the go-to-market. I set the direction, made the case for the investment, and stayed accountable for whether it paid off.

03 — Workbench

The network

HnyComb

My Wealth-Tech Workbench

A set of MCP-native apps I design and build myself, then wire together into one system. They’re how I stay close to where AI is actually landing in wealth management — building the real thing beats theorizing about it. Each is live and public; together they test one bet: the agents that will run wealth work need a trustworthy tool layer underneath them, not another dashboard.
