Dynamic Planner profiles the risk and models the plan. Avagance runs the firm around it, by voice.
Dynamic Planner is one of the most established platforms in UK advice, and it's genuinely broad: risk profiling, cashflow modelling, suitability, investment research and the ongoing review process. It isn't a note-taker with a marketing budget. The difference is what happens around the plan, so here is the comparison, capability by capability.

Moving from Dynamic Planner, step by step
- Decide if you're replacing or addingPlenty of firms will keep a risk-profiling process they trust. Be clear which job you're actually solving before you move anything.
- Start where the hours goRun one workflow in Avagance end to end, usually new client onboarding, and leave profiling where it is.
- Compare the work after the planThe plan is the easy part to compare. Look at the LOA, the provider forms, the report drafting and the chasing, which is where the week disappears.
- Consolidate only what earns itIf the profiling stays, fine. The test is total hours per case, not how many logos you removed.
Dynamic Planner, in one read
A deep, mature platform built around risk profiling and the review process, with cashflow, research and suitability alongside it. Two decades of credibility and used across a large share of the market. The gaps against Avagance are agentic: no per-client workspace, no voice, no adviser mobile app, and the paperwork after the recommendation is still yours to do.
Avagance vs Dynamic Planner: common questions
Is Avagance a Dynamic Planner alternative?
For the advice workflow, yes. Both cover suitability, cashflow and research. Avagance adds the agentic layer around them: a per-client workspace, voice-driven task execution, letter of authority generation and sending, provider form filling, and a fail-closed sign-off gate.
What does Avagance do that Dynamic Planner doesn't?
Voice-driven task execution and navigation across the platform, a persistent per-client agentic workspace, a native adviser mobile app, and the provider paperwork end to end. Dynamic Planner has announced agentic AI rather than shipped the equivalent.
Where is Dynamic Planner strong?
Risk profiling and fund certification, which is what it's known for, plus a mature review process and genuine depth in research and cashflow. If your firm is built around that process, it's a serious platform and we won't pretend otherwise.
Do we have to give up our risk-profiling process?
No. The honest answer is that many firms should not. Avagance is the operating system that runs the work around the plan, and that question is worth answering on hours per case rather than on principle.
How does pricing compare?
Ours is published on the pricing page: £350 a month for a solo practice, £600 for 2 advisers. Dynamic Planner is sales-gated, with AI features on a separate review licence, so you'll need a quote to compare properly.
