Finology

Our Goal is to Help Financial Advisors Scale with Personalized 
Student Loan Repayment Tools

We deliver trusted, transparent, and compliant technology that empowers financial advisors to help clients navigate federal student loan repayment, while protecting the client relationship and scaling their business.

Your Platform for Student Loan Planning

It’s our experience that student loan repayment should be personalized by RIAs, not outsourced. Finology Software is the essential platform advisors use to provide strategy, generate clear action steps, and guide clients to enroll in federal plans themselves.

Strategy That Evolves With You

Our vision is to replace confusion with clarity and confidence. We have built the infrastructure for “mini-financial plans” on student debt: enabling real-time visibility, proactive strategy updates, and long-term tracking as life and income evolve.

Our Track Record

Across two generations of software, our team has helped support more than $1 billion in federal student loan planning, and we’re just getting started!
