How it works

From scattered inboxes to a live system of record, in five steps.

Onboarding is white-glove. We connect your administrator, link your email, and watch the calendar populate against your own funds. Here is the path from day one to an examiner-ready record.

01

Connect

Connect your fund administrator

Ultimus links through a direct API connection. Other administrators come in by email and CSV, and files from your index calculation agent map per fund. Daily NAV, shares, holdings, and creation/redemption data start flowing into the record.

  • Ultimus direct API, per firm
  • Other administrators via email + CSV
  • Index calculation agent files mapped per fund
02

Link email

Link your email, read-only

Grant read-only access to Gmail or Microsoft 365. From then on, every fund document that lands in your inbox is auto-classified into the books-and-records vault under the correct retention class, integrity-checked with sha256, and tagged to its obligation and message of record.

  • Read-only Gmail or Microsoft 365 scopes
  • Auto-classification into nine retention categories
  • sha256 integrity + confidentiality flags
03

Seed

The calendar seeds itself

ETFcomply instantiates the obligation catalog against your active funds and fiscal dates. Fund-level rules fan out per fund; trust and adviser rules seed once per firm. Deadlines compute from each clock, roll forward off market holidays, and materialize 18 months out.

  • Fund-level rules per fund; trust rules once
  • Deadlines computed and business-day rolled
  • Instances materialized 18 months ahead
04

Monitor

Alerts arm and the checks run

Lead-time alerts fire the tightest bucket each obligation qualifies for, and an overdue alert follows if a due date passes with the item still open. The monitoring checks run on their schedule, each writing a full snapshot as its own auditable record.

  • Lead-time and overdue deadline alerts
  • Daily diversification, names-rule, and 6c-11 checks
  • Every check snapshot kept as evidence
05

Prove

Close with evidence, export on request

Mark an obligation complete by linking evidence or recording an explicit override note. When an examiner request or a board cycle arrives, export the matching bundle with its hashed manifest. The audit trail behind it is append-only.

  • Evidence-gated completion + waiver rationale
  • Five examiner export bundles
  • Append-only, tamper-evident trail

The regime is never frozen

When a rule is in flux, it carries a pending note and an effective-date range, so you see the change in the calendar without waiting on a software update. Nothing here is legal advice; confirm every date and applicability against current SEC and IRS releases and counsel.

Design partner onboarding is hands-on. We set up your administrator connection and seed the calendar before your first login.
