Caddi vs. Subatomic: Running Processes vs. an AI Chief of Staff

Both promise to take the busywork off an RIA's team. Subatomic hires you an AI Chief of Staff that reasons over your data and leaves advisors briefs and drafts to approve. Caddi finds the repetitive back-office processes and runs them end to end, the same way every time.

Subatomic describes itself as hiring, not buying. You hire an AI Chief of Staff that reads every system through Subatomic IQ, a knowledge graph of your firm, decides what matters and routes the work to specialist AI Co-Workers. By morning the advisor has a sourced brief, drafted replies and prepped meetings, and nothing is sent until a person approves it. Caddi is built for the operations work behind that: the processes that should run on their own, across your tools, with a record of every run.

Reasoning every time vs. running the same way every time

Subatomic's Co-Workers reason on your data to produce each piece of work. That is the right design for a reply to a client question or a meeting brief, where no two cases are the same. It is a harder fit for the processes operations runs hundreds of times a week, where the second run should look exactly like the first.

Caddi runs the fixed steps of a process as verified code and uses AI only for the judgment steps inside a run, such as reading a document or triaging an email, each one scoped, logged and reviewable. When an examiner asks what happened on an account, the answer is the run record.

Who finds the work, who builds it, who oversees it

Subatomic offers a Busywork Audit and a bench of prebuilt Co-Workers. Caddi's Discover reads the tools your team already uses and ranks the repeated work by estimated hours, with the evidence behind each finding. Automate turns a finding into a running automation, built by the person who does the work by showing it once, and Govern gives leadership one view of every automation by team and owner.

Best fit

Subatomic

That is what Subatomic's Chief of Staff is built to produce.

Subatomic hands advisors finished drafts to approve. Caddi takes the repeatable back-office processes off the team entirely: Discover finds them, the person who does each one shows Caddi once, and Govern keeps every run on the record.

Frequently asked questions

Is Caddi an alternative to Subatomic?

For much of the same busywork, with a different design. Subatomic sells an AI workforce: an AI Chief of Staff reads your CRM, custodians, planning software and documents through a knowledge graph it calls Subatomic IQ, decides what matters, and routes the work to specialist AI Co-Workers, who leave drafts and briefs for a person to approve. Caddi finds the repetitive back-office processes, has the person who does each one build it by showing it once, and runs it as verified code with every run logged.

Which is more reliable for high-volume operations work?

For a process you want done the same way every time, such as reconciliation, account opening or a change propagated to every system, Caddi runs the fixed steps as code and uses AI only for the judgment steps inside a run, each one scoped and logged. Subatomic's Co-Workers reason on your data to produce their work, which suits open-ended jobs like a meeting brief or a reply to a client question. The more a task repeats, the more deterministic execution matters.

What does each one produce?

Subatomic's Chief of Staff produces a morning of finished work for advisors: a sourced brief, drafted replies, prepped meetings and pending changes waiting for approval. Caddi produces running automations for the operations team: named processes that run on a trigger across your tools, with a record of every run.

Does Caddi build a knowledge graph of the firm?

No. Caddi does not build a firm-wide knowledge graph or a chat assistant over it. Discover reads your tools to find and rank the repetitive work, and each automation connects to the systems its process touches.

Is Subatomic ever the better choice?

Yes, when the goal is to give advisors an assistant that works their book overnight and hands them sourced briefs and drafts to approve. Caddi is the better fit for the operations processes behind the advisor that should run end to end the same way every time.

Can I try Caddi without a sales call?

Yes. The Individual plan is free and includes Discover and Automate. Govern, the firm-wide view, starts on the Team plan.
