On July 15, 2026, Wells Fargo announced AI Teammate, an AI capability embedded in its Advisor Gateway platform to help advisors and support teams retrieve information, draft communications, and complete administrative tasks, as part of its broader strategy to use AI to deepen client relationships and gain wealth-management market share.
