What we do
The next generation family office advisory, built on primary research, enabled by tech.
Simple is built for the future generations of family offices. A new hybrid of family office advisory and technology company. We work with several different cases, from principals setting up a single family office for the first time, to established family office teams rebuilding how they operate, and with the providers who serve them.
Our work usually starts with an assessment to determine where the office is at. That could reveal questions about structure. How many people & roles the office needs. Which functions belong in-house and which are better outsourced. What a reporting stack should look like when the portfolio spans multiple custodians, operating businesses and portfolios. And now in the AI era, we also dive into where AI genuinely helps with automation & efficiencies and where it introduces risk that a family office should carry.
We answer those questions with three main tools. Original research, including our annual family office software and technology review and our thematic reports on private markets, security and governance, service design and more. A structured advisory engagement through our Explore, Design, Build and Operate framework. And purpose-built tools: the Simple Platform for managing and powering an AI transformation, and other bespoke tools such as Simple Select for running an RFP of software and service providers.
Around 12,000 users across the spectrum from single family offices, multi-family offices and principal households use Simple. We also have a handpicked network of partners who are close collaborators. More than 100 technology and service providers are vetted and listed in our directory, each reviewed for capabilities and family office fit.

How we work
Our framework powers AI-readiness and family office transformation
After helping hundreds of family offices step into the right technology solutions, we have developed a 4-stage framework to help family offices prepare for AI and transform their operations.
Explore
Strategic assessment, AI readiness and a dynamic roadmap. We map how the office runs today, where the friction sits, and what is realistic to change in the next twelve months.
Learn more about Explore
Design
Target operating model, governance and service design. We define the roles, decision rights and reporting rhythm the office needs, then design the technology stack around them rather than the other way round.
Learn more about Design
Build
Selection, implementation and integration. We run the provider evaluation, manage the implementation and make sure the data foundation holds before any AI layer goes on top of it.
Learn more about Build
Operate
Ongoing support, benchmarking and iteration. Family offices are not static. We stay on to measure what changed, retrain the team and adjust as the family and the portfolio evolve.

The questions family offices ask us most
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Simple is a global family office advisory and technology company. We combine research, advisory services and purpose-built software to help family offices set up, professionalise and adopt AI. We work with principals, in-house family office teams, and the service providers who support them.
Most engagements follow our four-stage framework. We start with a general strategic assessment and then an AI readiness assessment. From there we help design a target operating model and governance structure, run the selection and implementation of the technology stack, then stay on to support and benchmark the office as it runs. Alongside the advisory work, members get access to our research library, provider directory and expert network.
There is no asset or wealth threshold. We work with newly formed single family offices, with multi-family offices, and with established institutions running several billion. What matters more than size is whether the family is at a decision point about structure, technology or succession.
Simple Select is our structured evaluation platform for family office software and service providers. It turns an unstructured search into a documented process: requirements, shortlist, scored comparison and a record of why the decision was made. It is designed to survive scrutiny from a board or a next-generation family member.
No. Simple is independent of the providers listed in our directory and we do not manage assets. That independence is what makes our research and our provider evaluations useful.
Our team operates from various hubs in Copenhagen, Zurich, London, Amsterdam, Barcelona, New York, Los Angeles and Cape Town, with clients globally and an on-the-ground network in most major family office jurisdictions.

Giovanni Bacarella
Partner, FTV Capital
As a single family office starting from scratch, I found the Simple platform hugely helpful. Within the premium service, the team provided critical feedback to my design strategy for the build. They were also game-changing when it came to selecting the most important tool in my office, the portfolio software vendor. A big fan of Simple.
