Our take
Managing your finances can be a job in and of itself - working out where to invest or when to use credit among other challenges. M1 sets out to make your life easier with its customizable, automated portfolio management app.
It operates as something between a robo-advisor and a brokerage, offering over 80 pre-prepared portfolios with a wide range of asset allocations. Users can choose a pre-existing template or build their own portfolio, and similarly, users take active control over investments or let M1 automate them. The app is completely free but offers a premium subscription service for those who want lower rates and more investment windows.
With over $6 billion in assets, M1 has grown significantly since 2020, almost tripling in size in three years and becoming a unicorn.
