Legacy platforms weren't built for how advisers work today. P1 is. Better tools, clearer pricing, professional reports, and genuine value for money.

P1's CEO, James Priday, knows exactly how you feel. He spent 15 years as an adviser losing time to clunky platforms that charged premium fees for basic functionality. In 2016, he built P1 around one idea: your platform should help you serve clients, not drown you in admin.

The UK's fastest growing platform

Ten years on, from one frustrated adviser to 100+ firms and £1.15 billion in assets. Profitable, employee-owned, and voted the UK's #1 platform four years running. 2026 brings our biggest update yet: a completely redesigned interface.

Recognition that matters.

Two types of validation: Schroders Platform Awards from industry experts, and #1 overall from Platforum's adviser panel, four years running. Industry recognition matters. But adviser votes matter more.
