Hivi-X vs Redtail for client document collection

Redtail is a CRM for contacts, tasks, and calendar workflows. Hivi-X is a document-collection layer: reusable KYC and planning checklists, missing-item tracking on client uploads via my-id.ca, item-level approve/reject, and exportable intake packages for your CRM folder. They solve different problems and are often used together.

Canadian boutiques often run Redtail for CRM — but tax returns, insurance policies, and estate documents still arrive in email. Redtail's client portal and document features are not built around checklist-driven intake with missing-item dashboards.

Hivi-X sits alongside Redtail: collect and review household documents, then export a PDF package into the Redtail client folder or your compliance archive. Redtail remains your system of record for relationships and tasks.

FAQ

Redtail offers CRM document storage and some client-facing features, but it is not purpose-built for checklist-driven intake with missing-item tracking and approve/reject per line item. Hivi-X handles that collection step and exports packages for Redtail.

No. Use Redtail for CRM and Hivi-X for household document intake. Export organized packages from Hivi-X into your Redtail workflow.

General information only — not legal, compliance, or investment advice. Hivi-X is document-collection software, not a registrant, KYC verifier, or AML screening service. KYC, suitability, and AML obligations remain with your firm. Consult qualified compliance counsel for your registration category.
