A robo-advisor invests your money for you in a ready-made mix of funds and rebalances it automatically, usually for a small yearly fee (a percentage of your balance) or a flat monthly fee. Fund expenses are extra. Here's what each one says it charges, the minimum to start, and whether it offers tax-loss harvesting (selling losers to cut your tax bill, useful only in taxable accounts).
