Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but nearly every bank I've ever used offers this feature. I currently have auto-transfers and auto-investments set up in Fidelity. If you receive a paycheck, you can easily set up Fidelity so that it automatically transfers $xxxx dollars per month to whatever account you like. You can also set up each account to automatically purchase $xxxx dollars worth of whatever equity you want.

Yeah you're saying x dollars instead of y dollars over z amount. It's a trivial calculation but it's really convenient
Do you bank with fidelity to be able to do this?
I have a brokerage account at Fidelity, which I can write checks on, but I only use the account for investing. I guess theoretically you could use it as a primary bank account? I have some auto-transfers into the account each month, that automatically get invested, and some auto-transfers out to non-Fidelity accounts so I can invest proceeds in things Fidelity doesn't offer.
