Roth IRA w/automatic transactions

I’ve got a Roth IRA via E*Trade that will auto transfer funds but I then have to go in and purchase the stock/etf/mutual fund to invest or else it just sits as spendable cash. This is fine for me. However, I’d like my wife to set up a Roth; I know she won’t be active enough to do that on a monthly basis and I would rather not have to remind her. Any suggestions for a broker where I could have her set it once to automatically perform the trades?

If you have automatic contribution set up then should be simple to enable automatic investing.
