I recommend Fidelity and target date funds. They provide free wire transfers and a cash management account (fancy checking account). You contribute cash to an account (taxable, tax advantaged, etc), buy more of a position (like the above recommended target date fund), and wait until retirement or some other event requiring liquidity. They also have a very well put together donor advised fund (DAF) setup, as well as branch locations across the US. Very nice mobile apps are also a plus.

ITOT is an ETF equivalent of Vanguard’s VTI if you’re looking for something without automatic temporal rebalancing like a target date fund.

+1 on fidelity. Website and app are easy to use, good documentation, and their support is actually useful. You can call them up, get someone in the US who holds a bunch a of certifications, and ask whatever questions you want.

You can also rename accounts, which is something I oddly miss in other platforms.
