MichaelAI – An artificially intelligent investment analyst

We’re DJ & Josh, co-founders of MichaelAI( https://michaelai.io ) - we’re excited to share our new artificially intelligent investment analyst, Michael. Josh’s six-year stint at a hedge fund exposed him to the challenges of investment analysis. He had access to abundant resources, including data collected by junior analysts, detailed reports, refined data from third-party providers, and access to industry thought leaders. However, the process demands significant time commitment, continuous engagement with other parties, nuanced data, and the potential to miss out on crucial information. Recognizing these challenges, we believe Michael is at the beginning stages of addressing them. Our goal is to enhance the productivity and proficiency of investment analysts. You can interact with Michael via natural language(i.e., chat) or search features. From our perspective, the former is great for exploring unfamiliar companies, or broader topics, whereas the latter is useful for seeking specific information or data points. We currently draw data from resources like SEC filings, earnings call transcripts, conference transcripts, and standardized financial metrics. For alleviating uncertainty with hallucinations, both search and natural language contain a feature for highlighting which portion(s) of the original document(s) Michael’s responses originated from. Although currently limited to ~30 companies, new firms are added daily. Presently, our data pipeline incorporates leading language models, such as BERT, RoBERTa, and OpenAI's text-davinci-003, for formulating Michael's responses. We believe that our unique edge lies in refining and customizing our own internal Large Language Model (LLM) specifically to financial metrics and information. This approach, we believe, will big a big factor in Michael’s growth for lowered latencies, increased accuracy responses, multi-step financial metric calculations, and reductions in hallucinations. We firmly believe that Michael is positioned to upend the investment industry. We are excited to see the impact it has on investors.
