News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

I’m a quant who taught ML in finance at NYU for 4 years, and have spent ~6 months building an AI workflow that produces long-form equity primer reports. Not selling anything; I’m looking for blunt feedback from analysts who do equity research for a living.

What it does (brief)

    Pulls public sources (filings, transcripts, ownership/insider, patent/R&D mentions, sentiment).

    Outputs a structured primer (business model, KPIs, financials/ratios, risks, comp set, pipeline/innovation, catalysts).

    All points are citation-backed to public links; no paywalled sell-side.
Where I need your critique

    Biggest gaps vs. credible sell-side/independent work?

    Sections you’d cut/condense for real-world usability?

    Where would you not trust automation without a human pass?

    Preferred output format: single PDF/HTML vs modular notes?
Sample (mods: if links aren’t allowed, I’ll remove): RIG (Transocean) primer (HTML): https://storage.googleapis.com/derek-snow-at-outlook-co-nz-p...

Happy to answer technical/process questions in the thread. No DMs, no waitlists, just trying to make this genuinely useful for practitioners.

That is awesome, I have proposal for you, I currently run a niche notion website ml-quant.com, it could be much bigger and better than it is, the quant finance community is humongous and there is no central source for them, I have around 200 people on the website per day running all the important scrapers. Again this could be much bigger! I have a community both on a newsletter and on Linkedin. Let me know if this is something you would like to help me build, I would like to create a membership tier in 3-4 months. I am happy to go 50/50, you can get me on github for contacts https://github.com/firmai.
Interesting, unrelated, but related to your intro, what is the best open source datasets for maritime data?
The framework includes transformation from tensors, matrices, and vectors. It includes a range of encodings and decompositions such as Gramian Angular Encoding, Recurrence Plot, Markov Transition Fields, Matrix Product State, CANDECOMP, and Tucker Decompositions.
