Quarterly model review, from 120 hours to 12
The situation
Every quarter, an analyst spent around 120 hours updating the financial models for the listed companies the firm covers: pulling figures out of company reports, validating them, and cross-referencing them. Slow, manual, and exposed to human error at exactly the points that matter most.
What we deployed
A Due Diligence Agent, running inside the firm's own environment. It extracts the numbers from the company reports, checks them against the models, cross-references across documents, and flags anything that does not reconcile for a person to review.
The result
The quarterly review dropped from 120 hours per analyst to 12, delivered inside one week. Along the way the agent surfaced five forecasting errors that had gone undetected across several analysts and several years. The analyst's time moved from data gathering to judgment.
