Products that do what Bigwig – an Agentic News Site for financial markets does
Hey HN, For the last couple of months, we have been building an AI agent for continuous statistical analysis, and we're looking for feedback while it's still early in development. We call it BIGWIG - an autonomous agent that is specialised, and very good at, performing advanced statistical analysis, through long traces of iteration and reasoning. As it builds statistical models it also "emits" outputs back to the user that you can then interact with, iterate on and schedule for follow up analysis. While we're still in BETA, we've launched a public analysis site that showcases some of the…

Hey HN, we built an Econ+Finance database to let AI agents do investment research. We spend a lot of tokens to organize macro releases and SEC filings into a clean format, so that your agents have more context to do actual analysis. The problem AI agents are great at data analysis. But they become ineffective if most of their context window is spent on gathering and cleaning data, instead of validating hypotheses. Data in the wild is messy and rarely standardized. Definitions and measurements change over time. This problem is compounded by a fragmented data universe. Point solutions exist…

I built Hermes, an open-source Python framework for multi-agent financial research. Most AI “equity research” demos stop at generating text. In practice, real workflows require pulling structured XBRL financials from SEC filings, extracting labeled sections like MD&A and Risk Factors, merging macro and market data, building actual Excel models with formulas, and generating investment memos in Word or PDF. Hermes is designed to handle that full pipeline end to end. It includes 35 financial data tools covering SEC EDGAR (via edgartools), FRED, Yahoo Finance market data, and RSS-based financial…

Hi HN, We’re a small team working on 13Radar.com, which we launched about two weeks ago after 4 months of development. I’m the founder, and together with the team we’re building a platform that tracks hedge fund portfolios in real-time based on SEC Form 13F filings. AI has been a major helper in our workflow. For a single webpage, we often consult multiple AI systems in parallel, generating different versions and comparing them side by side before deciding on the final design or implementation. More than 60% of the research, design, and coding involved AI assistance. For UI design we used…

Hi HN, I’m Harrison, co-founder of Listed. Today we're launching our agentic platform to help your business win in the new age of AI. You can try the platform here: https://getlisted.ai And watch the launch video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJUPo6H78z8 The idea for this came from pure frustration. I asked ChatGPT about my own company and it hallucinated, inventing features and getting basic facts wrong. I realized there was no mechanism for a business to provide a verified source of truth to these models. This problem is now existential. With Google's AI…

I've been lurking on HN for years. You know the drill: interesting headline, 200+ comments, you dive in thinking "I'll just skim for 5 minutes"... and an hour later you're 36 chambers deep in a thread about memory allocation patterns in Postgres and you've completely forgotten what the original article was about. I don't just want a "summary" (which usually just shortens the noise). I want the meta-consensus: "What is the actual trade-off being debated? Who is winning the argument? Why does this matter?" So I built HNSignals. Think of it less like a "summarizer" and more like a Chief of…

hello everyone, my first post! AA here, founder of ⌘ Langbase.com — we are a developer platform for building and scaling serverless AI memory agents. I know surveys can be boring, but this one’s different—it’s interactive! That's very much intentional. My team and I have been up for the last 21 hours putting together this report. This was a looot of work, so I hope y'all like it. Introducing … State of AI Agents 2024 report On Langbase, we processed 184 billion tokens and handled 786 million AI agent runs from 36K developers. From all that data plus insights from 3.4K builders who filled out…

How it works (tech stack): -Built entirely with Lovabl.dev (no-code front-end + logic) -ChatGPT / Claude for research and inspiration -Powered by GPT-4 Vision to interpret charts visually -Hosted on Supabase for performance & caching It’s not meant to replace analysts — just to speed up how traders interpret data. I’m a designer exploring AI tools, and this is my first attempt to turn an idea into a functional product. Would love to know what you think.

Hey HN, as a former data analyst, I’ve been tooling around trying to get agents to do my old job. The result is this system that gets you maybe 80% of the way there. I think this is a good data point for what the current frontier models are capable of and where they are still lacking (in this case — hypothesis generation and general data intuition). Some initial learnings: - Generating web app-based reports goes much better if there are explicit templates/pre-defined components for the model to use. - Claude can “heal” broken charts if you give it access to chart images and run a…

I was super annoy that all stock news site are filled with distracting Ads and interrupting paywalls. My JP Morgan analyst friend told me that JP spend millions internally to train an AI on news to help their traders filter noise. With the new LLM, we decided to make it better. Research also shows using AI analyze news at scale can outperform the market. Our AI will gather, summarize, and extract news insights for a particular stock. We are testing with a few trading firms in beta and the results were pretty good already. If you are interested, please comment "interested" I will give you…

Hey HN! I built a thing and I'm really excited to share it. EDIT: I meant to link to the github, not the website: https://github.com/max-hq/max Like many of us here, I've been commonly reaching for a pattern of "pull data into db; give it to claude" for a while, whilst doing data spelunking or building tooling - for the same reasons mentioned by thellimist over here [1] and a few other recent "CLI vs MCP" posts. To that end, about a month ago I started building a project called `max` - its goal is to cut the middleman and schematise any data source for you. Essentially,…

Hey folks! This is a project that I've been working in my free time for the past few months. It's a news aggregator that uses AI to select relevant articles and summarize them. The default sources are frameworks and libraries' updates, popular HN topics, and languages' subreddits threads that make past a certain threshold. You can run a local instance (needs an OpenAI key) and customize it with your own sources, and adjust the prompt as well. The resulting website can be browsed at https://dev-radar.com/ My next experiment will be with local news. I'm building some feeds with…

Hey HN, I wanted to see what happens if you put a large group in control of a site that’s completely built and updated by an AI agent. See the site here: https://youarethepm.com. I first tried this with a small group of co-workers and it worked surprisingly well, so the obvious next step was: give it to a bigger group of strangers and see what we learn. This site is fully autonomous. An AI agent reads this thread, decides what to do, writes code, and ships updates on a virtual computer. I might step in if it gets totally stuck, but the goal is for the site to evolve primarily based…

Well, I wouldn't call it a framework, but rather an easy way to define tools and agents, allowing the agent to think and do the work. - Currently supports Open AI, and DeepSeek models. I tried building an HN title recommender agent with this framework that analyzes top-performing posts on HN and suggests titles for HN posts. And this was the agent's reply after inspecting 10 best posts: Having analyzed the top 10 performing posts on Hacker News, we've observed that successful titles are often concise, intriguing, and sometimes provocative or impactful. They tend to evoke curiosity, highlight…

For the last few months I have been analysing Peter Lynch’s books on stock picking and doing prompt engineering to check if AI could create useful stock analyses. To my surprise it started making reports that allow me to understand companies much faster with well cited sources. I hope you find it interesting and useful :) Perter Lynch’s books I analyzed: Learn to earn, One up on Wall Street, Beating the street

Think of HackerNews, but only for AI content. Did build this out of the wish for easier discoverability of new technologies in the AI/ML space. Obviously, so far only a tiny small community, but maybe a few of you find it nice to be around and want to post a link there every now and then :)
