Provafi

I'm Matt, a financial analyst who got tired of waiting weeks for Quality of Earnings reports as a part of financial due diligence. The problem hits anyone evaluating acquisitions, investments, or partnerships: - QoE reports cost $20k-$40k and take 2+ weeks, even for smaller deals - Fees aren't recoverable when deals fall through - Delays kill momentum – many red flags could be spotted immediately - You're stuck doing manual Excel cleanup while waiting for basic insights So I built Provafi – an AI-powered tool that gives you the core financial insights in minutes, not weeks: - Instant data…

Provafi launched on October 8, 2025 with 7 votes, #2,779 of 8,178 launches that month. The site was still online in September 2026, 1 year on.

What it does

Buyers of small businesses shouldn't have to pay $30k+ for a Quality of Earnings report, only to have the deal fail. Provafi bridges the gap with a “Phase 1” AI QoE with clean financials, red flags, and insights in minutes so you can make fast deal decisions.

We help buyers uncover hidden risks and sellers substantiate earnings before a transaction. Every QoE is reviewed by a CFA charterholder with 14 years of M&A experience and purpose-built for small business deals under $10M. We run the diligence process and deliver clear analysis so buyers can assess risk and sellers can prepare for transaction questions. Intro call to confirm fit, scope, and timing. NDA as needed. Preliminary financials uploaded. Engagement letter signed. Kickoff call. Full information request and data exchange. Initial findings package, review call, and follow-up with management or the bookkeeper as needed. Draft for review, then final report and databook. Deal-period…from provafi.com

    I made a free tool that analyzes SEC filings and posts detailed reports2025 · signalbloom.ai · ▲292

    (* within a few minutes of SEC filing) Currently does it for 1000+ US companies and specifically earnings related filings. By US companies, I mean the ones that are obliged to file SEC filings. This was the result of almost a year long effort and hundreds of prototypes :) It currently auto-publishes for 1000 ish US companies by market cap, relies on 8-K filing as a trigger. e.g. https://www.signalbloom.ai/news/NVDA will take you to NVDA earnings Would be grateful to get some feedback. Especially if you follow a company, check its reports out. Thank you! Some examples:…

    We just released an MCP server that lets Claude (or any MCP client) pull real-time and historical financial data: equities, options chains, crypto, FX, commodities, fundamentals, economic indicators, and 50+ technical signals. You can ask things like: “Plot NVDA’s RSI vs AMD’s over the past year.” “Show the yield curve shift since 2020.” “What are Apple’s recent earnings surprise trends? “Make a 3-statement model for ORCL.” Claude runs the requests, does the math, and returns the data or generates charts/models all inside the chat. Setup takes about a minute. You’ll need Claude Pro…

  • I built AI that turns 4 hours of financial analysis into 30 seconds2025 · duebase.com · ▲15

    I built Duebase AI to solve a problem I kept running into in fintech - analyzing UK company financial health takes forever. The process usually goes: download PDFs from Companies House → manually extract data to spreadsheets → calculate ratios → interpret trends. Takes 3-4 hours per company and requires serious financial expertise. The technical challenge: Companies House filings are messy. Inconsistent formats, complex accounting structures, missing data, and you need to understand UK accounting standards to make sense of it all. My approach: Parse 15M+ UK company records from Companies…

    A big part of the workflow of investors in individual stocks is doing research and due diligence on companies. Without proper and thorough due diligence an investor may be flying blind in their investment decisions. Due diligence is so time consuming and tedious, many investors don't do it. Doing due diligence involves reading a lot of documents (10Ks, 10Qs, 8Ks, earnings call transcripts, etc.) and analyzing years of financial statements. You also need to research key executives - their biographies, compensation, tenure, etc. Analyzing this amount of information leaves room for missing key…

  • I went down the rabbit hole on a side project and ended up building this: Strange Attractors(https://blog.shashanktomar.com/posts/strange-attractors). It’s built with three.js. Working on it reminded me of the little "maths for fun" exercises I used to do while learning programming in early days. Just trying things out, getting fascinated and geeky, and being surprised by the results. I spent way too much time on this, but it was extreme fun. My favorite part: someone pointed me to the Simone Attractor on Threads. It is a 2D attractor and I asked GPT to extrapolate it to…

  • Hey all, I built this. It’s not trying to capture every autistic experience (that’d be impossible). It’s based on my own lived experience as well as that of friends on the spectrum. I'm trying to give people a feel for what masking, decision fatigue, and burnout can look like day-to-day. That’s hard to explain in words, but easier to show through choices and stats. I'm not trying to "define autism". I’ve gotten good feedback here about resilience, meds, and difficulty tuning. I’ll keep tweaking it. If even a few people walk away thinking, "ah, maybe that’s why my coworker struggles in those…
