The investment landscape is constantly evolving, and over the past few years, a seismic shift has been driven by the increasing power of AI financial research tools and large language models (LLMs). The future of successful investing hinges on surfacing accurate and actionable insights from primary sources & qualified financial content, not within days or weeks, but nearly instantly.
Pioneering AI financial research companies are leading this charge, redefining what's possible.
When conducting financial research in the pre-AI Era, Google search was one of the dominant tools that professionals and individual investors used to research a company. One can find the company's website, articles referencing the company, news articles discussing recent company updates, and mentions of the company and its products on specific social media platforms or walled gardens.
With a bit of Google search and hours reading through the 10-K, you can figure out:
Every nugget of information gleaned from research would often spawn more questions, sending you back to the search bar for another round. It was an iterative, manual slog:
As investors, we were slowly assembling a mental mosaic of the company, its competitors, customers, suppliers, and other stakeholders in the ecosystem, hoping we did not miss a crucial piece or misinterpret a signal.
This took weeks or days of work.
In today’s AI era, the traditional paradigm of Google search is being challenged by the ability of LLMs to deliver synthesis and personalization. ChatGPT is increasingly supplanting Google by integrating real-time web data, pre-trained knowledge (spanning decades of scientific, technical, and financial history), and advanced summarization tailored to the user’s analytical lens.
For investors, this shift isn’t just about efficiency; it’s about gaining a competitive edge in a hyper-competitive market.
As investors, we’ve found two promising use cases for ChatGPT:
You have 100-200 pages to read in the next hour or two. Instead of skimming or highlighting phrases, you can now download the transcripts or 10-K into a PDF, then drop the PDF into ChatGPT. The LLM will scan every table, footnote, and management comment in seconds, then return an efficient executive summary.
Better yet, the summary isn’t one-size-fits-all. You can follow up with highly tailored prompts:
Because the full document remains in the model’s working memory, ChatGPT can quickly quote, cross-reference, and explain any passage you ask. This turns a static PDF into an interactive knowledge base that answers your questions on demand.
This capability fundamentally transforms the research process, moving beyond mere keyword searches to a deeper, contextual understanding of the material. No human analyst could replicate this breadth and speed of analysis, especially when cross-referencing disparate sections of lengthy documents.
Finally, the iterative nature of ChatGPT enables you to drill down into specifics, allowing you to build your mind map of the connections. Ultimately, this empowers investors to make more informed decisions with unprecedented efficiency and confidence.
This simply costs you $20 per month to get the Plus version. This is a remarkable step forward.
However, for investors relying on this for critical decisions, the manual process of finding, downloading, and uploading individual documents can still be a bottleneck. And you’re also likely to miss the other 20-30 companies that mentioned the same topic, but whose transcripts or filings you did not upload. Ultimately, the quality of summarization depends heavily on the model's training without specific guardrails.
OpenAI’s Deep Research, launched in February 2025, introduces a new agentic mode into ChatGPT that conducts multi-step web investigations and delivers a fully cited report in minutes. Suppose an investor is trying to wrap their head around an industry trend, the fundamental building blocks of certain science or technology, or the nuances of MRNA. In that case, Deep Research can build a surprisingly solid initial knowledge foundation.
It won't replace expert analysis, but it provides a base level to start your in-depth investigation. Deep Research does this through an agentic workflow:
Take the Deep Research capabilities further by dropping one or two 10-Ks, transcripts, or a white paper. Provide a tailored prompt to delve deeper into the competition or elaborate on the top 5 risk factors associated with a new technology shift. We’ve seen Deep Research spend 5 to 10 minutes, crawl 30-60 websites, scan and synthesize data, and provide a reasonable analysis.
While tools like ChatGPT offer a glimpse into the power of AI for research, they often require significant manual effort, lack specialized financial datasets, and may not provide the pinpoint accuracy and source verification that investment professionals demand. This is precisely where Enlo AI transforms your investing workflow.
We understand that your time is valuable, and in a world drowning in data, it’s essential to surface accurate and actionable insights.
Unlike consumer-grade, general-purpose AI that requires you to provide context, Enlo AI operates on a vast, curated repository of a decade's worth of SEC filings, transcripts, presentations, and historical financials for over 1,300 top companies tradable on US stock exchanges. This means you're not just summarizing isolated PDFs; you're querying an interconnected financial knowledge base.
We have parsed, organized, and pre-processed the filings into tens of millions of data points; sometimes transforming presentation images into actionable insights. You gain insights grounded exclusively in primary source data; no need to sift through blogs or forums.
Our system doesn't just use one LLM; we employ an average of seven specialized models per chat, each with parameters tuned for factual accuracy. Each step of our 'Enlo Algorithm' is optimized for financial analysis, from reasoning to double verification and arithmetic checks.
Crucially, every datapoint is cited directly to its source document, giving you instant verification and the ability to dive deeper with confidence – a level of transparency and reliability essential for professional decision-making.
