A Budget Approach Incorporating No-code Tools And AI
As a start-up fund with nearly no research budget, I've been exploring ways to access information without the luxury of a Bloomberg or Factset subscription. In the video below, I walk through a tool I've put together combining a couple affordable services, which I use to generate a database of earnings call transcripts summarized and analyzed by Anthropic's Claude AI.
Earnings transcripts come from a company called Financial Modeling Prep, which offers a tremendous amount of market data at a bargain basement price. The downside is that the interface and outputs are a bit cumbersome, which necessitates some creativity in establishing a workflow.
To do that, I've been using Zapier and Airtalbe to make API pulls, transform data and organize the results. Watch the video to see how it all comes together.
