Fira Launches: Agentic AI Analyst
"Fira saves financial analysts' time by searching, analysing, and citing thousands of UK company filings."
TL;DR - Fira is building an agentic AI analyst for financial research and automation, starting with UK investment firms. They accelerate analysts with source-cited insights and verified calculations from complex company filings.
Founded by Alex Tkachenko & Alexey Taktarov
Alexey and Alex are both technical founders, met 9 years ago at university and been close friends since.
Alexey was CTO and co-founder of resume.io, one of the largest resume builder websites (acquired in 2021). He’s also an author of wouter, a React router library with 7k stars and 580k downloads/month, and a regular tech conference speaker.
Alex was the founder and CEO of Hashscan, on-chain user analytics startup. Previously, he built a popular crypto porftolio tracker app Hodler (sold in 2022).
Problem
Analysts at investment banks and boutique M&A firms waste tons of time digging through hundred-page annual reports to prepare pitch decks and models. General LLM tools aren't good enough for the job — lacking accuracy, domain-specific data, and output verification. The problem extends to senior professionals who need to quickly understand new topics deeply while staying grounded in truthful data sources.
Solution
Fira saves analysts time by instantly searching, analyzing and citing UK company filings. It reads multiple filings and reports (including 500 page long and scanned documents) to provide source-cited answers and verifiable calculations. They cover hundreds of public UK companies, integrate with Companies House for private company data, and allow to upload your documents.
Use cases
I. Breakdown detailed financial and operational KPIs in seconds

II. Perform general research on data scattered across reports and filings

III. Fira calculates financial metrics it can't find, providing transparency in formula and variables used
