Run persistent financial research with an agent

LangAlpha is a Claude Code-style agent for investing research that keeps persistent workspaces and memory so analysis such as models and comps can be updated across sessions.

Done with a custom-built or unnamed agent

What they did
You create one workspace per research goal, such as a Q2 rebalance. The agent interviews you about goals and style, then writes code in a Daytona sandbox to pull financial data and build deliverables like DCF or comps models. It saves files and an agent.md notes file in the workspace. Parallel subagents handle sub-tasks, and you can steer mid-run.
How it went
The README gives no measured results. It shows a comps run that produced an Excel model and PDF report with implied price ranges for NVDA, AMD and GOOGL. Later sessions resume from the saved files and notes.
Worth knowing
You can self-host with just Docker and your own LLM key, but without data keys you get reduced Yahoo Finance data. Price-triggered automations and channel integrations are hosted-only.

Try it yourself with Claude Code

Create a persistent research workspace for [company or ticker] in [folder]. Gather its latest filings and news, build a simple financial model and a comps table against [peers], and write notes on assumptions in a memory file. Next time I ask, update the model with new data and summarize what changed. Finish by showing the first model and notes.
