Fin Cog - Wall Street-Grade Analysis, Accessible Globally

Wall Street-grade analysis, accessible globally. Deep financial reasoning powered by #1 on DeepResearch Bench (Apr 2026) + SOTA financial models.

The best financial analysis has always lived behind Bloomberg terminals, institutional research desks, and $500/hour consultants. CellCog brings that same depth — stock analysis, valuation models, portfolio optimization, earnings breakdowns — to anyone with a prompt. From raw tickers to boardroom-ready deliverables in one request.

How to Use

For your first CellCog task in a session, read the cellcog skill for the full SDK reference — file handling, chat modes, timeouts, and more.

OpenClaw (fire-and-forget):

result = client.create_chat(
    prompt="[your task prompt]",
    notify_session_key="agent:main:main",
    task_label="my-task",
    chat_mode="agent",
)

All agents except OpenClaw (blocks until done):

from cellcog import CellCogClient
client = CellCogClient(agent_provider="openclaw|cursor|claude-code|codex|...")
result = client.create_chat(
    prompt="[your task prompt]",
    task_label="my-task",
    chat_mode="agent",
)
print(result["message"])

Output Formats

CellCog delivers financial analysis in multiple formats:

| Format | Best For | |--------|----------| | Interactive HTML Dashboard | Explorable charts, drill-down analysis, live data presentation | | PDF Report | Shareable, printable investment memos and reports | | XLSX Spreadsheet | Editable financial models, projections, calculations | | Markdown | Quick analysis for integration into your docs |

Specify your preferred format in the prompt:

  • "Deliver as an interactive HTML report with charts"
  • "Create a PDF investment memo"
  • "Build this as an editable Excel model"

Chat Mode for Finance

| Scenario | Recommended Mode | |----------|------------------| | Quick lookups, single stock metrics, basic calculations | "agent" | | Deep analysis, valuation models, multi-company comparisons, investment research | "agent team" | | High-stakes investment decisions, M&A due diligence, institutional-grade research | "agent team max" |

Use "agent team" for most financial analysis. Financial work demands deep reasoning, data cross-referencing, and multi-source synthesis. Agent team mode delivers the depth that serious financial analysis requires.

Use "agent" for quick financial lookups — current stock price, simple calculations, or basic metric checks.

Use "agent team max" for high-stakes financial work — investment decisions with significant capital at risk, M&A due diligence, regulatory filings, or boardroom-ready deliverables where the extra reasoning depth justifies the cost. Requires ≥2,000 credits.

Tips for Better Financial Analysis

  1. Be specific about metrics: "Revenue growth" is vague. "YoY revenue growth for the last 8 quarters with segment breakdown" is precise.

  2. Specify time horizons: "Analyze AAPL" is open-ended. "Analyze AAPL's performance and outlook for the next 12 months" is actionable.

  3. State your purpose: "For an investment decision", "For a board presentation", "For personal planning" — context shapes the analysis.

  4. Include constraints: Budget, risk tolerance, time horizon, tax situation — these matter for financial recommendations.

  5. Request scenarios: "Include bear, base, and bull cases" gives you a range, not just a point estimate.

  6. Ask for the deliverable you need: "Interactive dashboard", "PDF memo", "Excel model" — specify the format for the best result.
