Farsight offers an AI platform that embeds into existing workflows to automate and customize complex financial processes like CIM generation and DCF modeling, integrating with enterprise systems for institutional investors.
About Farsight AI Farsight is the agentic AI platform for financial services, currently helping investment banks and private equity firms fully automate entire, highly nuanced workflows. Today, institutions will spend 80% of their time gathering information for and creating first drafts of materials by hand before iterating on and refining their decks, models, and pitches. Farsight not only gives them that time back to focus on what is important, but we also bring new insights and knowledge to their materials that they wouldn’t be able to uncover without the help of our financial-focused AI.
