An investment firm faced challenges quickly gathering and analyzing data on potential investment targets. The manual process of sourcing information from multiple platforms was time-consuming, delaying decision-making. They needed a more efficient and automated solution to enhance their investment decision process.
The Problem
The firm encountered several challenges with its existing manual research process:
Time-Consuming: Gathering data from various sources like company websites, Google, LinkedIn, and Crunchbase took significant time and effort.
Inefficiency: Manual data entry into Airtable slowed operations and delayed investment decisions.
Limited Scalability: As the firm grew, the process struggled to keep up with increasing data and companies.
They needed a solution to:
Automate data collection and enrichment from various platforms.
Reduce manual data entry into their Airtable database.
Speed up decision-making with accurate, up-to-date information.
The Solution
To address these challenges, we created an AI-powered research and investment agent that automated the data-gathering process and integrated seamlessly with their workflow.
Key features of the solution:
AI Agents for Data Enrichment: Integrated AI agents with access to multiple data sources (Website, Google, LinkedIn, Crunchbase) to automatically enrich company profiles with critical insights such as financial metrics and competitor analysis.
Real-Time Airtable Integration: The system was designed to trigger automatic data sourcing and enrichment whenever a company name and website were added to Airtable.
Scalable Deployment: The solution was deployed on the Amazon Web Services(AWS) Platform, ensuring scalability and reliability as the firm expanded its data needs.
The Outcome
The AI-powered solution brought significant improvements to the firm’s research and decision-making process:
Time Savings: The automation reduced research and data entry time by over 75%, significantly boosting productivity.
Enhanced Decision-Making: Faster access to enriched data enabled the firm to make quicker and more informed investment decisions.
Scalability: The solution scaled effortlessly with the firm’s growing data needs, handling more companies and data fields without performance degradation.
Improved Collaboration: Real-time updates and shared access to enriched data in Airtable improved cross-functional teamwork and collaboration.
Technology Stack
(For the tech-savvy reader, here’s what we used to build this solution.)
Frameworks: FastAPI for API development
AI Models: GPT-4o and GPT 4o mini
AI Integration: LangChain for building AI-driven workflows and automation, LangSmith for observability and debugging AI agents, PyTorch for custom machine learning model
Infrastructure & Deployment: AWS Services (S3, ECS, EC2, Amazon SQS, Amazon EventBridge, CloudWatch, ECR, etc.)
Docker for containerization
Experimentation & Observability: Weights & Biases for tracking machine learning experiments and performance metrics
Database Integration: PostgreSQL for structured company data storage, Pinecone for vector-based search and retrieval
CI/CD: Github Actions
Key Takeaway
AI agents are revolutionizing workflows by automating tasks across various platforms, streamlining operations, and enhancing efficiency. Their integration can be applied to nearly any system, and in this case, leveraging AI agents with Airtable empowers businesses to automate data gathering, enrichment, and analysis, leading to faster and more accurate decision-making
