About Farsight

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. We not only give 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.

We work with an immense amount of both public and private data, delivering highly accurate and auditable materials in an arena far too nuanced for large-scale AI out of the box. Oftentimes, our product generates outputs that outperform the work of existing employees, with customers boasting:

• “I’m more than willing to let my analysts never use Powerpoint again.”

• "We pay consultants millions per year to advise us on our AI strategies. They have zero idea what Farsight is capable of."

Our mission is to upend the way financial services work in corporations gets done, effectively integrating AI into the financial needlework of every company on Earth.

Team

We are a highly motivated team that is driven by creating technology that amazes. Each one of us wears many different hats, whether that be development, sales, infrastructure, design, product innovation, AI research, and more - and we expect those coming in to have the experience or the motivation to wear just as many.

Our team has had a wide range of experience that uniquely equips us to capture this massive opportunity. Our team comes from leading financial institutions like Evercore, General Atlantic and Menlo Ventures, supercharged by scalable engineering and AI skills from companies including Amazon, Hugging Face and the MIT Media Lab. We've learned the ins and outs of building successful startups from previous work as founders and founding engineers. We focus on hiring the best so that we can become the best, so we hope you apply!

We are entirely based in Manhattan, New York City, and are in-person 4 days a week (except Fridays, which are remote).
