How Benefit Street Partners is building financial analysis tools with Codex

From the creator

“I’ve gone from being just an analyst and a portfolio manager to being a developer as well now. I can build things.” Benefit Street Partners’ Anant Kumar wanted to compare how firms valued the same loans. The information was spread across SEC filings. He built a tool to collect it automatically and turn it into a website with visualizations. The first version took about a day. He calls Codex the big unlock. Watch how building his own tools changed the speed and depth of his analysis.

Makers residency 4th edition

Your idea can be anything. At our last workshops, people built plant-based nutrition businesses, a way to measure planetary resilience, crochet headwear and a way to connect lonely people living in the same building. An asset manager went on to raise an additional £25M on their fund within nine months. The fourth workshop is a full day at KOKO with Nick Sarafa, learning to build with Claude Code. Bring the thing you keep meaning to start. We’ll bring the pizza.
