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"])

  • Valuation Models: "Build a DCF model for Microsoft with bear, base, and bull scenarios"
  • Peer Comparisons: "Compare semiconductor stocks — NVDA, AMD, INTC, TSM — on valuation, growth, and profitability metrics"

Manage and optimize investments:

  • Portfolio Review: "Analyze my portfolio: 40% AAPL, 20% MSFT, 15% GOOGL, 15% AMZN, 10% TSLA — diversification, risk, and recommendations"
  • Asset Allocation: "Design an optimal portfolio for a 35-year-old with $200K, moderate risk tolerance"
  • Risk Assessment: "Calculate the Sharpe ratio, beta, and maximum drawdown for this portfolio over the last 3 years"
  • Rebalancing: "My portfolio drifted from target — recommend rebalancing trades to minimize tax impact"

  • Budget Optimization: "Analyze my spending breakdown and recommend where to cut to save $1,000/month more"

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.


Example Prompts

Comprehensive stock analysis:

"Create a full investment analysis for AMD:

  1. Business Overview — segments, revenue mix, competitive positioning
  2. Financial Performance — last 8 quarters revenue, margins, EPS trends
  3. Valuation — P/E, P/S, PEG vs peers (NVDA, INTC, QCOM)
  4. Growth Catalysts — AI/datacenter, gaming, embedded
  5. Risk Factors — competition, cyclicality, customer concentration
  6. Bull/Bear/Base price targets

Interactive HTML report with comparison charts."

Financial model:

"Build a startup financial model:

Business: B2B SaaS, project management tool Current: $30K MRR, 200 customers, $150 ARPU Growth: 12% MoM for 12 months, then 8% for next 12 Team: 8 people now, hiring 4 in next year Expenses: $180K/month burn rate

Create a 24-month projection showing:

  • Revenue forecast with cohort analysis
  • Expense breakdown and hiring plan
  • Cash flow and runway
  • Unit economics (CAC, LTV, payback period)
  • Break-even analysis

Deliver as Excel spreadsheet with charts."

Personal finance:

"I'm 28, earning $120K/year in San Francisco. I want to:

  1. Max out 401K contributions
  2. Build a 6-month emergency fund ($30K)
  3. Save for a house down payment ($100K in 5 years)
  4. Start investing in index funds

Create a detailed monthly financial plan that shows how to prioritize these goals with my take-home pay after taxes. Include a timeline and visual roadmap."

Earnings analysis:

"Break down Tesla's most recent quarterly earnings:

  • Revenue vs estimates (beat/miss by how much?)
  • Automotive margins — trend over last 4 quarters
  • Energy and services segment performance
  • Key quotes from management on guidance
  • What analysts are saying post-earnings
  • Bull and bear reactions

Deliver as a concise PDF report with charts."


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.


If CellCog is not installed

Run /cellcog-setup (or /cellcog:cellcog-setup depending on your tool) to install and authenticate. OpenClaw users: Run clawhub install cellcog instead. Manual setup: pip install -U cellcog and set CELLCOG_API_KEY. See the cellcog skill for SDK reference.

Usage Guidance
This skill will send prompts and any data you include to CellCog's API using the provided CELLCOG_API_KEY. Only install if you trust cellcog.ai and are comfortable with that data flow. Limit the API key's permissions if possible, avoid sending sensitive PII or private keys in prompts, and monitor usage (rate limits, billing). If you want tighter control, consider running analyses on locally installed tools or reviewing the separate 'cellcog' SDK code (if available) before providing the API key.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: fin-cog Version: 1.0.12 The fin-cog skill bundle is a documentation-heavy package designed for financial analysis and stock research using the 'cellcog' Python dependency. The SKILL.md file provides legitimate usage examples, prompt templates, and installation instructions for financial modeling and portfolio optimization, with no evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or harmful prompt injection.
Capability Tags
cryptocan-make-purchasesrequires-sensitive-credentials
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (financial analysis) aligns with what the SKILL.md instructs (using the CellCog SDK to create chats/tasks). Required bits — python3 and CELLCOG_API_KEY — are what you'd expect for a Python SDK that calls an external API.
Instruction Scope
Instructions show example code calling CellCog (client.create_chat) and reference file handling and chat modes in the separate 'cellcog' SDK. The SKILL.md does not request unrelated local files or system credentials, but it does send user prompts/data to an external service (CellCog). Be aware any prompt content or uploaded data may be transmitted to CellCog's servers.
Install Mechanism
No install spec or external downloads are present (instruction-only). This minimizes on-disk install risk; the skill expects the environment to already have python3 and the 'cellcog' dependency available.
Credentials
Only CELLCOG_API_KEY is required and is proportional to the described functionality. No unrelated secrets, system paths, or multiple credentials are requested.
Persistence & Privilege
always:false and no install-time persistence or modification of other agent configs are present. The skill can be invoked autonomously by the agent (platform default), which is expected for an API-backed capability.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install fin-cog
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /fin-cog
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
