AI Modules by Model ML
The average junior banker spends 50% of their day building PowerPoint decks and another 30% on process or data tasks – leaving as little as 20% for true financial analysis. The 100-hour weeks on Wall Street are very real, but let’s be honest: much of that toil is spent wrangling data and polishing slides, not generating insight.
"Most firms pride themselves on hiring the best and brightest. Yet a huge portion of those talented teams’ time is spent not on strategy or analysis, but on grunt work. Model ML is changing this." - Jeff McDermott, Former Global Head of Investment Banking, Nomura, UBS
In today’s AI-powered world, does it really need to be this way?
Model ML is officially launching AI Modules—purpose-built digital team members that autonomously execute the most complex, multi-step workflows in finance. Today marks a major leap forward for financial institutions and investors seeking real productivity gains from artificial intelligence—not just incremental tools, but true automation at enterprise scale.
Arnie and Chaz Englander—two veteran technology founders who previously sold their last two businesses, Fat Llama to Hygglo and Fancy to GoPuff—they have been quietly building what is rapidly becoming the most advanced AI application in finance.
“AI Modules are what we believe to be the first step towards fully autonomous, AI-based digital employees,” say the Englanders. “This is about going beyond copilots and chatbots—delivering real, accountable automation that changes how financial work gets done.”
Meet AI Modules
AI Modules are the first step towards fully autonomous, AI based, digital employees and our answer to inefficiency—Model ML’s Module builder lets you build and deploy autonomous AI Modules who work 24/7. These AI Modules execute complex, multi-step tasks from start to finish, just like a skilled team member—but at machine speed, and without ever needing a break. What once took a team of analysts days now takes hours or even minutes, with no compromise on accuracy or quality.
Imagine this: you finish a client meeting where a new deal idea is discussed, and a Module springs into action the moment your meeting ends. It pulls data from all the same places your analysts would – internal notes, company filings, data rooms, past materials, equity research, FactSet, Capital IQ, news sources, even the target company’s website – collating and analyzing everything. It then compiles that analysis into a polished, fully formatted PowerPoint deck (or Word or Excel output), complete with your firm’s branding, exactly as a human would. By the time you’ve grabbed a coffee, a first draft of the client deliverable is sitting in your inbox. No more all-nighters. No more waiting a week to review the first draft.
How AI Modules Work
Build AI Modules as Your Virtual Team:
The AI Module builder lets you create custom AI Modules for the exact tasks your team handles regularly – whether it’s preparing company profiles, drafting sell-side pitch books, compiling quarterly earnings summaries, or scouring data rooms during a due diligence process. You teach the modules your workflow by specifying the sources it should use for that particular task (e.g. “we always pull the revenue directly from the 8k itself, use CRM data for recent client interactions, fetch the consensus estimates from CapIQ”) and by providing examples of the output format you want. Upload a previous deliverable or template, and the module learns exactly how your firm likes its charts, tables, logos and the overall slides to look. There’s no limit to output size or complexity – whether it’s a concise 5-page brief or a 100+ slide investment committee memo, the AI Module handles it. Every slide, every chart, every bullet point comes out consistently polished and ready to share. In essence, you’re onboarding a new “digital team member” – one that comes pre-trained on your institutional knowledge and doesn’t complain about all nighters.
Autonomous Execution – On Your Schedule:
Once a module is set up, you can run it on-demand, schedule it to execute at regular intervals (like a weekly market update every Monday at 7am), or have it triggered automatically by real-world events—such as “When Company X releases earnings, do X, Y, Z,” or “After I log a client pitch call in CRM, draft a proposal deck.” AI Modules continuously monitor for these triggers and launch complex orchestrations automatically, ensuring the right work happens exactly when you need it. No more manual grunt work, no copy-paste drudgery, and no risk of missing a key detail. Everything is completed in seconds by AI—just as if your best analyst had meticulously prepared it.
Transparent Oversight & Continuous Improvement:
You might ask, “Do I lose control?” Not at all. AI Modules include a dashboard that lets you watch your Modules work in real-time. You can see what data sources they’re accessing, the steps they’re taking, and even the intermediate reasoning or calculations along the way. It’s like managing a team – you have full visibility. Each Module also provides full traceability for its output: every figure or fact it includes can be tied back to a source or reference, so you can double-check critical numbers (the Module even cites its sources for you, acting as a true extension of your team). And because you centrally define how the work should be done, your standards are always upheld. If your branding or formatting guidelines change, or you want to capture a new best practice, you update the module’s instructions once. Instantly, all future outputs follow the new rule. Contrast that with the old way: chasing hundreds of analysts to adopt a small change (and hoping none of them slip up). With AI Modules, consistency is a given – your AI team members all operate from the same playbook, literally.
Human in the Loop:
AI Modules are built to operate just like another member of your team. You interact with them the same way you would with a junior colleague: assigning tasks, providing feedback, and asking for revisions. Senior team members review the Module’s work, steer its direction, and validate key decisions—just as they would with any team member. When you make corrections or share preferences, the Module learns and adapts for next time. This approach keeps humans at the centre, ensuring your AI team members work seamlessly alongside you, always guided by your expertise.
From Weeks to Seconds – A Generational Leap but what does the future look like?
Teams using AI Modules are finding that what once took days or weeks of human effort now takes a fraction of the time. Tedious work that consumed nights is now handled in the background while your team focuses elsewhere. One person empowered by an AI Module can accomplish the productivity of an entire analyst bullpen. For example, AI-driven slide generation has already proven its speed….
"Imagine this: Upload a single historical deck, point Model ML's Grid at your new data—company filings, data rooms, confidential docs, FactSet, S&P Global Capital IQ, news, CRMs, websites—and watch as it generates fully structured, branded, multi-slide presentations, exactly as your team would." - Chaz Englander, CEO and Co-Founder, Model ML

AI Modules bring that same speed and consistency to the entire workflow, from data gathering to final deliverable. The output isn’t just faster; it’s better. Machines don’t get tired or make accidental typos at 2 AM. They don’t forget to update a chart or misalign the logos.
"By automating the manual work traditionally required for analysis, Model ML’s modules allow your professionals to focus on high-value strategy, rather than data formatting and checking. Put simply, your team spends time thinking about your clients’ needs and providing market leading AI solutions to meet those needs in the complex activities of investment banking and investment management." - Sir Noel Quinn, Former Group CEO, HSBC
Crucially, AI Modules aren’t about replacing human insight—it’s about amplifying it. By taking care of the gruntwork, AI Modules allows your team to focus on what truly matters: the content, the strategy, and the client or target relationship. Senior talent can spend their time refining the narrative of a deal or deepening trust with the relevant stakeholders, instead of reviewing endless iterations of a deck. Junior team members, freed from copy-paste drudgery, can engage in real analysis and learn the business—rather than acting as glorified Excel and Powerpoint operators.
The role of the analyst or associate isn’t going away, but the way they work is about to change forever. PowerPoint decks, financial models, and due diligence reports will still get done—at greater volume and detail than ever before—but the heavy lifting will be handled by AI Modules operating at machine speed and precision.
"With Model ML, analysts will shift from manual execution to orchestrating and supervising their digital counterparts. They will have genuine leverage for their creativity, judgment, and relationship development skills—attributes at which humans excel." - Saul Nathan, Former Chairman, Capital Markets and Financial Sponsors Group, Morgan Stanley
The new generation of junior bankers will become experts at building, customizing, and improving their AI teammates—designing workflows, setting standards, and elevating output quality. In this future, technical, analytical, and process expertise will be valued over rote execution, with analysts acting as architects and supervisors of AI-driven processes, much like today’s VPs shape the work of their teams.
