AnalystBook vs Fiscal.ai
Financial data terminal.
Or grounded AI you can verify.
Fiscal.ai (formerly Finchat) is a financial-data terminal with AI — statements, estimates, KPIs, charts. AnalystBook is a research workspace built on official filings: a grounded Intelligence Brief, sector-calibrated forensic scores, filing-extracted numbers, and Ana. Here's an honest look at where each one wins.

The difference
AI Intelligence you can verify.
AnalystBook's Intelligence Brief reads the official filing and writes the analysis in plain language, grounded in the source. The numbers are computed, not generated, so the same filing always returns the same answer. And you can ask Ana, our in-app AI research analyst, anything about a company: she answers from AnalystBook's own structured, industry-aware data — the filings we organize for every U.S. public company — citing her sources and declining whatever she can't ground. Because we structure and own that data, she reasons over clean, comparable facts, not loose document text. Like any AI it can still make mistakes — which is exactly why her answers cite their sources for you to verify. Intelligence you can verify, not a chatbot you second-guess.

FAQ
Common questions.
Is AnalystBook a Fiscal.ai (Finchat) alternative?
For filing-driven research, yes. Fiscal.ai is more of a financial-data terminal — statements, consensus estimates, KPIs, 13F, and charts with an AI assistant. AnalystBook adds a grounded Intelligence Brief, sector-calibrated forensic scores, filing-extracted numbers, and Ana. It doesn't carry consensus estimates, so it's the better fit if you want to read the filing rather than chart the data.
What is Ana, AnalystBook's AI research analyst?
Ana is AnalystBook's in-app AI research analyst. Ask her anything about a company and she answers only from AnalystBook's own structured data — the official filings we organize and index, industry-aware, for every U.S. public company — citing her sources. She doesn't use the open web or outside knowledge and gives no buy, sell, or hold verdicts, and she's designed to decline whatever she can't ground. Because we own and structure that data, Ana reasons over clean, comparable facts, not loose document text. Like any AI she isn't infallible, so her answers cite their sources for you to verify. For research only; not investment advice.
Does AnalystBook have analyst estimates and KPIs like Fiscal.ai?
No. AnalystBook is primary-source only — it works from official filings, so it doesn't carry consensus estimates or third-party KPI sets. It focuses on what's actually in the filing: financials, forensic signals, governance, and ownership, each extracted from the filings by fixed rules.
Is AnalystBook just for reading filings, or does it organize my research too?
Both. Beyond the dossier and the Intelligence Brief, AnalystBook is a research workspace: follow the companies you cover, keep notes pinned to the filing, track open theses and to-dos, and get quarterly review reminders. Your work persists per company, so you pick up where you left off months later.
