Most AI “equity research” demos stop at generating text. In practice, real workflows require pulling structured XBRL financials from SEC filings, extracting labeled sections like MD&A and Risk Factors, merging macro and market data, building actual Excel models with formulas, and generating investment memos in Word or PDF.
Hermes is designed to handle that full pipeline end to end.
It includes 35 financial data tools covering SEC EDGAR (via edgartools), FRED, Yahoo Finance market data, and RSS-based financial news. It also provides composable specialist agents for filings, macro data, market data, modeling, report generation, and multi-agent orchestration. On the output side, it can generate Excel workbooks using openpyxl, create Word documents, export PDFs, and index filings with ChromaDB for semantic search. It includes async rate limiting, file-based caching (filings cached permanently, quotes never cached), and streaming progress events.
Hermes is MIT licensed and designed to be extended. You can register custom tools and agents and plug in your own data sources or models.
I’d love feedback from both AI engineers and finance professionals, especially around validation, reliability, and real-world research workflows.
