Model building is time consuming with new analysts taking 6-12 months to fully ramp in their new jobs. When expanding coverage, it can take up to two weeks to build a fully useful model.
The legacy process of getting financial data for new companies into analysts’ financial models is highly manual. Even with resources like SEC EDGAR or company investor relation sites aggregating relevant documents, it takes time to manually download needed files, convert them into usable formats, copy-and-paste from discrete source documents into time-series models, and finally validate the data.
