Fine-Tuned & Time-Boxed LLMs
Generate predictive sentiment factors without look-ahead bias

Reliable and unbiased insights for backtesting tasks and decision-making.
Clients can now access this world-first innovation on the AI Insights Platform or as a downloadable model, seamlessly integrating it into their machine learning workflows. It strengthens investment strategies by addressing look-ahead bias in financial forecasting using time-boxing—a technique ensuring insights are based only on data available at prediction time.
Enhancing return forecasts
aisot’s models are fine-tuned every quarter, in sync with fiscal periods, leveraging an encoder-based transformer specifically optimized for financial tasks such as return predictions. These sentiment factors, derived from LLMs, enrich expected return forecasts in quantitative models, offering a more accurate outlook on future performance.
Mitigating biases

To prevent hallucinations and minimize look-ahead bias, aisot uses time-boxing and integrates LLM outputs with quantitative models under strict portfolio constraints. By combining sentiment data with Bayesian frameworks, aisot ensures reliable, real-time insights that align with client-specific risk models, delivering actionable investment intelligence.
