Kimpton AI
YC Sp26AI for portfolio managers
About
Kimpton is the AI research platform for the buy side, built by ex-Goldman engineers who left to start a hedge fund with $10M and ran it for four years before productizing the stack. Portfolio managers spend most of their day on work that isn't investing: filings, earnings prep, 13Fs, peer benchmarking, thesis validation, trade writeups. Kimpton runs all of it autonomously and delivers structured Trade Proposals with full rationale, fitted to a portfolio manager's mandate and strategy. Risk profile, style, and constraints live in plain-text mandate.md and strategy.md files that drive every analysis the system performs. The rest of the desk sits alongside: Deep Research cited to source, natural-language Dashboards, Agentic Charting & Backtests, scheduled Skills for recurring workflows, and auto-generated Reports. Coverage includes FactSet pricing, fundamentals, estimates, transcripts, ownership, and M&A data, plus live prediction markets from Polymarket. Humans make the decisions. AI does everything else.
