Arnie Englander – Tokenizing finance
Today, we spotlight Model ML, an AI fintech rewriting the financial analyst job description. Brothers Chaz Englander and Arnie Englander built an AI workflow platform that turns trusted internal data into ready-to-send pitch decks, investment memos, and due diligence reports in minutes instead of weeks.
Investors are paying attention. Financial Technology Partners / FT Partners just led a $75M Series A round, with Y Combinator, QED Investors, 13books Capital, Latitude, and LocalGlobe joining the syndicate. The raise comes only months after a $12M seed round and about a year after launch, which says a lot about demand for this kind of automation in financial services.
Model ML is already used by major global banks, asset managers, and consulting firms, including two of the Big Four. The product sits on top of a firm's existing data stack and generates client-ready Word, PowerPoint, and Excel materials that match house style, powered by AI agents that can pull, clean, and verify the underlying data.
For deal teams facing rising workloads and tighter staffing budgets, this is more than a nice-to-have. It is an operating layer that could redefine how investment banks, private equity firms, and consultancies get work done.
The open question. Can Model ML turn this early momentum into the default operating system for investment banking?
