Use Cases | Kamba AI Data Analyst

1. Strategy Generation

A portfolio manager or analyst prompts Kamba’s AI Data Analyst to help build a custom trading strategy. The user provides high-level input such as:

  • Risk Tolerance (e.g., conservative, balanced, aggressive)
  • Asset Classes or Products (equities, ETFs, options, etc.)
  • Technical Preferences (momentum, volatility filters, trend indicators)

The Analyst works interactively to:

  • Select relevant datasets
  • Interpret the inputs
  • Assemble strategy logic with constraints
  • Recommend strategy components (entry/exit signals, sizing rules, etc.)

Why This Is Revolutionary

Traditional strategy development can take weeks, involving data scientists, quant developers, and back-and-forth validation. Kamba’s AI Analyst compresses this into a few minutes and unlocks continuous experimentation.

Design and Refine Trading Strategies: Generate strategy prototypes from prompt inputs, then iterate in real time with human feedback.

Suggest Enhancements Based on Context: Analyze connected historical and real-time data to suggest improvements or complementary logic.

Incorporate Learnings From Previous Trades: Understand past performance, recommend course corrections, and evolve strategies.

Set Alerts for Strategy Performance and Signal Deviations: Track live execution and notify users of risks, alpha decay, or new signal opportunities.

Additional Usage: Beyond Strategy Generation

  • Run Instant Backtests: Validate strategy performance across historical data without writing a single line of code.
  • Evaluate New Datasets: Test the value of third-party data sources before purchasing or integrating.
  • Generate Audit-Ready DQRs: Run automated Data Quality Reports to assess vendor reliability and coverage.
  • Produce Real-Time Executive Reports: Create NAV summaries, compliance snapshots, and performance reports on demand.
  • Enable Team Collaboration: Share strategies, test results, and reports securely with colleagues across functions—all inside Symphony.

2. Instant Backtesting & Dataset Validation

Problem: Backtesting signals or datasets requires coding, slows adoption, and blocks experimentation.

Solution: Analysts prompt the system to run backtests in seconds, validating value across portfolios or market conditions.

  • Backtests with a Single Prompt
  • Compare Datasets, Periods, or Signal Strength
  • Visualize Results in Real-Time

Impact: Streamlines validation, boosts data ROI, and supports fast decision-making.

3. Data Quality Audits & Vendor Due Diligence

Problem: Evaluating data vendors is manual, inconsistent, and burdens procurement and legal teams.

Solution: The AI Analyst generates Data Quality Reports, compares vendors, and automates evaluation workflows.

  • On-Demand Data Quality Reports (DQRs)
  • Vendor Comparison and Documentation
  • Audit-Ready Reports for Legal & Compliance

Impact: Faster onboarding, standardized evaluation, and reduced compliance risk.

4. Executive & Regulatory Reporting

Problem: NAV reports, compliance summaries, and performance views are slow and error-prone when done manually.

Solution: Generate real-time reports using AI and schedule delivery via Symphony messaging or dashboards.

  • Smart Report Templates for Executives
  • Dynamic Alerts on Risk or Compliance Shifts
  • Secure Distribution to Stakeholders

Impact: Accurate, timely reports with no manual assembly or risk of error.

5. Cross-Team Collaboration & Workflow Automation

Problem: Analysts, data teams, and compliance operate in silos—wasting time and increasing risks.

Solution: Kamba enables shared access to data, reports, and workflows inside Symphony with compliant, traceable communication.

  • Integrated AI + Collaboration in Symphony
  • Unified Workflows Across Teams
  • Custom Prompts, Reports & Alerts per Role

Impact: Aligned workflows, real-time collaboration, and accelerated decision-making across departments.
