Use Cases

Built for finance workflows

Real examples of how investment banks and asset managers put Shoal to work on document-heavy, compliance-critical tasks.

Regulatory Compliance Q&A

Query your internal compliance policies, Basel III frameworks, MiFID II documentation, and AML procedures in natural language. Every answer is traced to the specific policy clause.

  • Basel III / IV capital requirement lookups
  • MiFID II and EMIR compliance queries
  • Internal AML and KYC policy Q&A
  • Regulatory change impact analysis across document sets

Contract Review & Clause Extraction

Upload ISDA master agreements, loan documentation, or transaction contracts. Ask Shoal to identify specific clauses, compare terms across counterparties, or flag non-standard provisions.

  • ISDA and GMRA master agreement analysis
  • Loan covenant identification and comparison
  • Non-standard clause detection across counterparties
  • Term sheet vs. executed agreement gap analysis

Earnings & Research Synthesis

Ingest earnings transcripts, sell-side research, and analyst reports. Ask cross-document questions to surface trends, risk themes, and management commentary across a portfolio of companies.

  • Management commentary trend extraction
  • Cross-company risk factor comparison
  • Guidance vs. actuals delta analysis
  • Sector-wide earnings theme identification

Due Diligence Acceleration

Load data room documents — CIMs, audited financials, legal reviews — into a project-scoped knowledge base. Run structured Q&A without forwarding sensitive materials.

  • CIM and IM document Q&A with citations
  • Financial statement cross-referencing
  • Legal review summary extraction
  • Deal-specific document isolation per workspace
All document data stays within your workspace — never used to train models
