About
I’m Kriti Dutta — a software engineer at BlackRock with 5+ years in production Python and ML systems, specialising in the finance vertical.
I’m spending 2026 building three open-source projects at the intersection of finance and AI, in public:
- sec-cli — a fast CLI for SEC filings, built for LLM workflows. Written in Go with a Python wrapper. Ships Jun 2026.
- FinBench (coming soon) — an open benchmark for how well LLMs do actual financial analysis. 400 hand-crafted examples, adversarial framing, reproducible eval harness. Launches Aug 2026.
- Tearsheet (coming soon) — a local-first agentic analyst with deterministic replay, running on a 5060 Ti. Launches Aug 2026.
I write here every week — deep technical dives and honest building-in-public updates. No generic “Intro to RAG” content.
If you’re working on LLM evaluation, finance AI, or agent infrastructure, I’d like to hear from you.
