LONDON and NEW YORK — Sept. 24, 2025 — Auquan, the leader in automating complex financial workflows with autonomous AI agents, today announced it has been named a Cool Vendor in the Gartner® report Cool Vendors™ for Agentic AI in Banking and Investment Services (05 Sept 2025, Jasleen Kaur Sindhu, Sudarshana Bhattacharya, Jeff Casey). The report, “helps CIOs identify innovative vendors and solutions to drive efficiency, compliance, and business impact.” It also notes that, “by 2027, 40% of organizations are expected to use AI agents to automate workflows and enhance decision making.”

“We believe this recognition underscores what our customers already know: finance doesn’t run on prompts. It runs on finished work,” said Chandini Jain, CEO and co-founder of Auquan. Copilots can answer questions, but only Auquan’s agents deliver the finished, auditable deliverables that investment committees and LPs expect.

What Auquan Delivers

Auquan’s agents turn disorganized, multi-source inputs such as data rooms, vendor feeds, and internal systems into enterprise-grade outputs for investment, credit, risk, and compliance teams. Financial workflows have zero tolerance for error, and Auquan’s agentic architecture delivers exactly that to its clients: the AI agents handle all the messy work, but each calculation is deterministic, all facts are verified and cited, and every output is audit-trailed.

From pre-close deal screening and investment memos to post-close covenant monitoring and compliance reviews, Auquan lets teams move faster without sacrificing rigor.

This recognition caps a year of strong momentum:

  • Adoption by tier-1 institutions including MetLife, T. Rowe Price, and BC Partners
  • Up to 75% time savings on core workflows such as briefing memos, credit papers, side-letter compliance checks and portfolio reviews
  • New agents launched in 2025 for credit, risk & ESG, and reconciliation, now live in production
  • Recognition with more than 15 industry awards in 2025, including Technology Partner of the Year at the Fund Manager Awards and inclusion in the global AIFintech100.
