Atlas-Finance: Evaluating AI Agents Inside a Bank
TL;DRThe gap: Existing finance benchmarks test agentic financial reasoning, data retrieval, and tool use through static, fully specified tasks. These one-off requests in clean contexts are not reflective of actual deployment. Agent-generated work outputs are graded criterion-by-criterion against expert-authored rubrics with 42-486 binary criteria per task (code; data).Pushing the frontier: We designed ATLAS-Finance to closely reflect realistic working conditions in a financial firm.

TL;DRThe gap: Existing finance benchmarks test agentic financial reasoning, data retrieval, and tool use through static, fully specified tasks. These one-off requests in clean contexts are not reflective of actual deployment. In reality, analysts must operate under ambiguity, gather key context from multiple (and sometimes conflicting) sources, and coordinate with leadership, colleagues across teams, and clients that may send relevant updates mid-task.Our benchmark: Introducing ATLAS-Finance–100 expert-level tasks inside 13 realistic financial firm environments with multi-party working group teams, full inboxes, drives, notebooks, and calendars.
