## ChatGPT goes to Wall Street
OpenAI launched ChatGPT for Financial Services on Sept. 10, a version of ChatGPT Work designed with Morgan Stanley and Evercore and running on GPT-6 Astra.
## Built to think like an analyst
It aims at LBO modeling, buyer screening, earnings analysis and pitchbooks, with citations tracing every figure back to the source filing.

> We're effectively teaching ChatGPT to research like an analyst and back up its conclusions like an analyst as well.
## Anthropic shipped this first
Claude for Financial Services arrived May 5 with connectors to FactSet, S&P Capital IQ, Moody's and more, plus 10 agent templates for pitchbooks, KYC and month-end close.
## Two bets on the data
Anthropic connects out to each provider's own system through MCP. OpenAI licenses and hosts Daloopa, PitchBook and LSEG News itself, keeping tighter control over retrieval and citations.
## A tiered integration model
Bundled datasets need no separate contract or connector. Others, including MSCI, Dow Jones Factiva and Moody's, get a lighter sign-in that just recognizes a bank's existing entitlements.
## Startups feel the squeeze
Rogo and Hebbia sell the same thing and run on these very models. Rogo passed $50 million in ARR, up from $15 million at the end of 2025, and is tracking toward $100 million.
## Banks are the bigger threat
Rogo and Hebbia argue their agents behave like your firm, not a generic chatbot. But their own customers are building in-house agents, even if most still lack scoped use cases.

> increasingly like your firm rather than like a generic Claude
## Key takeaway

Both labs are now selling the junior banker workflow itself, and the real fight is over who owns the data pipe behind it: OpenAI hosts it, Anthropic connects to it.
