How ZenCheck Catches Errors in Mission Critical Documents
Who is ZenCheck?
Hundreds of billions of dollars are traded every day on public markets on the basis of paper documents, compiled by humans, with typical human errors. Where a single typo can cost billions, companies employ veritable armies of analysts to study these documents and spot mistakes wherever they arise. Every new document released means late nights for countless workers as they race to spot and act on mistakes before anyone else notices them.
ZenCheck automates this process, using context from documents to spot inconsistencies in seconds, and suggesting corrections where appropriate, winning the race at the lowest cost, and enabling the data analysts to spend less of their time playing spell check.
What problem did they have?
Validating the correctness of financial documents is simultaneously critical and technical, requiring knowledge of the underlying structure of the documents and the nature of the facts and figures therein to recognize errors. ZenCheck’s founder, Andrey Lebedev, a Wall Street veteran with years spent on this exact type of analysis, needed a way to translate his expertise in analyzing these documents into an automated process without the steep learning curve of traditional AI tools. Instead of needing to learn complex machine learning frameworks or hiring specialized engineers, Andrey could focus on what he knew best — industry-leading financial analysis.
Working with Wordware
ZenCheck wrote their document analysis and correction tooling in Wordware, extracting data from charts and tables, using agentic flows to iteratively analyze and compare the data from across different parts of documents, and teaching the LLM tricks to spot formatting changes often used to obscure data only experienced analysts would know.
With Wordware’s intuitive platform, Andrey was able to translate his manual processes into automated workflows that replicated his meticulous approach to document validation. Today, ZenCheck uses dozens of individual prompts to power what is likely the world’s most advanced document analysis engine, entirely within the Wordware platform, most of them written by financial experts, rather than engineers.
ZenCheck
ZenCheck is revolutionizing the way financial documents are validated, setting a new standard for accuracy and efficiency in an industry where mistakes can have massive financial repercussions. By automating the process of spotting inconsistencies in documents, ZenCheck not only reduces the risk of costly errors but also frees up analysts to focus on higher-level strategic work. This shift allows companies to operate with greater confidence, knowing that their document validation processes are as reliable as they are swift.
ZenCheck isn’t just about catching mistakes; it’s about transforming the way financial analysis is done. Their platform serves as a force multiplier for analysts, amplifying their ability to handle large volumes of documents with the precision and speed that modern markets demand. This makes ZenCheck an indispensable tool for any firm that values accuracy and efficiency in their financial operations.
