The Challenge

Analysts at Ardmore spent roughly an hour compiling information before each investment call. The process required pulling data from emails, Slack threads, internal reports, and SEC filings — a slow, manual workflow that delayed critical, time-sensitive decisions. Senior analysts often waited on these summaries before analysis could begin, creating bottlenecks that limited the fund’s speed and agility.

The Solution

Casper Studios built a custom AI research agent that automates the entire pre-call workflow. The platform integrates with Slack, email, and Excel, automatically ingesting transcripts, internal messages, and filings. It synthesizes this information into a single dashboard, highlighting key metrics, consensus gaps, and variant views. What once required an hour of manual prep now takes less than a minute.

The Impact

The new workflow shifted the fund’s research approach from slow, manual preparation to fast, data-driven insight.

  • Higher leverage: Senior analysts now focus on strategic thinking instead of data collection.

  • Faster reactions: Investment decisions can be made in real time, with clear, synthesized intelligence.

  • Happier teams: Analysts spend less time on repetitive tasks, improving efficiency and morale.

Other cases

Netflix & Doritos Campaign

Problem

Netflix and Doritos wanted a high-impact campaign that could stand out in a crowded media environment. Traditional advertising formats were losing their ability to capture audience attention. The goal was to create a new kind of fan experience—something immersive, shareable, and distinctly on-brand for Stranger Things.

Solution

Casper Studios designed and deployed an interactive, real-time voice AI experience where fans could call into a 1980s-style “telethon” and talk directly with characters from the show. The system used generative voice AI to power unique, unscripted conversations at scale—combining creative storytelling with advanced technical execution.

PE-Backed IT Services Firm

Problem

Creating a single client proposal took roughly 36 hours of manual work. Sales and operations teams had to gather data from multiple systems, coordinate approvals, and manually format each quote. This slow, fragmented process delayed responses to new opportunities, weakened the firm’s competitive position, and limited its ability to pursue new business efficiently.

Solution

Casper Studios built an automated quoting tool that connects directly to the client’s CRM and pricing databases. The platform automatically fills in customer and pricing details, generates a proposal, and routes it for approval—all within one interface. The process now takes around two hours from start to finish.
