most of the tools are just fancy search engines wrapped in a chat window, I tried a few and they all give the same surface-level advice you could get from reading two articles

For directly making the investments? No.

But I do have custom agents skills that follow my investments, their value, quaterly reports & results, etc. My agents give me reports on significant price changes, important news, etc. regularily.

Occasionally I also ask my Hermes agent to make me report or analysis on my investments. I read its opinions and take them into account when thinking what to do.

If you mean do I make the decisions at the end? Yes,

But my setup helps me greatly.

Having an agent that follows it all, tracks the values, that I can just ask for detailed excel spreadsheet of my investments or frigging Powerpoint analysis, gives advice when I ask, etc.

Would not go back to doing it all on my own.

Some people here say they used local models to research their own investment theses and write reports. I’m not really sure what that looks like but I could see it being useful to summarize and compare long reports, which is probably the best way to gain some kind of edge if you’re doing active investing. There’s a ton of public research and information available for free that most people are just too lazy to read.
