Finance subsystem — EDGAR, RSS, and Wikipedia, no paid vendor

How vMira surfaces financial information from public sources only — EDGAR filings, RSS news feeds, and Wikipedia — with a no-advice posture on every response.

Quick answer

vMira ships a finance subsystem that pulls from public sources only: SEC EDGAR filings, RSS news feeds, and Wikipedia. Every response carries a no-advice disclaimer. No paid market-data vendor.

vMira now has a built-in finance subsystem. Ask about a ticker, a 10-K, or the latest earnings, and Mira will pull from public sources: SEC EDGAR for filings, RSS news feeds for current events, and Wikipedia for entity context.

No paid market-data vendor is in the loop. The trade-off is that we are not surfacing real-time quotes — those require a licensed vendor, and the cost would land on every user whether they wanted finance features or not.

No-advice posture

Every finance response carries an explicit disclaimer: this is information, not advice. Mira does not recommend buying or selling securities. If you are making investment decisions, talk to a licensed professional.

How it works

The finance subsystem lives in services/finance/ in mira-api. It is composed of three small fetchers:

  • EDGAR — the SEC's filing index. Companies, 10-Ks, 10-Qs, 8-Ks.
  • RSS — major business news outlets, deduplicated and ordered by recency.
  • Wikipedia — short-form entity context (founded, headquartered, sector).

The output is normalized to a small typed structure that the AI proxy injects into the system prompt when the question is plausibly finance-related. Cheap, deterministic, and free of vendor lock-in.
