Build AI Agents That Automate Business & Finance Workflows & Get Certified

AI Agents are rapidly transforming how business and finance teams operate. 6 months ago, building a DCF financial model took a junior analyst ~1 day. Today, a team of autonomous AI agents builds, audits, reports, and presents it in 10 minutes.

Organizations are moving beyond spreadsheets and manual workflows toward AI-native systems, where intelligent agents analyze data, generate reports, and automate complex tasks.

The problem: Most professionals still use AI for basic Q&A and drafting emails; they lack the skills to build AI agents that execute real business and finance tasks autonomously.

The solution: This bootcamp teaches you to build intelligent agents that reason, use tools, access data, and complete multi-step workflows automatically using Claude Code, Claude Cowork, and Copilot agents.

What makes this bootcamp unique?

  • AI Agent Workflows: Automate research, reporting, and operational tasks

  • Build AI Agents: Connect agents to financial data and generate insights, no coding required to start

  • Predictive Analytics: Use ML agents for forecasting, classification, and risk scoring

  • Autonomous Agent Teams: Deploy teams of agents that collaborate and improve continuously

What you’ll learn

Future-proof your finance career by mastering AI tools, predictive modeling, and autonomous agents that handle real finance workflows.

  • Use Claude Cowork and Microsoft Copilot Agent Mode to automate research, data extraction, reconciliation, and document processing.

  • Build and configure skills and plugins to create reusable, repeatable agent workflows tailored for finance tasks.

  • Automate end-to-end reporting workflows that generate KPI summaries, financial narratives, and executive-ready deliverables.

  • Build regression agents for revenue forecasting, cash flow projections, and cost modeling; powered by AI, not manual scripting.

  • Apply classification agents to automate credit risk scoring, fraud detection, and transaction categorization at scale.

  • Evaluate and validate AI models using LLM-as-judge grading, accuracy metrics, and regression testing across model versions.

  • Use Model Context Protocol (MCP) to give agents secure, real-time access to financial databases, market data, and accounting platforms.

  • Build MCP servers and clients from scratch to create custom data connections for any business or finance use case.

  • Build a Bloomberg-level predictive analytics terminal with no code; combining agents, data tools, and live financial feeds.

  • Use Claude Code to build agentic coding workflows with subagents, swarms, and handoff protocols for complex finance operations.

  • Orchestrate autonomous agent teams with coordination, delegation, conflict resolution, and observability built in.

  • Schedule agents for recurring runs using Claude Scheduling, Remote Control, and Cowork Dispatch Mode.

  • Design multi-agent systems using ReAct, Plan-and-Execute, and routing patterns; choosing the right architecture for each workflow.

  • Implement guardrails including prompt injection defense, PII redaction, regulatory compliance, and ethics governance.

  • Use the Problem First Framework to identify high-ROI automation opportunities and decompose business processes for agents.

  • Build and deploy a full autonomous agent team that handles real business and finance workflows from data ingestion to deliverables.

  • Present a live demo to your cohort with peer review and expert feedback.

  • Earn your certification in AI Agents for Business & Finance.
