AiMi Unveils Agentic Workflow to Automate Mandatory Market Changes

Subscribe to our newsletter

AiMi, specialists in AI for trading and market data operations, has launched an end-to-end agentic workflow designed to streamline how firms manage mandatory changes from exchanges and market data vendors. The new capabilities build on AiMi’s existing AI-enabled platform, introducing a dynamic suite of digital agents that automate the tracking, review, and triage of market and data updates.

For capital markets firms, managing the constant stream of notifications from infrastructure partners is a significant operational challenge. These updates, which can run into the hundreds each day, must be manually ingested, interpreted, and assessed for their business and technical impact – a process fraught with complexity and risk.

Ollie Cadman, CEO of AiMi, explains the long-standing problem to TradingTech Insight: “Historically, this process has all been very manual, requiring experienced people – who possess the necessary knowledge, context, and understanding – to monitor inboxes and filter hundreds of daily notifications to identify which ones might impact them. To complicate matters, exchanges and vendors continually issue updates or changes to these notices. These might be helpful reminders, clarifications, or they might reschedule things or change the scope. Consequently, you must constantly maintain those changes. The obvious risk of these manual processes is that things get missed due to the volume of updates and complexity of the notices.”

AiMi’s platform aims to solve this challenge by deploying digital agents that continuously ingest and interpret unstructured notifications, identify impactful changes based on a client’s specific business context and configuration, and assess the impact on affected applications and subscribers. This intelligent orchestration layer ensures that changes are not merely processed, but are prioritised, contextualised, and delivered with precision, turning what was once weeks of manual review into minutes.

The platform is engineered to ensure that business logic and data remain segregated and tailored to clients’ unique operational requirements, explains Cadman. “First and foremost, we’re a technology provider building a customisable platform. Each client has a dedicated environment with no shared infrastructure, which means we are not putting all those notices into a single shared database. Everything gets processed individually for that client, based on what they are interested in. Where available, we can source these notices on behalf of clients, however in some cases firms have built up their distribution lists from exchanges over many years and trust them. They know that they receive everything they care about and just want to plug in a piece of technology that can help them process that information more efficiently.”

A key aspect of the new workflow is its ability to augment, rather than replace, existing institutional processes. By integrating with established third-party platforms like Jira, the system can feed actionable changes directly to internal delivery teams, accelerating manual tasks while preserving oversight.

“It’s critical that we’re not trying to replace or re-engineer our clients’ processes,” Cadman says. “We are trying to accelerate them while ensuring the appropriate human-in-the-loop checkpoints remain at key review points. It was always key for us to be able to integrate into their existing processes. That’s why things like Jira integration are key. We are not asking people to step out of their existing workflow; we are able to feed directly into it.”
