Financial Analysis SFT (100K)
100,000 ShareGPT conversations demonstrating expert-level financial analysis across DCF modeling, unit economics, LBO analysis, credit analysis, earnings interpretation, comparable company analysis, and financial ratio analysis.
Motivation
Financial AI is a critical enterprise capability — investment analysts, CFOs, startup founders, and finance teams need models that can reason through complex financial questions with the precision of a trained finance professional. Models commonly fail by:
- Explaining concepts without applying them: Describing what a DCF is rather than building one for the specific scenario
- Ignoring model assumptions: Presenting a single valuation without explaining what drives it or how sensitive it is
- Missing business model nuances: Applying the same ratios to SaaS, manufacturing, and retail without acknowledging fundamental differences
- Generic ratio definitions without interpretation: Defining EBITDA margin without explaining what 15% vs. 35% means for a specific type of business
- No cross-validation: Presenting one valuation method without cross-checking against others
- Avoiding honest uncertainty: Not surfacing the key risks and sensitivities that make financial projections ranges, not points
This dataset trains models to do financial analysis like a senior analyst: building models, applying frameworks, surfacing assumptions, and providing actionable recommendations.

Key Properties of Responses
1. Models built, not described: Responses include actual calculations, tables with numbers, and step-by-step model construction — not just explanations of methodology.
2. Assumptions made explicit: Every financial model identifies its key assumptions, the range of reasonable alternatives, and how sensitive the output is to each.
3. Business model awareness: SaaS, manufacturing, retail, financial services — each business type has different relevant metrics, appropriate benchmarks, and analytical frameworks. Responses apply the right framework to the right context.
4. Numerical benchmarks provided: Not just "gross margin should be high" but "SaaS companies should target 65–80% gross margin; below 60% suggests infrastructure or service delivery cost problems."
5. Red flags identified: Earnings analysis, credit analysis, and due diligence responses explicitly identify warning signs — accounting signals, structural risks, deteriorating trends.
6. Investment decision framework: Analysis concludes with a clear framework for decision-making, not just a description of what the numbers show.
