Built for data-driven teams

Redbird understands Charles River's investment data structures and Looker's semantic modeling requirements, mapping trading schemas to analytics-ready formats automatically.

AI that reads investment management and BI schemas natively

Redbird's AI interprets Charles River's order management tables, portfolio hierarchies, and compliance rule structures alongside Looker's LookML dimensions, measures, and explores. It understands how trade blotters map to time-series analytics, how portfolio positions relate to benchmark views, and how compliance attributes should be exposed as dashboard filters. The platform handles complex investment data types—fixed income cash flows, derivative exposures, multi-currency positions—transforming them into consistent metric definitions without brittle field mapping.
