Harkster Limited
An institutional research company building AI-assisted products for market intelligence, research discovery and narrative tracking.
Why it existed
It addressed the problem of high-value research being scattered across publications, feeds, podcasts, news and internal systems, making consensus, hidden trade ideas and market-moving events harder to see in time.
My role
Co-founded the company and helped shape the product strategy, technical platform and client workflow model from London.
What we built
Harkster and a “TweetDeck for macro research” workspace: AI-assisted research feeds, curated channels, reading lists, keyword monitoring, proprietary assistants, integrations and visibility into research usage and subscription value.
How it was delivered
The products were delivered as Azure-hosted web platforms using Clean Architecture, RESTful APIs, real-time research feeds, .NET Orleans, SignalR, Vue, ASP.NET Core, SQL and storage services, with native iOS capability for the macro research product.
Outcome
Active company building institutional research technology and market-intelligence products from London.
