Origin Story
Honestly, it started with a rejection.
Earlier this year I interviewed at Third Bridge — a financial research firm. Didn't get the job. But going through the process made me look closely at what they actually do: structured, institutional-grade financial intelligence, built for professionals who know exactly where to look and what to ask. Students don't have that. I didn't have that.
When I tried writing my own equity research report I had no idea where to start. The data was everywhere but unusable — scattered across PDFs, locked behind paywalls, inconsistent formats, no framework. I could've buried myself in tutorials for weeks. Or I could've just asked an AI to write it for me. I didn't want either of those things. An AI-generated report I don't understand is worthless. And I shouldn't need a Bloomberg terminal subscription to learn how to read a balance sheet.
So I built Trikosh.
Not to replace thinking — to make thinking possible. A free, open-source library of standardised financial data across 100+ companies spanning different sectors, with a published methodology so you know exactly how every number was calculated. No paywalls. No AI doing the work for you. Just the blueprint — the thinking is yours.
Open Infrastructure
Financial data should be a public good, not a competitive advantage for institutions with Bloomberg terminals.
Standardised, Not Summarised
We give you the numbers and the framework. You build the understanding. No pre-digested answers.
Built for Students
Finance students, CFA candidates, and aspiring analysts who deserve the same data quality as the institutions they want to work for.
The Name
Trikosh comes from Sanskrit. Tri maps to three — the three financial statements, and to Tripathi. Kosha means a structured treasury of knowledge. The name is rooted in the Pancha Kosha philosophy — five layers of understanding, each deeper than the last.
Open Source Forever
Trikosh is MIT licensed. The methodology is published. The pipeline is on GitHub. If you find an error, open an issue. If you want to add a company, submit a PR.
