Real-Time Message Parsing

SOLVE’s Quotes & Composite Pricing solution sets a new standard in the industry, leveraging cutting-edge Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning technologies. Unlike other so called parsers, that are heavily dependent on consistent email formats or templates, our state-of-the-art parser is entirely format-agnostic and is specifically trained to detect and extract nuanced trader lingo in highly conversational messages, spreadsheets, and other attachments ensuring unparalleled coverage, accuracy, and quality of data.

With SOLVE’s proprietary in-house parsing technology, we excel in capturing even the smallest nuances in quotes. Our solution aggregates a wide range of crucial pricing and market information, including Bids, Offers, Sizes, Price Talk, Covers, and various spread and yield conventions such as G, Z, OAS, Payups, YTC, YTM, YTW, and more. By extracting all relevant data within the message, our parsing capabilities deliver comprehensive insights and enable precise analysis.
