Philosophy

The bond market is enormous — over $140 trillion globally — yet the data is fragmented across many systems, and the expertise is tacit, learned over years on a desk. Oasive is the intelligence layer that gives any desk, small or large, analyst-grade research and analysis on demand. We are not replacing portfolio managers. We are giving every desk the leverage only the largest have today.

The problem

The work portfolio managers do is hard and good. Workflows have evolved through years of on-the-job knowledge — learning what matters, what does not, and how to find signal in the noise.

But data lives across many systems. Prices are not always transparent. Much of the real edge is tacit knowledge that is not in any textbook — you learn it from someone over years on a desk. There is no easy way to package that expertise and make it available on demand.

Our approach

Domain depth. We are building for people who know the market, not tourists. Every feature is designed by someone who has done the job — managed a portfolio, run a trade, analyzed prepays.

Real data with citations. Every answer is grounded in official agency disclosures, public economic releases, and intraday market data. Freshness is shown inline. No hallucinations, no hand-waving.

Multi-turn analysis. Ask a follow-up. Request another chart. Drill into any number. The conversation adapts to where you want to go, not where a static PDF ended.

Supercharging analysts, not replacing them. We give your team more leverage — more coverage, faster turnaround, deeper analysis. The judgment stays with you.

Expanding over time. Macro and agency MBS today. Munis, ABS, and corporates next. One platform for the desk, not five.

What we cover today

Macro — rates, inflation, growth, the Fed, financial conditions, credit, FX, international. Daily and weekly briefs, FOMC and economic-release notes, on-demand research.

Agency MBS — pool screening, collateral, S-curves, comparables, prepay analytics. Millions of pools and loans, searchable in plain English.

Munis, ABS, and corporates coming next.

Founder & CEO

Anaïs Howland, CFA

I started my career in fixed income — first at Wells Fargo, leading purchase allocation for a $350B MBS portfolio, then at Google Treasury, managing a $17B MBS/ABS book. Six years on the buy-side, learning how the market actually works.

After that, I moved into AI product strategy at Google for three years — working on GenAI across Search, Gemini, Maps, and Shopping.

Last year, I left to start Paradigm Shift AI in the computer-use agent infrastructure space. Through that experience, I realized I wanted to work on a problem where I had even deeper founder-market fit.

That led me to Oasive. It sits at the intersection of everything I have done: I understand fixed income deeply, I know how to build in AI, and I have been through the process of starting a company before. Oasive is the platform I wished I had on every desk I sat on.
