OpenBB’s Open Data Platform: Local-First AI Data Pipelines (OSFF NY Preview)

FINOS Open Source in Finance Podcast

🚀 Get a sneak peek of Ihsan Saracgil’s OSFF NY session on how OpenBB’s Open Data Platform (ODP) lets teams connect private, proprietary, and public financial data to AI—securely, locally, and on your terms.In this clip:Ihsan Saracgil, CPO, OpenBBTired of waiting on scarce engineering cycles for every integration? Ihsan shows how ODP gives data engineers a Python-native, local-first way to register extensions, wrap external sources as APIs, and serve them to downstream tools (copilots, notebooks, dashboards) with full control of credentials, execution, and access. He also breaks down why Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a game-changer: wire up tools to your AI copilot fast—so tasks that once required custom plumbing (even “send me that result via email”) become quick, safe, and auditable. With a lightweight GUI (Tauri) and standardized FastAPI/OpenAPI specs, ODP helps teams unify messy data pipelines without leaking business logic to third-party platforms.🎟️ See Ihsan’s full talk at OSFF New York (Oct 21–22, 2025).🌐 More about FINOS: https://www.finos.org/📧 Join our newsletter: https://www.finos.org/newsletter#FINOS #OSFFNY #OpenBB #OpenSourceInFinance #FinancialData #AI #Copilots #MCP #DataEngineering #LocalFirst
