Financial Knowledge,
One Conversation Away.
Whether you run a business or work in finance, Birr AI keeps an up-to-date corpus of Ethiopian laws, alerts you when regulators publish, and answers quick questions in plain language, with every answer cited to its source.
Under Directive ONPS/01/2020, a payment instrument issuer must maintain a minimum paid-up capital of Birr 50 million. Licensed banks and microfinance institutions instead apply for authorization, with capital assessed at the institutional level.

Core features
Built for hard questions,
designed for honest answers.
A chatbot that treats the corpus as data first: retrieval for prose, deterministic queries for facts, citations for everything.
Grounded answers
Every substantive claim carries its citation, separated visually from the prose — and each citation links straight to the official file on its source website. We never re-host or proxy the documents.
Exact counts
"How many directives this year?" hits the database directly — a COUNT(*), not an estimate from retrieved text.
Context carries
Follow-ups resolve like conversation: "summarize it", "compare them" — or pin one document and stay scoped to it.
Honest misses
If a document is not in the collection, Birr AI says so plainly instead of improvising around the gap.
Fresh by construction
The index re-harvests hourly from official source websites, with publication dates parsed from the documents themselves.
English-only extraction
Amharic-script pages are filtered deterministically before indexing, so answers stay in clean English.
Multi-source by design
National Bank of Ethiopia, Ethiopian Securities Exchange, Capital Market Authority, and Ministry of Revenue — one index, more sources on the way.
Independent by design
Not an official product of any listed institution. Sources sit beside answers so verification is always one click away.
How it works
Three steps to your answer
Browse
Search and filter the full index of official documents — directives, proclamations, notices, reports.
Ask
Question the collection in plain language, from a quick availability check to a cross-document comparison.
Verify
Every answer cites the exact source file on its official website, so checking the original is always one click.
The index
Every document,
one click from the source.
Search, filter by category and date, sort by newest — and jump straight to the download page on each document's official source website.
