Abstract: A method for responding to natural language financial performance queries received from a user device is provided herein. The method may include: receiving a first spoken natural language request from the user device; parsing the request into words, using a processor; searching a table of natural language words and keywords to determine whether the request includes any of the words stored in the table; generating instructions for querying a database based on one or more keywords; receiving financial information responding to the query from the database; and transmitting the financial information to the user device for display in a graphic format and/or for playback of an audio.
