Evaluating finance research agents requires rubrics that reflect expert standards and fix the values correct as of an information cutoff. Expert-reviewed finance benchmarks rely on fixed, per-item rubrics, which are costly to extend and cannot encode each institution's own standard. In FinAutoRubric, experts specify reusable evaluation guidance, while agents and code carry out query-specific rubric generation, review, and validation. This expert guidance governs every agent, as prompts and as rules that code enforces, and a Task Bank of reusable criteria carries it across tasks. In long-horizon loops that follow the expert guidance, a writer agent researches every expected value and a reviewer agent verifies it, and failures escalate to a human. On three expert-authored finance benchmarks, its rubrics track expert scoring as closely as the strongest evaluated generator while stating the expert rubric's expected value for more criteria, their scores agree with human grading, and in-house analysts prefer them in a blind review. The released 100-query FinAutoRubric Benchmark, built from in-house analysts' key questions across 78 tasks and eight asset classes, shows that rubrics from an earlier model generation still leave headroom for a later one.

Diffusion models achieve high-quality image generation but remain computationally expensive due to iterative denoising across many timesteps. Existing acceleration methods mainly reduce per-sample latency, but gains along this axis are becoming saturated. We instead explore an orthogonal throughput-oriented direction by processing multiple samples within a single denoising evaluation. To this end, we propose ManiFusion, a backbone-agnostic framework for multi-sample generation through fused-space computation. ManiFusion jointly processes multiple samples by fusing them before the denoising backbone and separating them afterward through unfusion. We provide a geometric perspective on how multiple samples can share a fused representation while retaining the information needed to guide their individual generation trajectories. To better align fusion allocation with denoising stages, ManiFusion uses Trajectory-Fusion Scheduling (TFS), which dynamically adjusts fusion factors throughout sampling. ManiFusion generalizes across diffusion families, including both U-Net and transformer backbones in pixel and latent spaces. We further show that ManiFusion composes with existing acceleration methods and reaches throughput regimes unattainable by prior approaches with minimal quality degradation.
