Following a failed bid for New York City comptroller last fall, Eliot Spitzer is returning to the spotlight with a new project that aims to hold Wall Street analysts accountable.

The disgraced former governor, who was forced to resign from office amid a prostitution scandal in 2008, revealed his latest venture during an appearance Tuesday on CNBC.

DealBook reports TipRanks is an Israeli startup that recently secured $3 million in funding. Spitzer has actually been involved with the website since 2012, but is now an "active" board member and "lead investor," according to The Wall Street Journal's MarketWatch.

During his CNBC appearance, Spitzer said the site is supported by 19 "wizards back in Israel" who analyze the records of professionals making stock recommendations in an attempt to provide investors with transparent, data-driven information.
