AlphaSense is a market intelligence platform used by companies and financial institutions. Since 2011, their AI-based technology has helped professionals make business decisions by delivering insights from public and private content—including company filings, event transcripts, news, trade journals, and equity research. The platform boasts users among 4,000 enterprise customers. Headquartered in New York City, AlphaSense employs over 1,000 people across offices in the U.S., U.K., Finland, and…
We're very happy with the search results, and even better, the ability to impact the actual results with their weighting and priority tools. The integration was easy enough, but the expectations during the sales process was that the AddSearch team would handle more of the implementation. At the end of the day this wasn't a huge deal due to our internal engineering team, but is a caveat for others. We're happy to see continued development of the product and the infusion of AI in the feature set.

Amazing at reflecting customer feedback into the product. In my work, great for executive requests for feedback. Less appropriate for now in terms of daily integration into my workflows, but has the potential to be as the platform grows into an all encompassing work and insight tool. Can expand beyond intelligence into all work

AI summaries of earnings reports are helpful at a high level, but be wary of repetitive content.
AlphaSense handles images and screen captures pretty well, making research notes more useful.
Isolating content is pretty intuitive. Example: I can enter a ticker, and under the content options I can click for "transcripts only" so that I'm not endlessly scrolling to find the transcript I want.
Audio is embedded with most transcripts so it's easy to listen and follow along in the text, highlighting what I need for later reference.

I believe the AI agent could be improved to answer more detailed questions and provide better data.
Access to real time financial data in a similar vein to Koyfin.
The ability to easily search across all company decks to be able to quickly gather all relevant slides for a specific topic, similar to what Quartr offers.

AlphaSense is a very useful tool and is reasonably priced for our organization. While I may not be a hyper-active user, it's a great resource when I need to quickly do a competitive landscape survey, review publicly available documents (transcripts, etc.), or review Wall Street research

AlphaSense has the highest-quality content among the platforms I use. Your search is only as good as the database you're querying, and AlphaSense provides access to the best, most trusted sources of data. I've especially enjoyed the new sources they've been adding, such as expert interview transcripts.

The availability of Alphasense is great. I have used the software for multiple years and cannot remember ever having an outage issue. This is surprising actually, as I use other software applications that do not have regular outages, but still have outages periodically. Alphasense, on the other hand, never seems to have any outages. Good sign if I can't remember the software not working :).

Loading or performing searches on AlphaSense platform is reasonably fast for most of the time. However, it is sometimes unacceptably long for me to load PDF files (earnings presentation, supplementary financial report) on AlphaSense. Certain features might also take very long time, such as loading for "similar tables" across EDGAR filings, or downloading tables from EDGAR filings

Customer support is very prompt. I get personalized support for search recommendations and content that I could not find in my own search. Support checks in with me on a bi-monthly basis to keep me informed of the many different feature additions, I cannot find a more kind, understanding, and supportive team.
The person was prepared, attentive, understood the nature of my questions, was willing to work through any difficulties or misunderstandings, was patient, and super pleasant to work with. Great customer service.

Our online training was led by a AlphaSense representative. The training is always good. The bigger issue is our time availability to remember the training and utilize it. The trainers will show us examples and then ask us for real industries or companies of interest to use so that the training is most relevant.

AddSearch was not as customizable as the other solutions we looked at, but it was also seemed to be the easiest to integrate. Ultimately, the integration time took longer than expected, but was still relatively easy. The interface was an easier to use interface than the competitors we looked at. Price was also a factor as AddSearch was a lower cost.

Compared to FactSet and PitchBook, AlphaSense is a good tool to fill my suite of financial analysis. PitchBook is superior for private company and transaction data, as well as screening for similar companies (the sourcing feature of the job). FactSet is superior for financial analysis for public companies, as well as charting data. AlphaSense is superior in research for documents and deep dive industry research (mostly qualitative) and grabbing data from financial documents

It has been very simple. Contract terms are standard for an online portal. Of course, I would like unit pricing to be lower so I could get more users on the license or to rotate seats to get more value out of each license. Billing frequency has been standard as well. This could be more significant for a larger customer.

The sharing features provides by AlphaSense mean that it can be readily scaled for teams within an organization and, subject to compliance requirements, with client organizations. The ability to share annotations of transcripts and investor releases is valuable, and facilitates collaboration between analysts.

AlphaSense has allowed us to generate deeper competitive insights. For example, we conducted an in depth analysis of the aerial data analytics (drone) industry, and AlphSense helped us narrow in on the market leaders and their various strengths / weaknesses.
AlphaSense has improved our team's overall efficiency. With Stream in particular, we are able to pinpoint insights in a matter of minutes through the transcript feature as opposed to having to conduct a series of calls ourselves. This is a significant time saver.
AlphaSense has allowed us to make more informed decisions on our public holdings by providing us with unfettered access to equity research analyst reports.
