Overall Satisfaction with AlphaSense

We use AlphaSense for most of our thematic projects, which has helped us cut down research & insights turnaround time by more than 70% across projects. Apart from this, we also use the tool for preparing analysis post earnings announcements - since these need to be prepared within a few days of the release, AlphaSense helps us in gathering insights more efficiently and effectively.

  • Helped me export financials directly to excels, cutting down on manual work
  • Could be more sector-specific e.g. in house developed insurance sector-specific research & insights
  • Could have data/ reports from third-party sources such as S&P, Moody's, Fitch
  • Could add CrunchBase or CB Insights data to give a tech-focused dimension to the platform
  • Enhanced efficiency
  • Enhanced insights
  • Streamlining output

The tool has helped to cut down turnaround time on time-critical analysis, helping to speed up go-to-market efforts on key deliveries. It has also helped in delivering distinctive insights since it helps in getting key information from thousands of pages of documents that are impossible to read in a short time period - thereby sharply enhancing the credibility of our research.
AlphaSense has a superior search engine, which allows it to get very targeted research and news - thereby helping to cut down on noise, and improve efficiency and insights - which Factiva lags. On the other hand, it has more features compared to Sentieo or Amenity Analytics.

AlphaSense would be best suited for thematic research on specific topics (e.g. blockchain or artificial intelligence or machine learning), earnings summaries and analysis, and strategic insights where we can search for specific initiatives (e.g. digital) It is less suited for niche data-specific analysis (e.g. market share for Allianz in different markets where it is operating).
