Overall Satisfaction with AlphaSense

I use AlphaSense to stay up to date of what happens in the world and how our industry is evolving. It is very valuable for me as it combines a lot of sources of information into 1 single platform.

On top of that AlphaSense offers a LLM that can help me quickly get the answer to my questions. This has proven to be very helpful and has been one of the better LLMs I have used on similar platforms.

Pros

  • Finding and collecting relevant sources of information
  • Large Language Model (AI)
  • Customer Success Management/Manager

Cons

  • Provide clear use cases of how you can benefit from the platform
  • Have more local news sources (especially those behind paywalls)
  • We are still defining the impact and use cases for AlphaSense
The tool keeps it simple, and I appreciate that. It is very easy to learn, although I find that the tool is lacking options for sharing insights.

The notebook is helpful, but still a bit underdeveloped in my opinion. I have lately started to combine the AI with the notebook, and I think this is proving a valuable use case. Still, I struggle in how I can bring the insights to others within my organization.
Not really at the moment, it has only been doing that for myself. Which is valuable, but as mentioned before, I need to find a way on how I can bring AlphaSense to my colleagues. Without them each having their own license.

So, in other words, I get the full experience. But how can I bring a "light" experience to my stakeholders that still proves to be valuable? This for me is the challenge to solve and I have not yet found a stable solution.
