What do you like best about the product?
AlphaSense provides a concise platform that has all the information I could possibly need all in one place. From research, to transcript, filings and general industry news, I am able to find anything I need and more quickly and concisely. The AI tools for keyword searches is incredibly accurate and often generates associated results I had not thought of searching for. I find the daily notification emails I've customized to be a great way to ensure I don't miss any relevant industry news. And then finally, whenever I encounter an issue (more often when I don't know how to perform a certain search), the support team is quick to respond and extremely knowledgeable.
What do you dislike about the product?
To be honest, the hardest part is just the vast accessibility of the information. You need to be thoughtful in your search to ensure you don't go down a tangential rabbit hole (which happens frequently). The two downsides to the program is the lack of an ability to auto-generate a PIB or other single document of consolidated information on public companies for senior leaders. Additionally, not having a more interactive SEC filing program that allows me to look across quarter / years / similar filings means that I have to maintain a separate subscription with Bamsec. That said, the we've been notified that AlphaSense is working to develop both these features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As an investor relations and strategy professional, I use AlphaSense on a daily basis to monitor market sentiment, street analysis and competitor actions. Without AlphaSense, I would not be able to maintain a pulse on investors for our company nor would I be able to generate competitive insights for senior management and our board. Having all the reasearch tools I need in one place makes searches and data aggregation extremely easy.
