Chose AlphaSense
Actually have both AlphaSense and FactSet. Each has its uniqueness but all depends on nature of the task or project at hand.
We use both CB Insights and AlphaSense for our work. While CB Insights is better suited for private companies, especially startups, AlphaSense is unmatched in its data for large, typically public companies and broader industry research.
Alphasense has a much broader coverage breadth, as it includes financial data, market data, private research, and expert interviews, while the others are more limited.
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 …
I inherited AlphaSense access by joining my current role. AlphaSense's financial and deal information can not match pitchbooks. It does have better summarization for financial than pitchbook though.
I am not sure why you won't let me select EMIS Next, but that is a great tool with a lot of very good data that does not seem to be on your platform: Frost & Sullivan Mordor Intelligence
AlphaSense is simply the best software when it comes to finding information from publicly available documents and their access to sell-side research. While it has some room to go in terms of their access to financials, they've already made significant improvements and I'm …
I prefer to use both in conjunction; AlphaSense generally provides deeper insights, but I'm unsure if it is readily available or the newest (Market cap).
Search and analysis of public market data - analyst feedback and management commentary: I would prefer AlphaSense over other Quant analysis of market data / charting: I would prefer S&P for Excel Plugins PItchbook: Proprietary private market and VC data
Special features of AlphaSense that made us decide on this CI platform: - US-based market and competitive intelligence platform with various premium content (broker information, expert calls, earning transcripts, original company documents etc.) - AlphaSense is a trusted CI …
I use TBR for totally different research. I use them for news about corporate direction, investment in technologies and executive leadership changes; M&A and corporate ventures; technology partnerships; and recent contract awards. AlphaSense gives deeper insights with Expert …
Experts calls can help you to decide whether or not invest in a company. can give you insights on culture which is not easy to find in Annual reports. Tegus is much better in summarizing experts calls as well as give you a summary of experts calls called TOP INVESTORS QUESTIONS …
All of them are better than AlphaSense. However, Bloomberg is over twice as expensive, and people are just paying a premium for Chat (which I don't want). I have not used Factset for over three years. When I last used it, I would say that it was slightly better than AlphaSense …
AlphaSense has better document search but is otherwise vastly inferior in every other way. If doc search isn't important to you, I wouldn't bother with AlphaSense.
AlphaSense is largely complementary to CapIQ or Eikon. CapIQ and Eikon do offer research capabliities for an additional fee, though it's currently more cost effective to use AlphaSense. Pitchbook is still a must have if you need to evaluate start-ups/private companies
I like the fact that Gemini gives you 3 options of possible answers, and if they don't fit your needs, you are able to have other 3, until you get the best result. I have seen that the results that Gemini provides are more accurate than others. It also evolving frequently and …
Gemini seems very simple to use, veyr similar to ChatGPT, I wish they did have a capability such as ChatGPT projects one, so one can separate topics easily, it's very customizable, where I believe it defeats the others is that, is already very simple to use all of Google …
Google Gemini, when compared to other AI Tools, can be rated as follows. - Creativity: Best - Product Research: Best - User Interface: Best - Features: Very Good - Code Generation: Very Good - Documentation: Very Good - Accuracy: Good - Speed: Good Considering the above …
Google is free and included in my workspace subscription. Claude has no image generation. Google Gemini is also a Google product, so I assume it will be able to have a better understanding of the areas on Google I am trying to market. Overall, I think it's better than Claude, …
Hootsuite's OwlyGPT is great for social listening data, but Gemini is far ahead in terms of caption writing and other writing needs. Even for content creation ideas, I'd rather take the social listening insights then feed that to Gemini.
Gemini can fix its hallucination and generic output problem to get at part with Perplexity. Additionally, to beat in web search, it can produce citation after every information given. By this it can gain users trust. Sometimes, it doesn't give output only. such instances can be …
Google Gemini has the best context window in the market, the parameters are incredible and the speed is fantastic. It will lose for ChatGPT by seniority. It has the same tools now and the integration with the Google environment makes adding AI to any project, seamless. It is …
I like the UI of Google Gemini way more, and I also love the inbuilt integrations it has with open google docs and sheets. ChatGPT does not have (AFAIK) a Deep research section. Google Gemini Gems is also an awesome addition which helps to automate mundane/repetitive tasks. I …
Best at productivity based tasks that I encounter in the workplace. I spend about 20% of my time developing, and a majority of it doing overhead or operational tasks. Google Gemini is the best for analyzing spreadsheets, performing forecasting tasks, etc. If I was more …
Google Gemini stands tall in this league of AI chat tools. It has a good clean interface and good ability to answer questions quickly on questions related to research and development. However, It lacks integration with IDE tools such as Chat GPT's integration with Microsoft …
Google Gemini does pretty well against ChatGPT in regards to the information sourced and accuracy. Gemini's user interface is about the same, however I find it a bit cleaner, especially the way information is outputted. We use a lot of the Google Suite products, so access to …
Google Gemini has the advantage of being integrated with the Google family of products, very well know and used world abroad. Like, using workspace, Gemini can read my email and make a daily summary, search for urgent and important stuff, etc. Also, Gemini allows me to do …
AlphaSense is very well suited to investing teams that need a research management system that has a robust database behind and rich content management features for note-taking. AlphaSense may not be well-suited to individual investors who want data access but don't need to be sharing notes to a wider team. The sharing features are what make AlphaSense most useful.
Google Gemini AI features a Deep Research feature that helped us conduct thorough product research. We wanted to minimize the costs incurred by using SSL certificates in our organization, but we lacked knowledge on the subject. Google Gemini Deep Research did a thorough analysis and suggested ways to cut costs by switching vendors and using DV-type and/or wildcard SSL certificates. We also use Google Gemini for assistance during software development. However, Google Gemini seems to have limitations when suggesting code snippets for the Microsoft ecosystem.
Deep research for getting first business research draft from Gemini, post which i use series of prompts to improve it and use my understanding to refine it further
Canvas to produce structured business topic research and newsletter. Direct edits to the sections and making client ready reports
Learning mode to get help on step by step automation of AI workflows
Currently the document database caps out at 10, requiring us to condense some of our policies
It's large context window is a blessing and a curse. Sometimes it stops generating half way through a very ambitious request as it delivers page after page of content
There is no way to share Gems currently, so we have to publish guides to our employees on how to best configure them
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
For my daily work AlphaSense is inevitable, as it holds a real added value compared to most of the CI platforms. It really makes my work more efficient and contributes to better strategy and decision making in the company. Datalog is available up to 15 years, which is a real advantage compared to other CI platforms that can only start competitor monitoring following the signature of the agreement.
It is simple, has the same standard industry format, all the tools are accessible and recognizable. Whenever we are in the browser we can switch from one request to another while the first is still running. Little hallucination and the context window has no competitor on the market right now. The pricing is also the biggest advantage.
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.
Trainers address the basics, and such training was meant for new users. Instructions are really helpful by providing scenarios that our team will face in our daily tasks. It will be more thoughtful if the training is conducted by case studies so as to allow new users to get first-hand experience during the training.
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
Gemini seems very simple to use, veyr similar to ChatGPT, I wish they did have a capability such as ChatGPT projects one, so one can separate topics easily, it's very customizable, where I believe it defeats the others is that, is already very simple to use all of Google ecosystem, such as Drive, docs, sheets and else
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.
Research speed has now increased to a single day, allowing us to find everything we want about an industry, compared to 3-5 days before with Alphasense.
Comps analysis, gathering detailed financial information, is now seamless and can be completed in less than 1 hour, compared to 1-2 days.
Expert interview access, before Alphasense, we had no way of including this into our analysis. This has significantly improved the quality of our decisions and research.
