great transcript search but cluttered interface and unstable iOS app
What do you like best about the product?
The best feature is transcript search. This saves time and enables me to find information relevant to a client conversation in real-time. The transcripts appear quickly after earnings calls and are high-fidelity.
What do you dislike about the product?
The user interface is cluttered. In part, this is because AlphaSense has diversified from its original mandate of transcript search to provide news and other features. I find these to be a distraction rather than value-added.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
AlphaSense enables me to research a theme, say 'Artificial Intelligence', across a range of companies, and to pull up information on particular topics, say 'earnings revisions', across time for an individual company
The best way to monitor the competitive landscape
What do you like best about the product?
The possibility of making and personalizing dashboards that cluster different attributes from AlphaSense as per your best convenience, enabling the best experience when looking to monitor a specific landscape.
When I was a new user, training was simple and I was ready in just a few steps.
Also, customer support is great, I had questions about what sources to enable in my searches and how to set up dashboards, and I had a couple of people from AlphaSense contact me to walk me through the tool and even set up a sample of dashboards for me to ease up the process even more.
I consider AlphaSense to be a key tool in my day to day job, I use it almost every day, either within the tool itself or through the email alerts that can be easily set up and shared.

What do you dislike about the product?
When you have a lot of dashboards, navigating through them can be confusing, I would like to have a way to cluster dashboards by topics, and that way have a cleaner navigation bar.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Through AlphaSense, I have major media sources in just one place and with the benefit of smart search, being able to combine search criteria and the ability to use a feature that I love, "proximity", how close I want my key words to be appart from each other. These features make searching much easier and seamless.
Through AlphaSense, I avoid having to look into several different websites and sources, which optimizes my time.

No other platform like it
What do you like best about the product?
Love how AS embraces new technologies like Gen AI to drive tangible value—the smart summary for transcripts are so helpful and insightful.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing! Only room for improvement would be to get faster and broader access to equity research or custom research but that's about it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helps me get comp intel quickly
Access to real time insights
What do you like best about the product?
Real time insights from various stakeholders. Access to extensive broker reports and a smart browser for easy navigation. It saves time and provides high quality insights for almost all the domains
What do you dislike about the product?
The newly added KOL interview segment is bit generic. In terms of insights, a lot can be improved by asking player to player competitive questions rather than focusing on overall market.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Provides expert analysis and industry perspective. Access to huge repository of latest quarterly events and transcripts. Real time/ early access to broker reports/ industry reports to build strategies
Great Research Tool
What do you like best about the product?
Massive document search library and financial data terminal.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was a more useful was to quickly see a list of a company's major filings sorted by annual and interim. Excel add-in needs improvement to match the previous Sentieo add-in.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Searching through the massive amount of filings, news, and research. AI summaries are very helpful and time saving.
Alphasense is great asset for my investment process!
What do you like best about the product?
Within my investment proces, Alphasense is really useful due to the following: 1) The layout of the central interface is very clear, as the user is able to see how many companies appear in a given word search, where in the filings the term/phrase occurred and the context of the term/phrase in the document. 2) The filters make it an efficient review, as I can exclude companies that are not relevant to my search. For example, I only look at companies in Europe and USA that trade >$20m ADV, so I can exclude companies that are not in my universe by filtering out those companies. Ultimately, this saves me time by not looking at companies I cannot look at as a potential investment opportunity. 3) The automated alerts are also helpful, as these help summarize new occurrences of my word search that are relevant. On a weekly basis, I get a summary of a word search term that is of interest to me. This helps summarize all of the relevant occurrences from new filings, which is easy to review. By being in an e-mail, I can review them on my phone on the way home from work.
What do you dislike about the product?
Based on my experience, the areas where Alphasense could improve are the following: 1) It would be helpful to have the ability to screen for insider buying/selling and be able to get a summary of insider transactions for a given company on a weekly basis just to identify any material changes. 2) It would be helpful for the product to provide blacklines for international (non-USA) companies. I find the USA blackline reports especially helpful, as I can quickly see what wording has changed from the previous filing. However, the blacklines appear to not be available for European companies. 3) Peer and larger customer information would be helpful to have on a concise screen. Some filings mention material (>10% of sales) customers. Therefore, it would be helpful to have a pre-arranged option to see the material customers for a given company. As this would be based on a word search, I think the preset option (i.e., material customers) would be possible to add as a feature to Alphasense.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My role is focused on identifying new investment opportunities for our clients. Part of my research process to identify new companies to review is to perform word searches that would imply the presence of certain characteristics at a company that I feel is a good predictor of potential pitfalls at a given company. During the initial screening process, I use AlphaSense to efficiently review filings of various companies that have these characteristics. The process is made more efficient by the various filtering variables (i.e., market cap, country, industry, filing types reviewed, etc.) that are available. Lastly, the layout is helpful, as it is clear where in the filings the searched for 'word' or 'phrase' occurred. Therefore, AlphaSense helps me to efficiently review multiple company filings, as part of my initial steps at identifying new investment opportunities that I can publish research on.
Helpful for large research reviews
What do you like best about the product?
I really like the smart summaries and the fact that the navigation is pretty intuitive for Alphasense. The customer support team is really helpful, and always reaches out when there is a new feature that they are rolling out. I would say I usually use Alphasense at least 1-2 times a week if not more.
What do you dislike about the product?
I am not a huge fan of how laggy it can be sometimes, and at times it is difficult to download some documents.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It solves having to dig through press releases and earnings for companies in my market intelligence search. It saves me time and I am also more efficient from using it.
Easy-to-use, all-in-one platform that increases efficiency
What do you like best about the product?
It's a great platform that consolidates various sources of data, which is a massive time saver. The AI search & ability to export data/tables are also very helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not entirely pleased with the new/recent rollout of vertical filters. I wish there were additional filtering options in the mobile app (e.g., sorting by custom date). Account support quality has slipped over the past couple of years, which has coincided with their (massive) growth.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Efficiency issues is the main problem that AlphaSense has helped solve
Great tool for monitoring the competitive landscape from every perspective
What do you like best about the product?
Having different dashboards for monitoring competitive events what ever it may be from a very broad array of sources such as company news, regulatory events, analysts' views or scientific publications is super helpful in ensuring we do not miss any important events. Daily reports are useful reminders and summaries of what is happening.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some minor improvements I would like to see in how the dashboards work, but the very responsive AlphaSense team has already taken note of that feedback.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping up-to-date with all developments in the competitive landscape. This allows us to ensure optimal positioning of our products now and in the future as well as to make informed decisions when we reach key milestones in product development.
Good for doing searches and trying to narrow down tables or charts
What do you like best about the product?
The ease with which you can get down to specific company documents.
What do you dislike about the product?
It sometimes just feels like a Google search.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ability to do a quick search on different topics (clinical trials or read-outs, for example).
