Max Efficiency and improved productivity
What do you like best about the product?
Incredible flexibility with search filters and search keywords connected to geography & company/set of companies is very unique
What do you dislike about the product?
May be, the UI could improve even further. But not sure how, probably something familiar to other websites could help during initial learning.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Solving for tracking specific searches within a set of companies and a great tool to catch synonymous keywords for your search including relevant semantics.
Helps massively improve efficiency and generate broader PoV around key themes

A very thorough product with a 'beyond the bloomberg terminal' experience
What do you like best about the product?
I like the summarisation tools surrounding the transcripts, such as the green/red highlighting for positive/negative points about a company. This helps me get to the meat of the discussion quickly and determine whether it is worth looking at in more detail. Also, the ability to make a request for companies not currently on the terminal is brilliant - almost an open-source approach to growing their database.
What do you dislike about the product?
The sector outlook is great, but it needs work - often there are sectors peers that do not quite fit with the target company, though I am pretty sure Stream is looking to patch this up soon as the platform grows and develops.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I needed something more than just financial databases and earnings calls/annual filings. The latter only really discusses things in a positive light, whilst the former contributes very little to understanding a business and its underlying issues. I very much wanted to go backstage when analyzing potential companies, which is where Stream came in.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would take the plunge and give it a try. Their database is growing every day and I am confident that they will eventually reach almost every corner of global markets.
Data analysis made easy with AlphaSense
What do you like best about the product?
I love how AlphaSense enables me to quickly and easily search for data from multiple sources, such as companies, research, the SEC, and the press. I appreciate the most, however, the ability to quickly share specific tables, charts, and paragraphs with colleagues and other stakeholders. AlphaSense makes it easy to pinpoint essential data and verify claims.
What do you dislike about the product?
When I search within a document, AlphaSense crashes and takes a long time to load. Additionally, I prefer to have the option to disable sentiment by default, since it takes a long time to load.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With AlphaSense, I can quickly access large amounts of data and gain insights that would otherwise have been impossible. AlphaSense has enabled me to make informed decisions and uncover new growth opportunities.
Great tool to quickly build industry perspective
What do you like best about the product?
When researching a company in a new industry or maintaining awareness in a followed industry, Stream saves a significant amount of time by sourcing quality interviewees. It has become a go-to source early in the research process for me.
What do you dislike about the product?
These are a bit nitpicky, but Stream could be better in a couple of areas. The first is better integration with other investing tools like BamSEC and other data analytics providers. The second would be better search results. For example, sometimes the search tool misses keywords, and sometimes I need to search around the exact keyword I want to find what I'm looking for. This doesn't often happen, though, and I am generally quite happy with the tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Stream helps bring together industry participants to discuss current industry trends, future developments, and company-specific perspectives. Historically, this research step takes a great effort to curate the correct interviewees. Stream saves significant time by curating qualified interviewees and then providing tools to catalog and help find specific research items.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for data/insights to determine a company's next quarter, Stream is NOT for you. However, if you want a service and tool to quickly build industry awareness early in the research process, Stream is definitely for you.
Stream is an amazing tool / option for analysts - best way to catch up to industry experts quickly.
What do you like best about the product?
My favorite part is the summaries. It allows me to digest a ton of information and screen which calls will be most helpful and relevant. Other services don't have this.
What do you dislike about the product?
My only concern is these services become table stakes for all analysts. Ie the extra benefit is no longer a benefit but a requirement. Even if so, its an incredible resource for learning quickly, which will always make my life as an analyst much easier.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
They help find amazing contacts and their analysts do a great on calls asking the important questions. I can schedule follow up calls to go deeper if i want. This makes my life easier as an analyst.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Strongly recommend, arguably my favorite resource out there.
Great tool for differentiated business insights
What do you like best about the product?
I like the volume of available expert calls and insights from the library. When I want to get up to speed, I can read or listen to 10-20 calls which help me get into the mindset of industry participants and help me ask better questions when conducting my investment underwriting process.
What do you dislike about the product?
The history of the library only goes back a couple of years (lacks some depth), the mobile app could work better (there are some minor UX/UI issues), I am not a huge fan of the sentiment analysis overlay generated by AlphaSense (just don't add value for me but doesn't necessarily detract).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Provides on-the-ground commentary from experts in any given company or industry. I use Stream as part of my research process when researching potential investments and staying up to speed on current trends in an industry I am familiar with.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Figure out how to use Stream as part of your investment process. It is best used in conjunction with standard fundamental work (Ks & Qs). It can certainly draw insights not available by just reading the SEC filings. Also figure out how to gauge the context from which each expert's perspective is derived. There is some clear bias from some experts but that doesn't mean their views don't have validity/signal.
Stream Has A Healthy Database of Knowledgeable Experts That I Use Regularly For My Research
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Stream consistently sources qualified experts for the companies that I am interested in.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the call audio quality could still be improved
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is primarily helping me to more efficiently allocate my time when it comes to research. I can quickly get up to speed on a business and go deeper when necessary.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The question of whether or not to pay for Stream comes down to your own personal budget and how much you value your time. I believe that you only get quality insights from having numerous conversations with people about a subject. Stream helps me in that sense because they have proven capable of sourcing numerous experts on a given subject/company and that expedites my research process. I can either very quickly pass on a company or go deeper in ways that were previously much slower.
Extremely intuitive and easy to manage
What do you like best about the product?
The platform is very well designed and intuitive- It is very easy to find the people I want to talk to and coordinate a time to talk
What do you dislike about the product?
The actual quality of the calls is still sometimes poor (better than before). I find that calls are rescheduled quite often
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Providing detailed, insightful primary research across the vertical and horizontal spread of a company
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Highly recommend. As someone looking for insight into an industry or company it's incredible. As an analyst looking to have interesting conversations and for your own research it's invaluable
Sream by Alphasense is a consistently reliable source of industry expertise
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about Stream is its simplicity, making vast amounts of domain knowledge accessible within a few keystrokes.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not every expert is a natural orator, so you will find some interviews that are less pointed than others.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
No amount of earnings calls or company visits will provide the on-the-ground insider perspective that Stream offers
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You'll be hooked in a week.
Gold Standard of Strategic Research
What do you like best about the product?
The curated newsfeed is like having a superpower at work where every competitor's maneuver is in your inbox as soon as the press release drops. It's a breeze to use and so helpful in scanning financial filings.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's a bit of a struggle the one area they don't really blow the competition out of the water is their profiles on private companies can sometimes be a bit less robust than other platform like Pitchbook or Factset, but I'm sure they are actively working to improve this functionality.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Alphasense is helping us maintain our strategic edge, it helps us identify trends within our competitors, identify new partnerships that may require strategic action and help us move to a more proactive way of managing strategy.
