What AlphaSense does

Who it’s for: portfolio managers, buy-side and sell-side analysts, and strategy teams who research companies or sectors and track a universe of stocks.

Multi-agent generative search

Several agents reason at the same time across qualitative information, structured financial data and your own internal knowledge.

Deep Research

An agent that AlphaSense describes as a team of highly skilled analysts, compressing weeks of analysis into minutes. Use it on broad topics, before the close reading.

Workflow Agents

You build and deploy your own agents, which can be scheduled, to do the work for you.

Also

  • Monitoring: dashboards and alerts
  • Tegus expert interviews
  • Enterprise Intelligence: your files
  • Deliverables in house formats

What the free plan includes

Nova’s advice

Start with the trial on a sector you know, and ask which modules (Tegus, Enterprise Intelligence, Office add-ins) are included before comparing prices.

A first try, in 10 minutes

Your data. AlphaSense states that models are never trained on customer content and that it works only with model providers that retain no data.

What it does less well

  • No page we read gives prices, languages or a hosting region. The security page talks about data residency without naming a region.
  • Single sign-on (SSO) is not mentioned on the security page.
