The Hidden Cost of Fragmented Research
The average financial analyst spends hours of their day toggling between data terminals, research platforms, and Excel models just to answer basic questions. A simple comp analysis requires pulling financials and KPIs from a variety of sources, then hunting through transcripts and reports for the qualitative context that makes those numbers meaningful.
This constant context-switching doesn't just waste time; it fragments thinking, introduces errors, and leaves critical insights buried across disconnected tools.
The Future of Research Is Here
With the launch of AlphaSense Financial Data, we're pioneering a new era of research. By integrating standardized financials, key performance metrics, and valuation data with purpose-built functionality, we enable professionals to conduct critical research workflows, from deal sourcing to strategy validation, more efficiently than ever.
Integrated with domain-specific AI, the platform connects clean quantitative data with qualitative market intelligence, delivering cited, contextualized answers in one trusted place.

See How AlphaSense Unifies Numbers + Narrative
Smarter Workflows with Financial Data
Here’s how Financial Data transforms common workflows across finance and corporate strategy:
Unified Numbers and Narrative Analysis
AlphaSense unifies quantitative data with qualitative context. Combine financial data with filings, broker research, transcripts, and expert calls, all within one platform.
Screening Companies, Deals & Transactions
Ask a natural-language question like:
“What are the 10 largest SaaS M&A deals in the past five years?”
AlphaSense instantly returns a ranked list with deal values, multiples, participants, and a rationale-rich summary — each with clickable citations.
Comparables at Scale
Instead of manually assembling peer sets, start with Industry Comps or the Equity Screener. Compare revenue growth, margins, and hard-to-find sector KPIs across custom peer sets in minutes, not hours.
Building comps used to be 60% data gathering. Now it’s minutes, not hours.
Monitoring Complex KPIs
Track hard-to-find metrics — like SaaS net retention, biotech trial success rates, or retail same-store sales — without digging through filings.
KPIs flow directly from Canalyst models, with definitions and audit trails included.
Model Refresh & Maintenance
With the Excel Add-In and Canalyst Models, you can refresh an entire model or board-deck tear sheet instantly.
With competitors, it can be painful — numbers get hard-coded. With AlphaSense, everything just works.
