AlphaSense

AlphaSense operates an AI-powered market intelligence platform used by professionals to search and extract insights from large volumes of business content. Founded in 2011 by Jack Kokko, a former investment banker, the company applies natural language search, generative AI and enterprise search techniques to business documents. Its core product indexes more than 500 million curated business documents and is designed to return actionable insights in seconds.

The platform has been extended through a series of acquisitions. Tegus contributes an expert network and expert transcripts; BamSEC supplies company filings and SEC data; Canalyst adds financial data and models; and Sentieo brings AI-powered research and generative AI capabilities. Each has been integrated into the AlphaSense platform rather than run as a standalone product. The company sells mainly into financial services, including investment banking and investment research, as well as market research and enterprise business intelligence.

AlphaSense employs more than 2,000 people and reports over 6,500 enterprise clients, among them the majority of the S&P 500. The headquarters is in New York, with further offices in Helsinki, London, Pune and Singapore. Technical work spans artificial intelligence, generative AI, natural language search, market intelligence and enterprise search.

The company describes its culture as mission-driven, oriented around moving decision-makers from complexity to clarity and around reducing research inefficiency for professionals.
