# AlphaSense review (2026): is it worth it?

> AI market intelligence search across filings, research and transcripts

Checked Nov 12, 2026 · graded Nov 12, 2026 by ToolGPA.

AlphaSense is an enterprise market intelligence platform that searches company documents, broker research, news, regulatory filings and expert call transcripts, including a firm's own internal content. Its SuperAnalyst AI agent turns that material into summaries, decks and repeatable workflows. It is sold to organizations in finance, consulting, law and industry rather than to individuals.

## Pricing

AlphaSense's current pricing could not be confirmed from its own site.


## Key features

- **SuperAnalyst agent:** An always-on AI agent that turns the platform's sources and a firm's own knowledge into summaries, decision-ready deliverables and repeatable workflows.
- **Large curated content set:** The homepage cites 500M+ business documents, including company filings, broker and independent research, news, regulatory material and expert transcripts.
- **Expert transcripts:** Includes the Tegus expert interview library, and the vendor also arranges live expert calls as a separate service.
- **Office add-ins and connectors:** PowerPoint and Excel add-ins and app connectors bring the platform into Microsoft Office and other tools, and are listed in both packages.
- **API and MCP access:** The Enterprise Suite adds an API and an MCP server that let other AI assistants and agents use SuperAnalyst.
- **Internal content search:** The Enterprise Suite lists a firm's internal content as searchable alongside the vendor's own sources.

## Good for

- Investment banks, funds and consultancies doing company and market research
- Corporate strategy teams tracking competitors and industries
- Organizations that want market research inside their own AI assistants

## Worth knowing

- No prices are published: the pricing page says to contact sales and describes enterprise-wide and per-seat plans without figures.
- It is sold in two packages, Market Intelligence and Enterprise Suite, and the API, MCP and internal content are listed for Enterprise Suite only.
- The pages read describe an enterprise platform; a free trial is hinted at by a Get Started for Free button but its terms are not stated.
- Expert call services and some data sets, such as the Tegus library, are described as separate offerings.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 1.8 out of 4**, graded Nov 12, 2026. AlphaSense searches filings, broker research and expert transcripts, and has an AI agent on top. But it publishes no prices, nothing is free, and the API and MCP access are only in the Enterprise Suite, so it's a sales-call purchase aimed at big firms.

- **Value for money: C.** No price is published: the pricing page says to contact sales and describes enterprise-wide and per-seat plans with no figures. With nothing to compare against the category's $10 middle, it sits at C.
- **Free plan and trial: F.** Nothing free on record. A Get Started for Free button hints at a trial, but its terms are not stated.
- **Features: C.** Search across a large content set with an AI agent, expert transcripts and Office add-ins. The listing says the API, MCP and internal content search are Enterprise Suite only, and expert calls and some data sets such as Tegus are separate.
- **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record. It's an enterprise platform with content sets and connectors to set up.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web, with PowerPoint and Excel add-ins, plus an API and MCP on the Enterprise Suite.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace AlphaSense you would be making a search engine with an AI model behind it. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 47 of the 49 other AI research tools grade higher.

- You could not: A search engine with an AI model behind it.
- You could not: A library of papers and sources to search.
- You could not: An AI model, which you can rent by the request but not make.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, Microsoft PowerPoint and Microsoft Excel among them, and has an API.
