Why you can trust Smart Summaries

Our AI algorithms are never trained on any data or information that is uploaded into the platform by you - meaning all of your information is always private and never leaves our secure network.

Summaries are drawn directly from a curated collection of source content within the platform (not across the open internet) and we provide direct citation links back to the exact snippets and documents referenced for easy and secure verification.

How can I see Smart Summaries?

Smart Summaries will be automatically generated and shown:

• In a company's transcripts
• In the Search Summary
• On the Company Entity page
• Across an entire Industry

Leveraging Smart Summaries on Transcripts

To surface Smart Summaries for any Earnings Call:

1. Run a search for the topics and/or companies you're interested in
2. Filter for "Event Transcripts"
3. Select an Earnings call from the results
4. In the transcript preview, you'll see a section titled "Summary"

Note: you may need to expand the dropdown

Once you've arrived at the Transcript Smart Summary, you'll be able to view the AI-generated Highlights, Lowlights, and Guidance summaries from the call, as well as a Q&A Highlights.

Positives, Negatives, Outlooks, and Q&A

Select any summary item to be directed to the relevant talking point from the call. In addition, you can verify the statements by selecting the citations appended to each line item.

The Q&A Highlights table will summarize the most relevant questions asked during the call, and consolidate the answer given to each corresponding question. Citations exist on each summary, giving you the confidence of verification and trust.

Leveraging Smart Summaries on the Search Summary

To see Smart Summaries for Search, simply run any search with the Keyword search bar (either independently or combined with a Company & Ticker search)

After running your search, you'll be served with concise, relevant, AI generated summaries across earnings transcripts, broker research, and expert calls. AlphaSense will generate these summaries from the top 100 documents for each content set.

As always, Smart Summary bullets are clickable and take you to the exact snippet within a document, earnings call, or expert call transcript from which the insight was sourced.

Leveraging Smart Summaries on Company Pages

To surface Smart Summaries for Company Pages:

1. Search for a public-traded company by their name or ticker in the Company & Ticker Search Bar
