Material Summaries

Built for Analysts, Not Generic AI

Most generic AI produces polished summaries that read like customized Wikipedia entries. That may work for casual users, but it does little for professional investors. Analysts do not need encyclopedic overviews. They need to know what has changed: new developments in the numbers, in management’s tone, and in commitments to investors. And they need the comfort to know that every insight that every insight ties back directly to its primary source.

Material Summaries are built for this purpose. They deliver clarity on what matters without repeating boilerplate or clutter. Instead of parsing dozens or hundreds of pages, analysts receive a concise, professional-grade summary that highlights information relevant to their investment view.

Key Capabilities

Clarity and Materiality

Analysts need to know what has changed, not read through boilerplate or repetition. Material Summaries cut through repetition and noise to surface what matters. They consolidate information around events such as earnings releases from multiple primary documents (press releases, earnings calls, slide decks, and filings), while removing boilerplate so analysts can focus on substance.

They highlight only developments that evolve an investment view, not a restatement of what is already known. The summaries respect the analyst as an expert: no general knowledge repetition, only performance, outlook, new developments, and tracking of past management commitments.

Assurance and Validation

For professional investors, credibility is critical. A summary is only as valuable as its connection to the primary source. Every Material Summary is grounded in the company’s primary documents, not secondary interpretations. Analysts can always trace an insight back to where it was first disclosed.

Alongside the summary, analysts receive a marked-up version of each primary document. Important passages are highlighted, while boilerplate and repeated text are suppressed. This creates a cleaner, more efficient way to review primary content and makes it faster to validate insights.

This assurance matters when research is reviewed by colleagues, clients, or regulators. With Material Summaries, you can point directly to the primary source, confident that nothing has been added or altered. The result is analysis that is precise, defensible, and trusted.

Speed to Insight

Analysts can bypass lengthy PDFs and dense primary documents and go straight to material insights. Summaries bring the critical information forward so time is spent where it has the most impact: updating views and updating clients.

Always Updated

Analysts can trust that they are working with the most recent information. New primary documents are ingested within seconds and summaries are updated within minutes, ensuring coverage keeps pace during busy periods such as earnings season.

Summaries also evolve across the full update cycle. For example during earnings releases, a first summary is created when the press release is published, updated with the earnings call, and finalized with the filing. This ensures analysis stays aligned with every stage of disclosure.

Adaptable to Your Workflow

The format adjusts to the level of detail and focus analysts need. Generate a multi-page review for a deep dive or a concise set of bullet points for quick reference.

Outputs are exportable to PDF or plain text, easy to copy into notes or emails, and importable into AI Analyst Chat. This makes them simple to use across analyst workflows from internal notes to client-ready commentary.

Why It’s Different

Generic AI tools often produce summaries that read like encyclopedia entries. They may be polished, but they are too general to support investment decisions and often miss the details that matter.

Material Summaries take a different approach. They are knowledge-aware, built to recognize what you already know about a company and to surface only what is new and material. They focus on developments that change the investment view, with highlights shown directly in the primary document so every point can be validated against the source.
