ISI, the proprietary data platform for global market intelligence, has launched AskISI, an AI-powered research capability within EMIS, its emerging markets company and industry intelligence research platform.
EMIS has provided company and industry intelligence across emerging markets for over 30 years. That intelligence is now available as a conversational experience with AskISI.
Early users have found AskISI can cut the time needed to prepare a single market report by up to two weeks and reduce data compilation across a set of companies from roughly half an hour to seconds.
“AskISI has transformed the way we conduct research by significantly reducing the time required to gather and analyse information—from 15–20 minutes to as little as 5 minutes. Its ability to synthesise information, provide credible source-backed insights, and deliver fast, targeted answers has greatly improved our team’s efficiency. Most importantly, the information is grounded in actual data, making it highly reliable and helping us avoid the hallucinations often found in other AI tools.
"As we continue to use AskISI, its impact on streamlining and enhancing our research process keeps growing,” said Filipe Mesquita, Market Intelligence Coordinator at Tigre.
“AI is only as valuable as the quality of the intelligence behind it. With AskISI, we’re combining the power of generative AI with three decades of ISI trusted research and market expertise, helping our clients find answers faster while maintaining confidence in the sources behind them,” said Steve Pulley, CEO of ISI Markets.
“AskISI powered by EMIS is designed to accelerate research. Users can now find trusted answers quickly by leveraging EMIS’s rich ecosystem of research reports, news, and company filings, so they can focus on what they do best: making informed decisions and driving results.” said Diego Obere, EMIS MD.
