From hours to minutes: How AskISI is changing the way teams research

Research used to mean time, time spent opening reports, cross-checking news articles, and piecing together data from a dozen sources before a single insight could be shared with confidence. AskISI, EMIS’s AI research assistant, is changing that equation.

AskISI lets users converse with EMIS’ 2.7M+ research reports, 40M+ news articles, and company filings, all in one place. The result, according to the teams using it, isn’t just faster research, it’s research they trust quicker.

Accelerate research speed

The most immediate impact clients report is speed. Tasks that used to take hours, or even days, are now measured in minutes.

“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 synthesize 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.” – Filipe Mesquita, Market Intelligence Coordinator, Tigre

Deliver trusted intelligence

Speed only matters if the answers hold up and this is where AskISI’s grounding in EMIS’s proprietary, curated and licensed content makes the difference. Every answer comes with a reference back to its source. What sets AskISI apart isn’t just the AI, it’s the intelligence behind it.

“AskISI’s ability to automatically source data and build tables is incredible, it consistently delivers the results we expect. I trust AskISI 100%, far more than any external tools or AI solutions I’ve used. It has completely changed the game for us, particularly how we conduct research.” – Strategic marketing planning and insights specialist, Global manufacturing and engineering company,

A tool built for market intelligence

Beyond speed and trust, users highlight how well AskISI fits into the way market and research teams actually work, supporting planning, monitoring, and deep-dive analysis alike.

“AskISI is an extremely valuable tool for market planning and monitoring, providing rapid access to information available within EMIS and enabling users to efficiently identify relevant content. I’d rate it 10 out of 10 — the high quality of its responses and the inclusion of references adds real credibility while supporting deeper research.” – Data & Analytics Manager, Multinational medical technology company
