Using AlphaSense for Healthcare Market Research Improves Decision-Making with Actionable Insights

For those in the healthcare industry, maintaining a competitive edge requires staying aware of regulatory activities and FDA drug approvals. You need to be the first to know when a competitor’s drug is approved, and you need to stay ahead of clinical trial pipelines, disease landscapes, BD&L, and commercialization decisions.

But regulatory sites are often notoriously tedious and time-consuming to navigate, leaving research teams combing through pages and pages of data and spending more time on manual search than on analysis and strategy.

Leading healthcare companies are turning to AI to help them filter through the noise, inform more confident decision-making, and share market intelligence with their broader organizations.

Our platform not only houses every piece of content you need to make rapid data-driven decisions, but it helps you filter through the noise with advanced search functionality.

Generative Search

Generative Search is a conversational search experience that allows users to ask natural-language questions and source intelligence at scale from across premium external content, internal knowledge, and quantitative data sources. Each answer provides citations to the exact snippet of text from where the information was sourced, so that it can always be referenced back.

With Deep Research mode, users can automate the creation of in-depth analysis about companies, trends, or industry topics. The model conducts dozens of searches, parses through thousands of potentially relevant results, and reasons over all of it to produce comprehensive, detailed analysis about any topic — in a fraction of the time it would take a human.

Generative Grid

Generative Grid applies multiple genAI prompts to many documents at the same time to quickly provide organized answers to research questions at scale, in an easy-to-read table format. This enables clients to summarize documents using pre-built criteria to save time when executing repeatable workflows.

Smart Summaries

Every earnings transcript in AlphaSense features an AI-generated Smart Summary, which creates a tearsheet of key takeaways, analyst Q&A, and the most critical topics discussed in each call. AlphaSense users leverage Smart Summaries during earnings season to extract the most crucial insights from each call in just minutes, ensuring a comprehensive and timely view of key insights.

Semantic Search

Instead of digging through fragmented reports and alerts, you can rely on our semantic search to make sure you never miss out on critical insights. Our AI search technology automatically recognizes what you are looking for and delivers the results that match the intent behind your query. This means you don’t have to do multiple searches to get the results you need, and you can be more confident in the comprehensiveness and accuracy of your research.

Sentiment Analysis

Our sentiment analysis and natural language processing (NLP) technology analyzes how the market feels about a given company, industry, or topic and color-codes positive and negative sentiment for easy recognition as you browse documents and search results. These AI features are all executed in seconds, saving analysts hours previously spent combing through broker research reports (often 20+ pages or more) and other complex research unique to the healthcare industry (for example, clinical trial results) for the best insights.

What is the difference between primary and secondary healthcare market research?

Primary healthcare market research involves communicating directly with existing and potential patients. The goal is to learn about your company’s target audience and perform market segmentation. Primary research methodologies include market research surveys, in-person interviews, and focus groups.

Secondary research involves gathering existing data from different sources, including competitors’ company documents, regulatory websites, and broker reports. The goals are to gather key insights to develop a winning corporate strategy, conduct competitive research, or better understand the market and investment landscape.

How does AI impact healthcare market research?

AI algorithms are capable of analyzing large amounts of data from various sources and identifying trends and patterns that would be difficult for humans to detect. Additionally, NLP technology can extract insights from unstructured data sources, research reports, company filings, and earnings calls, helping you make better, more informed business decisions.

AI helps improve the efficiency of market research by reducing the time and cost of conducting research and increasing the accuracy of data collection and analysis.

From a process improvement standpoint, AI can also be used to reliably predict future market trends and healthcare outcomes based on past observations. It can also be used to personalize customers’ healthcare experiences by coding individual data and preferences, thereby increasing patient satisfaction.

Can I share AlphaSense’s AI-generated summaries and insights with my team?

Yes, AlphaSense is built to support all your productivity and knowledge sharing workflows end-to-end.

When you highlight any passage in a Smart Summary or research report, you can easily save it to a Notebook and then grant access to individual teammates or larger groups with AlphaSense accounts. All annotations can be made visible to any team member you share with.

You can also save your AI search query (in Generative Search or Keyword Search) and share the saved search link with licensed colleagues.

To share insights with non-licensed team members, you can export any AI summary, Deep Research report, or document view as a PDF, or you can download and then email or upload to shared drives.

AlphaSense exports preserve line-by-line citations so teammates can trace every AI statement back to source transcripts or filings, sustaining report credibility.

How current is the regulatory and clinical trial data in AlphaSense?

AlphaSense offers real-time or near-real-time updates on most sources, and all users can set up real-time alerts to be notified whenever new documents are posted. Regulatory filings and legal content is generally available within a few hours to a few days of public release.

Clinical-trial data, however, is not guaranteed to be current, especially for regional or early-phase studies absent from company disclosures. The timeliness of this data depends on appearance in secondary sources.

AlphaSense allows you to save precious time by aggregating all sources in one place and alerting you when new insights become available, while also providing valuable context and a 360 degree view that other platforms miss. Organizations that rely on exhaustive clinical-development intelligence should pair AlphaSense searches with dedicated trial-database subscriptions while continuing to leverage the platform’s strength in timely regulatory monitoring.
