Bloomberg, FactSet, Capital IQ, LSEG and AlphaSense are very good at what they do, and most of our customers keep them. LyraMind answers a question none of them is built to answer.
| The question | Where you'd go today | LyraMind |
|---|---|---|
| What is the price, right now? | Bloomberg, LSEG | Not our job |
| What did management say about capex? | AlphaSense, LSEG | Use what you have |
| What are the comparable transactions? | Capital IQ, PitchBook | Use what you have |
| What is the normalized financial history? | FactSet, Capital IQ | Use what you have |
| Why do we own this? | A memo somebody wrote once | Live, named assumptions |
| Are those reasons still true? | Nowhere | Continuously monitored |
| Which of our positions share a belief? | Nowhere | Belief Graph |
| What did we believe before the outcome? | Nowhere | Immutable record |
| What do we systematically get wrong? | Nowhere | Outcome learning |
AlphaSense has a decade of licensing and hundreds of millions of documents. Capital IQ has a private-company estate nobody is going to replicate. Attempting either would consume enormous capital to arrive second.
So LyraMind licenses enough public and market data to be independently useful, and otherwise works with the entitlements you already pay for. If your firm has FactSet, we would rather make that data useful inside your decision record than ask you to replace it.
