Unlock Insights Faster with AI Chat

Financial professionals must sift through vast amounts of data to uncover meaningful insights, often juggling multiple tools, dense reports, and a constant stream of market news. According to the YCharts 2024 user feedback survey, 80% of advisors expressed interest in using AI to enhance their workflow—whether for analyzing financial data, extracting insights from SEC filings, or comparing investment products. These time-consuming tasks delay decision-making and shift focus away from high-value activities—identifying opportunities, advising clients, and refining investment strategies. As one advisor put it, “Time is our biggest commodity, so anything that gives time back to me is beneficial.”

AI Chat solves this challenge by delivering instant insights from YCharts data, SEC filings, and financial news. A simple prompt returns clear, data-driven answers, helping financial professionals work more efficiently.

Recognized as a top performer in the T3/Inside Information Software Survey for “Investment Data/Analytics Tools” and “Economic Analysis & Stress Testing Tools,” YCharts continues to develop solutions that improve advisor efficiency and streamline investment research.

Smarter Investment Research, Powered by AI

AI Chat streamlines research by delivering real-time access to key financial data. By instantly retrieving historical trends, market updates, and company fundamentals, AI Chat reduces the need to manually search multiple sources. AI Chat generates tables, charts, and stock screens in seconds, freeing up time for financial professionals to focus on analysis and strategy. From there, AI Chat links directly to other tools, allowing for seamless refinement and deeper analysis. You can adjust chart settings, apply additional filters in screens, or explore a security’s historical performance in greater detail.

Enhance Research & Market Analysis

Seamlessly integrated with YCharts data, AI Chat helps advisors and asset managers analyze securities, compare investments, and track market trends. Instead of manually compiling financial data, financial professionals can generate key insights with a simple query.

For example, ask:

“Build a chart comparing Apple (AAPL), Google (GOOGL), and Amazon (AMZN)’s performance over the last five years.”
A linked Fundamental Chart is generated, making it easy to analyze trends and adjust settings directly in YCharts for deeper evaluation.

Looking to compare fund metrics? Quickly surface key differences:

“Compare key metrics for RMDUX, NSTLX, and PIMIX.”
AI Chat provides a structured breakdown of key metrics—Net Expense Ratio, 30-Day SEC Yield, Dividend Yield, and Credit Quality—helping professionals compare funds at a glance. For further analysis, view the Comparison Table.

For screening, quickly identify securities that meet specific criteria:

AI Chat delivers a pre-filtered list, which you can open directly in Stock Screener to refine further, add filters, or compare securities more effectively.
