Stay on the Terminal if…
You need real-time market data, news, trading, the chat network, or cross-asset and global-instrument coverage. AnalystBook doesn't replace those, and isn't trying to.
Bloomberg Terminal alternative
An AI alternative to the Terminal.
For fundamental company research.
The Bloomberg Terminal does everything — real-time market data, news, trading, chat. AnalystBook doesn't replace all of that. It replaces the part fundamental investors actually live in: reading filings, financials, forensic signals, and building a thesis, with grounded AI, from $69/month. Here's an honest look at where each one wins.

The difference
AI Intelligence you can verify.
AnalystBook's Intelligence brief reads the official filing and writes the analysis in plain language, grounded in the source. The numbers are computed, not generated, so the same filing always returns the same answer, and every claim links to the paragraph it came from. And you can ask Ana, our in-app AI research analyst, anything about a company: she answers from AnalystBook's own structured, industry-aware data — the source-linked filings we normalize for every public company — citing every claim and declining whatever she can't ground. Because we structure and own that data, she reasons over clean, comparable facts, not loose document text. Like any AI it can still make mistakes — which is exactly why every claim links back to the source for you to verify. Intelligence you can verify, not a chatbot you second-guess.

FAQ
Common questions.
Is AnalystBook a real Bloomberg Terminal alternative?
For fundamental company research, yes — reading filings, financials, forensic signals, and building a thesis. It does not replace the Terminal's real-time market data, news, trading, or chat network. If those are core to your job, keep the Terminal; if your day is spent reading the filing and forming a view, AnalystBook covers that slice for a fraction of the cost.
How much cheaper is AnalystBook than a Bloomberg Terminal?
A Bloomberg Terminal runs around $30,000 per user per year. AnalystBook is $69/month — about $690/year — with a 14-day free trial, self-serve, and cancel-anytime. It's a focused fundamental-research tool, not a full-market terminal, which is how it stays that affordable.
What is Ana, AnalystBook's AI analyst?
Ana is AnalystBook's in-app AI research analyst. Ask her anything about a company and she answers only from AnalystBook's own structured data — the official filings we normalize and index, industry-aware, for every public company — citing every claim. She doesn't use the open web or outside knowledge and gives no buy, sell, or hold verdicts, and she's designed to decline whatever she can't ground. Because we own and structure that data, Ana reasons over clean, comparable facts, not loose document text. Like any AI she isn't infallible, so every claim links back to the filing for you to verify. For research only; not investment advice.
What does AnalystBook do that a Terminal doesn't make easy?
It reads the filing for you: a grounded AI Intelligence brief and Ana for ask-anything Q&A, sector-calibrated Altman Z and Beneish M forensic scores ready on every company, every number source-linked to the exact paragraph, and a research workspace that remembers your thesis. The Terminal has the data; AnalystBook turns the filings into a structured, verifiable view.
