About Kensho Technologies

Kensho is an AI analytics platform owned by S&P Global that uses machine learning and NLP to help financial professionals understand how global events, economic data, and corporate actions affect markets, industries, and securities. The platform's flagship Kensho Link product extracts and links entities, events, and relationships from millions of financial documents, earnings transcripts, and news sources to build a structured knowledge graph of the global financial system that analysts can query for deep, contextualized intelligence. Kensho NERD (Named Entity Recognition and Disambiguation) processes financial text at scale to classify and link entities across S&P Global's vast data universe. Major investment banks, asset managers, and financial data providers use Kensho to accelerate research workflows, build quantitative signals from unstructured text, and automate the extraction of financially relevant information from document-heavy processes.
