AlphaSense is redefining channel research.

Instead of static point-in-time reports, AlphaSense channel checks delivers a continuously refreshed view of demand, pricing, and competitive dynamics powered by interviews with real operators, suppliers, distributors, and channel partners across the value chain.

Thousands of consistent channel conversations every month deliver clean, comparable signals, helping investors spot inflection points weeks before they show up in earnings or consensus estimates.

The best part?

These proprietary channel checks integrate directly into AlphaSense's research platform, trusted by 75% of the world's top hedge funds, with access to over 500 million premium sources, from company filings and brokerage research to news, trade journals, and more than 240,000 expert call transcripts.

That context turns raw signal into conviction.

The first to see wins, the rest follow.
