Let’s be honest—market research used to be a strength. Now it feels like a chore.
There’s just too much information scattered across too many places. Whether you’re tracking a competitor, scanning industry reports, or building out a company profile, it’s always the same story: search, click, copy, repeat.
That process eats time. Worse, it distracts you from what actually matters—interpreting the data, spotting connections, and sharing insight.
The good news? AI market research is stepping in to fix that.
Why Manual Market Research Is Holding Teams Back
Even today, many teams still rely on old-school methods to gather insights.
That often looks like:
Digging through multiple websites and news portals
Downloading PDFs and scanning for relevant stats
Piecing together timelines and summaries manually
Creating quick-reference decks for leadership
This kind of work is repetitive, draining, and risky—because the more rushed it gets, the more likely key details get missed.
Now imagine replacing all that grunt work with tools that do the sourcing and structuring for you.
Meet the New Era of Market Research
AI-powered tools can now:
Read reports, filings, and transcripts
Answer questions about performance, activity, or context
Generate clean, structured summaries from raw data
Help teams collaborate across departments without friction
Whether you’re in a fast-moving consultancy or a lean credit union team, this kind of support transforms your workflow from cluttered to clear.
Let’s break down how each AI capability helps you skip the busywork—and focus on real insight.
Photon Chat: Ask Questions, Get Instant Answers
Picture this: You’re researching a company ahead of a meeting. You want to know how their revenue has changed, if they’ve launched anything new, or what leadership mentioned last quarter.
Normally, that’s 45 minutes of digging.
But now, you just open Photon Chat, type your questions, and get precise answers pulled straight from the company’s own reports.
This AI assistant understands your documents – earnings summaries, strategy notes, and more, and delivers exactly what you need.
It’s ideal for:
Competitive snapshots
Board prep
Real-time research under deadline
No tab overload. Just clarity, fast.
Skimming Reports? There’s a Smarter Way
Most of the time, you’re just trying to spot a few key things—like what helped drive revenue, if any new products or services were introduced, or whether there were leadership changes worth noting. But getting to that info? It can take forever.
Now, there’s a better way.
Upload the report, ask your question, and the AI gives you a clear, direct answer—no endless scanning or second-guessing.
It’s a game-changer for anyone who deals with long reports regularly—especially financial professionals, consultants, or researchers who need answers fast and with confidence.
Turn Research Notes Into Something Shareable
Gathering insights is just half the job. You still have to communicate them—whether it’s to your client, your boss, or your team.
AI writing tools now help with:
Turning rough research notes into polished updates
Summarizing long reports for presentations
Rewriting technical language into something more accessible
Instead of starting from scratch, you can clean up existing content and reshape it for your audience in minutes—with help from tools like Photon’s Editing Suite.
Because in market research, how you present your insight is just as important as the insight itself.

Creating a company profile used to mean opening five sources, copying data into slides, then double-checking everything.
