“At BOND, we look for iconic technology companies that are shaping the future,” said Jay Simons, General Partner at BOND. “With the ability to deliver the right insights and data to help businesses confidently make the everyday, strategic decisions that ultimately define their future, AlphaSense immediately struck us as a category creator emerging into one of those iconic companies that significantly advances how the business world works.”

The $150 million raise comes just months after a $100 million Series D investment led by Alphabet’s CapitalG. The new capital will be used to expand AlphaSense’s enterprise solution, deploying its market-leading AI search capabilities, purpose-built market intelligence and financial LLMs, and GenAI capabilities—all within customers’ private clouds. This expanded product offering empowers professionals to monitor and extract critical insights from internal and external content through secure, accurate, and best-in-class AI-powered search, summarization, and chat capabilities.

BAM Elevate, the dedicated private investment team at Balyasny Asset Management, L.P. (BAM), has been a client of AlphaSense since 2015, and is a new investor in this round. Norman Chen, Partner at BAM Elevate, commented, “Today, we have over 150 investment professionals leveraging the AlphaSense platform to get insights and data points more rapidly and reliably. From our perspective, AlphaSense’s AI and search technology has been incredibly powerful at surfacing the right information to help enhance our investment process at BAM – which is also why we invested in this latest round. We wholeheartedly believe in AlphaSense’s growth and distinctive position in the industry and want to be an even greater part of its journey.”
