With events such as earnings calls, capital market days, and investor conferences serving as crucial sources of information for financial analysts, investors, and journalists, professionals are in search of tools that can help them analyze data beyond mere surface-level mentions. Enter Timeline, a feature of Quartr Pro subscribers. For those who wish to delve deeper, this tool allows users to track the frequency of mentions over time for any keyword in company events from 10,000+ public companies. Let's explore some real-life applications and the value this can provide.

Unique Data Analytics

While many platforms offer insights into brand mentions or general company presence, Timeline delves into the specifics. By entering "Generative AI" into the search bar, you can quickly track mentions of what is arguably the most heated buzzword in the capital markets of 2023.

Gauging the Pulse

With Timeline, an analyst or investor can address questions like: Did a particular product line receive more mentions than in previous quarters? Or did the company's strategic direction shift, signaling a change in priority areas? An interesting observation can be made by searching for "buybacks'' to gauge the general trend on this topic. If you're interested in exploring what specific companies communicate on a subject, Quartr Pro's Master Search provides that capability.
