Open a company. Get a structured brief.
You should not need to read every headline to work out where a company stands. Four agents read the recent coverage and organise it into four short sections on the instrument page.
- Start with the current story, not a wall of headlines.
- Read the bull case and the bear case next to each other.
- Finish on the key risks, then go and check them yourself.

Generic AI writes from whatever it happens to have read. An Openbook brief is tied to one instrument and sits on that instrument's page, beside its Reward and Risk scores.
- Four agents, four sections, one company at a time.
- Read it next to the 8-factor Reward and Risk scores on the same page.
- The bear case gets the same space as the bull case.
What a brief containsAstraZeneca
Current story
Where recent coverage leaves the company today.
Bull case
The argument for the company, set out rather than implied.
Bear case
The argument against, given the same weight as the bull case.
Key risks
What most deserves checking before you act on any of it.
Important: the agents read recent coverage, so a brief can still be incomplete or wrong. For information only. Not investment advice. Capital at risk.
See the company from more than one angle.
Every brief is four short sections, written by four agents reading the same recent coverage.
Bull case
The argument for the company, written out properly instead of left implied.
What has to keep going right.
Bear case
The argument against, given the same space as the bull case rather than a footnote.
What the optimistic reading leaves out.
Key risks
The financial, operational and market risks that most need your own diligence.
Where the case is most likely to break.
On the instrument page
The brief sits with the company's Reward and Risk scores, not off in a separate tool.
One page: the scores and the story together.

Accelerate your judgement. Do not outsource it.
AI can reduce the time spent navigating information, but it cannot remove uncertainty or make the investment decision for you.
- Treat every brief as a research aid, not personal financial advice.
- Verify important numbers, claims and recent developments.
- Return to primary sources and consider your own circumstances.
Responsible research checklistBefore relying on a brief
Check the supporting evidence
Open the relevant company data and confirm the brief matches the underlying figures.
Check how current it is
Recent results, announcements and market developments may change the interpretation.
Form your own conclusion

On an instrument page, four AI agents read the recent coverage on that company and lay out the current story, a bull case, a bear case and the key risks.
From recent coverage of the company, which the agents read rather than write. How much has been published varies from company to company, so briefs vary in depth.
Yes. AI-generated content can contain errors, use outdated information or miss context. Verify material information with primary sources before making financial decisions.
No. AI Insights is an educational research tool, not personal financial advice or a recommendation to buy, sell or hold an investment.
No. AI Briefs are part of Openbook Pro, along with the individual factor scores, the ready-made screens and the full score history. A free account still gets Reward and Risk on every scored company. See the pricing page for the current comparison.
