Kensho Technologies

Kensho, an S&P Global company, is a premier AI laboratory specializing in machine learning and natural language processing for the financial sector. Its 2026 technical architecture is centered around the 'Financial Knowledge Graph,' a massive, interconnected data structure that links disparate datasets to S&P Global's master identifiers. The platform excels at processing complex, jargon-heavy financial documents where general-purpose LLMs often falter. By utilizing specialized models like Kensho Scribe (speech-to-text for financial calls) and Kensho NERD (Named Entity Recognition and Disambiguation), the system provides high-fidelity data extraction that maps directly to Capital IQ and GlobalID ecosystems. In the 2026 market, Kensho positions itself as the mission-critical middleware for financial institutions building autonomous AI agents, providing the structured 'ground truth' data required to mitigate hallucinations in RAG-based systems. Its infrastructure is built for massive scalability, supporting high-throughput API demands for the world's largest investment banks and regulatory bodies.
