Earnings Calls Just Got Smarter with Google Finance

Google Finance is stepping up its game with a fresh AI-powered update. This isn't just about keeping up with the market; it's about understanding it better. The platform now offers a new way to dive into earnings calls, making it easier to grasp key insights. The update brings live audio, instant transcripts, and AI-driven insights right when they matter most. Users can now see an "upcoming earnings" tab, neatly organized by time frames like "Today, " "Tomorrow, " and "This week. " This makes it simple to keep track of the companies that matter to you. Tapping on a company reveals its last report, including the release date, fiscal period, and revenue compared to estimates. There's also an audio recording of the report, so you can listen in on the details. An intelligent transcript section lets you skim through the call and jump to specific parts with timestamped sections. For those who prefer visuals, there's an option to view the earnings report as presentation slides, if the company provides them. A "previous reports" section helps track growth or decline over time. Additionally, "at a glance" insights gather snippets from news and other sources, giving you quick, digestible information. This update has rolled out to users with the new Google Finance experience in the US, but it seems the reach might be wider.
