Sentieo v3.5

You can now do even more in less time with the Sentieo V3.5 update. With this release, we are very excited to announce the beta releases of some powerful new products that we’ve been working on all year. Additionally, this release includes expanded functionality for Sentieo’s Screener, Notebook, and Document Search, along with incremental improvements across the entire platform. As always, keep the questions, suggestions, and requests coming! Use our Live Support or email us. You can review all previous release notes here.

Below are some of the highlights from this release:

TableX 2.0 (Beta)

We’re very excited to announce the beta release of our new Table Extraction Suite, TableX. TableX 2.0 brings you the future of document table extraction, customizable visualization, accuracy, and sharing. Built using our proprietary machine learning methods, the new TableX is a major advancement in historical table matching in terms of speed, accuracy and layout. The built-in interactive spreadsheets are highly customizable and auditable, saving analysts the hours it normally takes — along with the risk of data entry errors — to input historical financials by hand.

Notebook – Office365 Integration

We’ve partnered with Microsoft to integrate Office Online into the Sentieo Notebook experience. With this integration, any office document uploaded to Sentieo will be visible in an Office-powered viewer. Now you can use Sentieo to store, search and view your models in the cloud!

Sentieo Dashboard (Beta – available upon request)

The reimagined Dashboard has everything that users expect from a homepage: highly customizable price monitors, team activity updates, news and research, and a lot more.

Synonym Library Update + Request a Synonym

We’ve made a substantial addition to our Synonym library (the first of many!) Additionally, users can now request a synonym to be added.

Screener Update

We made sophisticated additions to the screening options, including screening by Time Series —plus a library of pre-built screens to inspire your searches.

Document Search

New

• Request a Synonym – Find a word or phrase that you would like synonyms for. Simply submit them to our team.
• Synonym Update – Significant update to our synonym library that will make your searches more efficient!

Improvements & Fixes

• Improved Keyword Library – You can now search the entire keyword library instead of only being able to search within a category

• Fixed ticker-specific labels – labels that are tagged

Notebook

New

• Thesis collaborative editing: We’ve added collaborative editing, previously available on typed notes, to thesis notes. Collaborative editing takes teamwork to the next level by letting you and your team edit each other’s thesis sheets in real time. See who’s editing the note, and see changes as they happen. Like before, changes save and sync across all of your devices automatically— so everyone viewing the note sees the same content. For a refresher on how collaborative editing works, read more here.
• Office 365 viewer: We’ve partnered with Microsoft to integrate Office Online into the Sentieo Notebook experience. With this integration, users will be able to view PowerPoint, Word, and Excel documents uploaded to Sentieo. Read more here. Users with an active Office 365 Business subscription will have permission to edit files and save changes to Sentieo as well as benefit from Microsoft’s sharing and collaboration features. To get switched on for editing, contact nauman@sentieo.com.
• Note template sharing: Users can now share their note templates with team members. Once created, Visibility can be adjusted to either team or private via the more menu. Read more here.
• Rich text in comments (read-only): Comments originating from email now support formatting such as bolding, italics, lists, and other formatting options, as well as images. In a future release, we will add support for text formatting while typing a comment in Sentieo.
• EOD research summary email reports: The end of day research summary email report is used to track new research added to Notebook across your team or fund. With a daily summary, sift through any new work that has been created in the past 24 hours with quick access to the note title, note type, note category and any related tags and tickers. To enable EOD emails, please contact nauman@sentieo.com

Improvements & Fixes

• Processing of uploaded and attached files: When uploading a new file or attaching a file to an existing note, the file tab now appears instantaneously.

Screener

New

• Template screens: We are introducing in this release the Sentieo Screens and Views Library. These templates leverage the various improvements we have built into Screener, and could be a good starting point to discover the new features and learn how to build your own.

• Sentieo Transcript Sentiment scores and Sentieo Mosaic datasets are now both fully integrated into the Screener, so it is possible to screen by changes in management sentiment or by deterioration in Alexa views over time.
• Price target: We have added the historical time series for Price targets to our Screener; it is now possible to screen by top, bottom mean median, standard deviation and number of contributors, both point in time or using statistics.

• LTM & NTM Options: You can now screen on LTM and NTM values from the income statement, balance sheet, cash flow statement, margins and ratios. The calculation for LTM and NTM numbers is as follows:

• New series types for trading multiples: We’ve added 4 trading multiples series options as time series, based on LTM, NTM, FY1 and FY2 underlying numbers instead of just FY1 previously.
• New currency option: You can now convert all the financial data in the screener to AUD.
• GICS 2018 classification update: We have updated the sector classification to reflect the new GICS 2018 sector classification categories.

• Enhanced visualization
  • Interactive spreadsheet allows for enhanced visualization and analysis of extracted data

    • Show only FY, or only Quarter data, or both, and sort however you like
