Guidepoint Puts AI-Powered Expert Intelligence in Your Pocket with New App

NEW YORK, NY – February 11, 2026 – In a move set to accelerate the pace of high-stakes business decisions, expert intelligence platform Guidepoint today launched its Guidepoint360 mobile app. The new application extends the company's AI-driven research capabilities to smartphones and tablets, offering institutional investors, consultants, and corporate strategists on-demand access to a vast network of expert knowledge, wherever they are.

The launch signals a significant shift in the expert network industry, a burgeoning market projected to exceed $4.4 billion in 2025, by moving complex research workflows from the desktop to the pocket. For professionals who operate under immense pressure and tight deadlines, the app promises to deliver institutional-grade intelligence in hours, not days.

Redefining Research on the Move

The core value proposition of the Guidepoint360 app is its focus on mobility and speed, designed for a new generation of executives who are rarely tethered to a desk. Whether preparing for an impromptu client meeting, conducting due diligence on the road, or brainstorming during a commute, users can now initiate research, monitor active projects, and synthesize expert insights in real time.

"Capital moves fast. Research has to move faster," said Albert Sebag, CEO of Guidepoint, in a statement accompanying the launch. "Guidepoint360 Mobile meets our clients where work actually happens--on the move, between meetings, and under pressure. It delivers the same rigor, speed, and compliance standards they expect from our platform, now optimized for mobile execution."

This focus on mobile execution addresses a critical pain point in the fast-paced worlds of finance and consulting. The app's interface is designed as an "execution-ready workflow," integrating messaging, scheduling, and project management into a single, streamlined platform. This allows teams to manage multiple research streams simultaneously, a crucial capability during high-volume due diligence or time-sensitive thematic analysis. The goal is to make accessing expert intelligence as seamless as sending a text message, fundamentally changing the cadence of corporate and investment research.

A Hybrid Future: AI Augmenting Human Expertise

Beyond mere mobile access, the app’s most powerful feature may be AskGP, Guidepoint’s proprietary AI assistant. This tool represents a sophisticated step forward in the application of artificial intelligence to knowledge work. Instead of crawling the open internet, AskGP delves into Guidepoint's extensive and exclusive repository of more than 1.75 million expert profiles and their transcribed consultations.

When a user poses a question, the AI synthesizes information and provides direct answers, complete with citations that link back to the specific expert transcript. This function is critical; it provides not just an answer, but a verifiable and credible source, a stark contrast to the often-opaque workings of general large language models. This "cited synthesis" allows users to trust the information and dig deeper into the source material if needed, maintaining a high standard of analytical rigor.

This hybrid approach—combining the breadth of a global human expert network with the precision of AI—is at the forefront of the evolving expert network industry. While competitors have also begun integrating AI, Guidepoint's client-facing application focuses on synthesizing the proprietary knowledge generated by its network. This model doesn't seek to replace human experts but to augment their value, making their collective wisdom more accessible and digestible than ever before.

Navigating a Competitive and Regulated Landscape

Guidepoint's mobile-first, AI-driven strategy enters a fiercely competitive market. The expert network industry, dominated by players like GLG, AlphaSights, and Third Bridge, is built on connecting clients with precisely the right expertise. Competitors have also made inroads into mobile and AI. Third Bridge offers a client app focused on accessing its library of interview transcripts, while GLG has launched an app for its experts to manage their engagements.

However, Guidepoint360’s combination of a client-facing workflow, real-time project management, and an AI synthesis engine in a single mobile package appears to be a unique and aggressive move to differentiate itself. The app is not just a content portal but a comprehensive research command center.

Crucially, the app was built with "enterprise-grade compliance" at its core. For clients in heavily regulated sectors like finance, this is non-negotiable. Delivering sensitive, potentially market-moving information to a mobile device introduces significant security challenges. Guidepoint asserts that its mobile platform inherits the same customizable compliance controls and data protection standards as its core desktop service. This includes protocols for data encryption, secure access, and adherence to global privacy regulations like GDPR and CCPA, which are essential for gaining the trust of institutional clients and their compliance officers.

The Bet on Compounding Insight

Ultimately, the launch of the Guidepoint360 app represents a long-term strategic bet on how professional research will be conducted in the future. By integrating research, communication, and project management into a single mobile workflow, the company aims to embed its platform into the daily fabric of its clients' operations.

The press release hints at a larger vision: a system where "every call, transcript, and interaction feeds a growing intelligence layer." This suggests a platform designed to compound insight over time, becoming more valuable with each project. As an organization uses the platform, the accumulated data and AI-driven synthesis can create a unique, proprietary knowledge base tailored to their specific interests and history. This creates a powerful network effect, not just across the expert base, but within each client organization.

With the Guidepoint360 app now available on the Apple App Store and Google Play, the market will soon decide if the promise of AI-powered, on-the-go expert intelligence can truly transform the speed and quality of high-stakes decision-making.
