Drusus for Financial Research
The data and analytical instrument that powers the independent research model.
Independent financial research, whether produced by the buy-side analyst, the sell-side desk under MiFID II unbundling, or the dedicated research boutique, occupies a structurally important position in the financial ecosystem. The economics of the model are exacting: the research producer must offer analytical quality competitive with the bulge bracket, but typically without the data infrastructure budget of a major bank.
Drusus is built, in part, for this audience. It provides the cross-market data, the verified analytical context, and the AI-augmented analyst capability that allow a research operation to produce work of competitive quality without the institutional cost structure.
Capabilities
The Drusus features most relevant to work in this domain.
Cross-market data foundation
HKEX, NYSE, NASDAQ, LSE, and the principal European venues, with proper cross-listing reconciliation and FX adjustment, supporting research that spans geographies.
AI analyst as a force-multiplier
For the analyst whose firm cannot support a research-support team, the AI analyst handles the structural research and context-gathering, freeing the analyst to focus on the differentiated work.
Methodology reference
The Drusus Insights archive and the Methodology documentation set out the analytical apparatus the platform itself uses, providing a benchmark and a reference for the research producer's own work.
Data export for analytical work
Verified data export with provenance metadata, in formats suitable for the modelling work the research process requires.
Where Drusus Fits in the Workflow
Drusus sits at the data-and-analysis layer of the research process, complementing the writer's own thinking rather than replacing it. The Strategist tier at £79 per month is the typical entry point for the individual analyst; the Institution tier at £299 per month per user is appropriate for multi-analyst research operations.
A note on attribution: where the platform's analytical output finds its way into published research, we ask that the platform be cited as the data source and, where applicable, the methodology be referenced. The full guidance is in the Terms of Service.
What This Is Not
Drusus is not itself a research publisher; we do not produce equity research with a buy or sell recommendation. The analytical commentary in Drusus Daily and the AI analyst chat is observational and explanatory, not advisory within the meaning of the regulatory perimeter.
