Celent has launched a new client platform that brings together its research, expert advisory services, proprietary data, tools, and an embedded AI assistant into a single environment. The platform is designed to help financial institutions access actionable insights more easily, make faster technology decisions in response to the swiftly changing business landscape, says the leading research and advisory firm. 
Built around four core pillars, the platform features:

  • Industry research: Insights focused exclusively on how technology is reshaping the financial services industry
  • Expert advisory: Direct access to Celent’s team of industry experts for validation, benchmarking, executive briefings, and strategic alignment.
  • Tools & Frameworks: Celent-specific tools, including newly launched capabilities and refreshed assets, designed to help institutions translate insight into action.
  • AVA, the Agentic AI Assistant: A purpose-built AI research analyst developed by GlobalData, designed to act as an active member of a professional team rather than just a chatbot. It enables clients to search, synthesize, and interact with Celent research in real time.

Juan Mazzini, Global Head of Celent, said: “Financial institutions are operating in an environment of constant change and need intelligence they can act on quickly. Celent’s new platform brings together our research, expert advisory, proprietary data, tools, and the AVA AI assistant in a single integrated experience, enabling clients to move from insight to decision quickly with greater confidence.
