Introducing the AI Assistant — Your Smart Research Partner on the CountryRisk.io Insights Platform

At CountryRisk.io, we’re constantly working to make sovereign and country risk analysis faster, smarter, and more intuitive. One of the latest additions to our Insights platform is the AI Assistant — a powerful new feature designed to help analysts, economists, and risk professionals focus on insight rather than manual research.

What Is the AI Assistant? 

The AI Assistant is an intelligent chat interface that connects you directly with the analytical power of the CountryRisk.io ecosystem. Simply type your question — and the AI takes it from there.

You might ask for the latest sovereign risk scores for one or several countries, summaries of recent IMF or World Bank reports, or insights on debt restructuring developments. The Assistant instantly finds, analyzes, and presents the most relevant information in a clear, structured format.

Powered by Specialized Research Tools

Behind the scenes, the AI Assistant is supported by a growing suite of specialized tools that make research seamless:

  • 🔍 Knowledge Base Search – Explore curated research reports and data within your organization or the CountryRisk.io library.
  • 📰 News Research – Get the latest developments from trusted global and local sources.
  • 🌐 Web Research – Enrich your analysis with additional context from the wider web.
  • 📄 PDF Table Extractor – Turn tabular data in PDF reports into clean, ready-to-use CSV files.

You can access these tools directly through the Quick Action button, or let the orchestration engine decide which combination of tools best fits your query.

Streamline Complex Research Tasks

The AI Assistant can also handle multi-step queries that require several tools to work together — for example, pulling data, cross-checking sources, and generating a concise analytical summary.

With the integrated Prompt Library, you can save and reuse your favorite workflows or analysis templates. This enables structured, repeatable analyses in seconds — saving valuable time while ensuring consistency and transparency in your research process.

Work Smarter and Faster 

In short, the AI Assistant helps you:

Get insights instantly — from raw data to complete analytical reports.

Automate complex research — combining multiple data and document sources seamlessly.

Boost efficiency— with predefined or custom prompts for structured workflows.

See It in Action

The AI Assistant is now available on the CountryRisk.io Insights Platform.

If you’d like to see it in action, we’d be happy to walk you through a live demo.
