AyeWatch detects meaningful changes across billions of web sources and only alerts you when it matters.
Earnings calls move stocks. Not the headline EPS number — the transcript. The CFO's exact phrasing around gross margin guidance. The CEO hedging on the international outlook. The analyst question about channel inventory that management ducked. These signals appear in call transcripts within minutes of the call ending, and the window between transcript publication and market pricing is measured in minutes, not hours.
What Earnings Call Monitoring Covers
A well-configured earnings alert system catches:
- Transcript publication: Knowing the moment a full transcript is indexed on Seeking Alpha, Motley Fool, or the company's IR page.
- Guidance language changes: When a company shifts from "we expect" to "we anticipate challenges" — semantic changes that keyword tools miss.
- Executive commentary on key metrics: Specific mentions of inventory, churn, NRR, CAC, backlog — the metrics that matter by sector.
- Post-call analyst summaries: The first research notes that appear in the hours after a call close.
How to Set Up Earnings Monitoring in AyeWatch
The most effective approach is two-layer monitoring:
Layer 1 — Company-specific topics. Create a topic for each company you follow: "Q2 2026 earnings results and management commentary for [company]." Set to hourly around the earnings date. AyeWatch monitors news coverage, transcript sites, and SEC filings and alerts you when something materialises.
Layer 2 — Sector topics. Create a broader topic covering your sector: "cloud software earnings results and guidance commentary Q2 2026." This catches coverage of peers that may affect your positions even if you're not explicitly watching every company in the space.

Earnings Whispers and similar sites offer email alerts for earnings dates and post-call surprise summaries. These are useful for knowing when a call is happening. They don't give you continuous transcript monitoring or sector-wide coverage. For investors who act on earnings information, the gap between "I got the date alert" and "I understand what was said" is where the work happens — and where AI monitoring closes the loop.
