DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Workiva (NYSE:WK), provider of the world’s leading connected reporting and compliance platform, today announced a new partnership with Sentieo, a financial research platform provider, to offer comprehensive document search solutions to support customers' filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

“Our partnership with Sentieo gives our SEC filing customers a powerful research tool at their fingertips, which is essential as pressure grows from investors and regulators to report transparent and accurate data,” said Marty Vanderploeg, CEO of Workiva.

Workiva customers are able to orchestrate data from all of their source systems and applications with a full audit trail, have it update automatically, tag it under XBRL® taxonomy rules and directly submit SEC filings. Workiva customers will now have access to Sentieo’s database of millions of financial documents, which include SEC filings, call transcripts and presentations, as well as unique AI analysis tools, such as Table Explorer and Smart SummaryTM.

“As the largest third-party filer with the SEC, we are always looking for ways to provide our customers with the best technology solutions that reduce risk, increase transparency and create efficiencies,” added Vanderploeg.

Sentieo’s Corporate Research Platform will also enable Workiva customers to apply Sentieo’s AI technology for faster insights into their financial documents. With Sentieo’s natural language processing and advanced linguistic search capabilities, preparers will save time by automating searches, creating repeatable workflows and establishing best-in-class benchmark language for disclosure narratives.

“Every quarter SEC reporting teams spend many hours researching their peers and competitors’ filings and public statements,” said Alap Shah, CEO and Co-founder, Sentieo. “Our partnership with Workiva is designed to save time for filers as they complete their research and ensure they are producing the right language for their filings.”
