As the first IR Ops Platform, Q4 is eliminating piecemeal IR solutions by utilizing secure AI to create smart workflows that remove tedious administrative tasks that, if mishandled, could significantly impact Investor Relations Officers (“IROs”) and the organization. By leveraging AI, Q4 ensures accurate and efficient completion of these tasks, equipping IR teams with the capacity to focus on their strategic priorities. Gone are the days of disjointed solutions that lack interoperability, each with their tech that leaves IR leaders with incomplete and disconnected data. With a customizable interface based on the world’s largest set of proprietary investor data, everything an IR team needs is now available on a single platform, maximized for efficiency through AI integration.

“Our extensive experience in IR, including our time as a public company, allows us to fully understand the challenges of investor relations and how to overcome them,” said Darrell Heaps, Founder and CEO of Q4. “The IR Ops Platform was purposefully and securely built as an all-in-one solution with AI at the forefront so IR teams can be more efficient, effective, and ultimately help drive premium valuations for their companies.”

The future of IR is here with AI Earnings Co-Pilot, providing AI accelerated earnings preparation by generating tailored first drafts of earnings scripts from past press releases and earnings results without data privacy or security concerns, saving tens of hours of management time during earnings preparation. IROs can unlock new levels of insights from their IR program with the AI Performance Dashboard experience through key peer insights now aggregated in one centralized location, including succinct earnings transcript summaries, news highlights, and stock movements.

Connected data that unifies piecemeal IR solutions provides leading indicators and insights around potential investors, current shareholders, and circling activists so IR teams can take confident action and connect with quality investors. IROs are able to instantly identify recurring participants across their earnings events with unparalleled access to analytics, unveiling new opportunities for engagement and targeted outreach. With simplified earnings lifecycle management, website updates are published 16 times faster than competitors and events boast a 99% platform reliability rate, creating a trusted and intelligent digital destination for investors.

“By creating a single, powerful platform for investor relations, we are increasing the value we provide to our issuer and agency clients, enabling them to successfully implement their IR strategies with unprecedented speed and precision,” remarked Heaps. “We’re proud to be at the forefront of innovation in the IR space and we’re committed to helping IROs thrive.”

As of April 16, 2024, Q4’s IR Ops Platform is available to all Q4 customers and prospects. To learn more or request a demo, please visit www.q4inc.com.
