Kensho (S&P Global) announced Adaptive Retrieval, offered with Deterministic Retrieval through the S&P Global AI Data Portal for trusted data across AI and agentic workflows, Kensho said on 21 July 2026.
Market-data parents are packaging retrieval APIs so agents can ground answers in licensed financial datasets. Buyers still need licence terms, latency SLAs and clarity on what leaves the portal boundary.
Kensho remains the directory brand face for S&P Global’s AI engine. Bhavesh Dayalji, head of Kensho Data & Intelligence, framed the release around trusted data for AI-native experiences.
Market-intelligence buyers should demand licence-aware retrieval tests on their workflows — before treating any adaptive retrieval launch as a completed agent data strategy.
