Daniel Lord, Founder, Content Catalyst
Subscribers are already using AI assistants to work with the research they license. Gateway Catalyst means that happens on the analyst firm’s terms. Each request is checked against the licence the subscriber’s organisation holds, so users reach only the research they have access to and any change to those terms applies immediately.
Gateway Catalyst is built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP), the open standard AI assistants use to reach outside content, so it works across assistants rather than being tied to one vendor. Access is resolved for each query against the analyst firm’s existing subscription terms, so the same licences apply whether a subscriber is using the analyst firm’s own platform or an AI assistant. Gateway Catalyst runs alongside the analyst firm’s Content Catalyst platform and is available now as an additional service.
Commenting on the launch, Daniel Lord, Founder of Content Catalyst, said: “Analyst firms aren’t deciding whether their subscribers use AI on their research; that has been decided for them. The question is whether it happens somewhere they can see, on terms they set. Gartner has built AskGartner and IDC has launched Quanta, but most analyst firms don’t have engineering teams on that scale. Mid-size and specialist firms shouldn’t have to become software companies to hold the same position, and that is what we deliver every day for our clients.”
