Is the Kensho LLM-ready API still available?

Yes, The Kensho LLM-Ready API remains available as part of the S&P Global AI Data Portal and is now known as "Deterministic Retrieval." Existing users can continue to access trusted S&P Global datasets through the API, while new customers can also leverage "Adaptive Retrieval" for more complex research workflows.

What is the difference between Deterministic Retrieval and Adaptive Retrieval?

Deterministic Retrieval provides direct, API-driven access to S&P Global data, returning precise, predictable, source-cited results with full customer control over orchestration and execution. Adaptive Retrieval is designed for more complex and open-ended research. It dynamically searches, routes, and combines information across datasets to answer multi-step questions with cited results.

Which retrieval method should I use?

Use Deterministic Retrieval when you need precise financial data, repeatable results, and direct access to specific datasets. Use Adaptive Retrieval when your question spans multiple datasets, requires deeper research, or benefits from dynamic retrieval and built-in orchestration.

What is Model Context Protocol (MCP)?

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that enables AI applications and agents to connect to external tools and data sources. S&P Global provides MCP connectivity so customers can access trusted financial data within AI applications without building custom integrations.

Are responses cited and auditable?
