Morningstar, Inc., a leading provider of independent investment insights, and PitchBook, a Morningstar company and a leading private capital markets intelligence platform, today announced upcoming Model Context Protocol integrations with Google Cloud's Gemini Enterprise for Financial Services. Together, Morningstar and PitchBook provide a comprehensive view across public and private markets, helping investors securely access intelligence spanning investment research, fund analysis, company data, transactions, and private capital activity directly within Gemini Enterprise.
The integrations will be available for use by eligible Morningstar and PitchBook subscribers, including subscriptions for software products that provide individual MCP integration access, as well as enterprise licensing for clients for MCP use. The MCP integrations coincide with Morningstar and PitchBook joining Google Cloud as launch partners for the preview of Gemini Enterprise for Financial Services, and are expected to be available imminently.
When evaluating investment opportunities, conducting due diligence, monitoring portfolios, researching managers, or analyzing private market activity, professionals increasingly expect trusted intelligence to be available directly within their AI workflows. Through these integrations Morningstar and PitchBook will serve as trusted grounding sources within Gemini Enterprise, helping users access source-attributed investment intelligence while maintaining visibility into the data, research, and analysis behind AI-generated responses.
Morningstar provides independent data, research, ratings, and intelligence across public and private markets, helping investors make confident decisions. PitchBook delivers comprehensive private capital markets data and research powered by its AI + HI methodology, which combines advanced technology with human oversight to source, structure, and validate information at scale.
Eligible subscribers will be able to access Morningstar public market investment data, research, analysis, and intelligence directly within Gemini Enterprise, draw upon PitchBook's private market intelligence on companies, investors, funds, transactions, and market activity, generate source-attributed research and analysis grounded in Morningstar and PitchBook content, and incorporate trusted investment intelligence into AI-powered workflows and agentic experiences without switching between multiple applications.
Artificial intelligence is rapidly becoming part of the investment research process, yet AI systems are only as useful as the information they can access. For investors and financial professionals, that creates a growing need for verifiable investment data, independent research and analysis, source attribution and transparency, and seamless integration into daily workflows.
"Artificial intelligence is transforming how investors and financial professionals discover, evaluate, and act on information. But the value of AI depends on the quality of the information behind it. By bringing independent research and investment intelligence from Morningstar and PitchBook into Gemini Enterprise for Financial Services, we want to help investors access our insights more efficiently, while preserving transparency in the sources behind those answers," said Seth Sprinkle, global head of AI platforms strategy and partnerships for Morningstar.
"The quality of the data grounding AI has never mattered more. We believe our AI + HI methodology, combining advanced AI with human insight, makes PitchBook a trusted grounding source for enterprise AI. Working with Google to bring that intelligence into Gemini Enterprise lets users ask harder questions and receive answers backed by intelligence from Morningstar and PitchBook," said Tom Van Buskirk, executive vice president of Technology and Engineering at PitchBook.
"To deliver real business impact from agentic AI, organizations need seamless access to trusted, domain-specific data. By integrating Morningstar and PitchBook into Gemini Enterprise for Financial Services, we are enabling financial professionals to accelerate investment research and make decisions with confidence," said Satish Thomas, Vice President, Google Cloud.
This announcement builds on broader efforts across Morningstar and PitchBook to make trusted investment intelligence available across leading AI platforms. The Gemini Enterprise integrations extend access to Morningstar and PitchBook connectors for public and private investment data, research, and market intelligence within one of the industry's leading enterprise AI ecosystems.
