Interactive Brokers (NASDAQ: IBKR) has unveiled Ask IBKR, a new AI-powered assistant designed to help investors instantly analyze their portfolios using simple, natural language questions.
The feature, now available on IBKR Desktop, Client Portal, and Advisor Portal, allows clients to interact directly with their portfolio data without navigating through multiple screens. Users can ask questions such as “Which sectors am I underweight compared to the S&P 500?” and receive immediate, visualized responses.
“With Ask IBKR, we’re introducing a natural language-based way for investors to interact with their portfolio data,” said Milan Galik, CEO of Interactive Brokers. “Clients can now get complex analytics and insights in seconds, freeing them to focus more on investment strategy and decision-making.”
Ask IBKR is built as an intelligent extension of Interactive Brokers’ PortfolioAnalyst platform — the broker’s comprehensive, free portfolio management tool. It can handle queries across key categories, including portfolio performance, sector allocation, holdings analysis, and account activity. Users can compare returns to benchmarks, explore valuation changes over time, and even review dividend income or cash flows with a single query.
Unlike many generative AI applications, Interactive Brokers says Ask IBKR uses proprietary methods to minimize uncertainty and ensure accuracy. It also includes features such as smart query suggestions and dropdown menus to refine results by benchmark, timeframe, or account.
Future updates will expand the tool’s functionality to include fundamentals data, corporate actions, tax lot details, and statement reporting.
With Ask IBKR, Interactive Brokers continues to enhance its reputation as one of the most technologically advanced global brokers, giving investors faster, smarter ways to understand and manage their portfolios.
