Meet Mo
Mo is a digital research assistant that puts Morningstar’s research just a question away. Drawing from our extensive investment data and research library (including every article published for Morningstar.com), Mo is designed to surface and summarize our independent insights in a conversational format for investors and investment professionals alike. It can do what no human can: read and recall the hundreds of thousands of research reports Morningstar produces, in seconds. Mo does not provide investment advice.
The beta-test version of Mo can be used today in Direct Compass. There is no additional charge to use Mo.
