How Forrester AI Access Works

Forrester AI Access delivers trusted advice fast for everyone in your organization.

Through this service, you gain advice from a bedrock of proprietary data and insights that you can’t find anywhere else.

Forrester AI Access is available through the Forrester platform and can also be accessed where you work through supported integrations including Microsoft Teams, Microsoft Copilot, and Claude.

The Forrester AI Access Difference

Tools matter, and how you build them matters even more. Forrester AI Access differs from other AI solutions in four important ways to deliver responsible, functional AI for everyone in your organization:

  1. Proprietary Research And Insights. Forrester experts produce proprietary research and insights based on in-depth interviews with practitioners, technology and service provider briefings, and annual data surveys of more than 500,000 respondents that span consumer behavior, customer experience, business buyer trends, and technology.
  2. Industry-Leading. Forrester launched Forrester AI (previously Izola) in 2023, years ahead of industry peers. Now embedded in the Forrester platform and used by thousands of clients, Forrester AI paved the way for Forrester AI Access: the only AI-first research service powered by trusted, proprietary insights and advice.
  3. Actionable. Implement presentation-ready insights and advice instantly, with traceable links back to validated, original sources providing credibility, context, and confidence.
  4. Built For Business. AI Access is optimized to provide succinct advice and concise responses. Use it to create business cases, get strategic advice, summarize reports, track trends, find vendors, and more.

Having strong, accurate data is important, and Forrester is really paramount in that. Their data is easy to find, easy to search, and the results you’re getting back are even better.

Forrester AI Access combines trusted research, data, webinars, and AI-powered discovery to help clients find relevant insights faster. It is designed for professionals looking to explore research, uncover answers, and accelerate decision-making.

What is Forrester AI Access Plus?

Forrester AI Access Plus includes everything available with AI Access and adds four analyst inquiry sessions annually. These 30-minute engagements give clients a direct opportunity to validate ideas, gain expert perspective, and discuss specific business challenges with Forrester analysts, providing a valuable bridge between self-service research and analyst interaction.

How are Forrester AI Access Plus inquiries different from traditional guidance sessions?

Forrester AI Access Plus inquiries answer questions about published research. As such, they are shorter than guidance sessions and provide focused analyst validation and expert perspective on specific topics.

These conversations offer practical advice grounded in Forrester’s research and expertise.

How often can I engage with Forrester through AI Access Plus?

Forrester AI Access Plus includes four analyst inquiries per year, providing occasional opportunities to connect directly with experts as priorities evolve. Clients frequently use inquiries after they review research, attend webinars, evaluate strategies, or prepare for key business decisions. If clients use all four inquiries and would like additional support from an analyst, they can upgrade their license to an unlimited engagement model through Forrester Decisions or Forrester Market Insights, or purchase Advisory strategy days.

Who is Forrester AI Access Plus designed for?

Forrester AI Access Plus is designed for business and technology leaders who want both AI-powered access to research and occasional direct analyst engagement.
