Google announced that they’re testing a new AI-powered Google Finance tool. The new tool enables users to ask natural language questions about finance and stocks, get real-time information about financial and cryptocurrency topics, and access new charting tools that visualize the data.
Google’s new financial page has several components that will send traffic to finance-related news and informational websites. AI-generated answers will include links to sites that are relevant to the queries and the news section of the finance page will also link to sources. This could be an opportunity for sites gain traffic related to queries and news.
Three Ways To Access Data
Google’s AI finance page offers three ways to explore financial data:
- Research
- Charting Tools
- Real-Time Data And News

Research
The new finance page enables users to ask natural language questions about finance, including the stock market, and the AI will return comprehensive answers and links to the websites where the relevant answers can be found. What kinds of sites could benefit? It’s possible that this may reward fresh content on trending topics but could also send traffic to content that features analysis of general trends and evergreen topics.
Google explains:
“Now, you can ask detailed questions about the financial world and get a comprehensive AI response, all with easy access to relevant sites on the web. “

Charting Tools
Google’s finance page also features charting tools that enable users to visualize financial data.
According to Google:
“New, powerful charting tools will help you visualize financial data beyond simple asset performance. You can view technical indicators, like moving average envelopes, or adjust the display to see candlestick charts and more.”
Real-Time Data
The new finance page also provides real-time data and tools, enabling users to explore finance news, including cryptocurrency information. This part features a live news feed.
The AI-powered page will roll out over the next few weeks on Google.com/finance/.
