01 The quarter today
Most IR teams run the quarter across five tools that never share a record
At a typical small or mid cap, the investor list sits in a spreadsheet or a sales CRM that was never meant for funds. Meeting notes live in the IR lead's inbox. The shareholder base arrives as a quarterly PDF from a surveillance vendor. The IR website is maintained by an agency that needs a ticket for every press release, and the filing calendar is a shared Outlook calendar owned by the legal team.
None of these tools knows what the others hold. Before a roadshow, someone copies holdings into a Word template, looks up the last three conversations with each fund, reads the last call transcript for the questions that came up, and sends the CEO a brief late the night before. The same work is rebuilt from scratch next quarter.
An investor relations platform replaces the copying, not the people. Issuers keeps one record per investor and per issuer entity, and every module reads from it. The investor relations CRM feeds the meeting brief, the brief feeds the Regulation FD log, and the log feeds the next brief.
02 Modules
Six modules cover the work an issuer repeats every quarter
Each module is useful alone, and each one gets better because the others exist. The table of contents of a normal IR quarter, in the order the work happens.
Investor CRM and meeting log
Funds, contacts, holdings history and every interaction, with a Regulation FD flag on each entry. Up to 25,000 contacts on the Public plan and 150,000 on Enterprise.
| Fund | Position | Last contact | FD review |
|---|---|---|---|
| Harbor Ridge Capital | 1.84M sh | Sep 18, call | Cleared |
| Calder Point Partners | Not held | Aug 27, meeting | Open |
Meeting briefs
One page before every meeting: who they are, what they hold, what was said last time, likely questions and talking points. 120 briefs a month on Public.
Shareholder base
Ownership snapshots and quarter on quarter changes from 13F and 13D/13G filings, with top buyers, sellers and quiet holders.
Earnings preparation
Script drafted from your results, likely analyst questions from past calls and peers, an approved Q&A library and a call summary.
Disclosure workflow
Filing calendar with owners, announcement drafts, multi-step approvals, material event log and MAR insider lists.
Hosted IR website
News, results, events, governance and documents on your own subdomain, published from the same approval chain, with engagement analytics tied back to known investors.
Included on Public and Enterprise. See the IR website module.
03 Compared
One workspace costs less than the stack it replaces and starts the same day
Large IR suites from Q4, Notified or the former Nasdaq IR Insight are built for large caps and sold through sales cycles, with modules priced separately. A spreadsheet and email cost nothing upfront and a great deal in hours and in risk. The comparison below is how the three approaches differ on the work, not on brand.
| Work | Spreadsheet and email | Legacy IR suite | Issuers |
|---|---|---|---|
| Investor database | Manual, one owner | Included, licensed holdings | Included, public holdings with source on each figure |
| Brief before a meeting | Written by hand | Profile export, edited by hand | Drafted from filings and CRM history, reviewed by you |
| Regulation FD log | None | Partial, meeting notes only | Meetings, calls and outgoing email with flags |
| Disclosure approvals | Email chain | Separate product | Built in, audit trail kept 7 years |
| IR website | Agency tickets | Separate contract | Included on Public and Enterprise |
| How you start | Today | Sales calls, contract | Checkout from the pricing page |
| Price | Staff time | Not published | From $1,499 a month billed yearly for Public |
04 A week of IR
A team of one gets through the earnings week with time left for investors
This is how the week around a results release looks for a single IR lead at a small cap using the platform. Every step reads from the same record, and every draft waits for a human approval.
-
Monday
Script and questions
Copilot drafts the call script from the approved results and lists likely analyst questions from the last four calls and from peer calls.
-
Tuesday
Approvals
The release, the script and the Q&A go through the approval chain: IR, CFO, general counsel. Each decision is logged with time and user.
-
Wednesday
Release and call
The approved release publishes to the IR site. After the call, the summary and new questions go into the Q&A library.
-
Thursday
Callbacks
Briefs for each callback are ready, built from holdings, the last interactions and what changed in the quarter.
-
Friday
Review
Interactions from the week are reviewed for Regulation FD. Follow ups are assigned in the CRM.
The detail behind each step lives on its own page. Script drafting and the question library are covered under earnings call preparation. How the platform reads 13F and 13D/13G filings to show who bought and who sold is covered under shareholder identification.
05 Data and compliance
Every figure shows its source and every investor contact leaves a record
Financials come from your own filings through SEC EDGAR. Holdings come from 13F reports filed by institutional managers each quarter and from Schedule 13D and 13G when a holder crosses five percent. Market prices and peer figures come from licensed data. Each number in a brief or a table carries a chip with the document and its date, so a reviewer can check it in one click.
On the compliance side, the platform is built around Regulation FD in the US and the EU Market Abuse Regulation for issuers listed in Europe. Interactions are logged, outgoing messages that mention unpublished figures are flagged before they go out, announcements need approval, and insider lists under MAR article 18 are kept with the material event they belong to.
Issuers is software for issuers. It is not a broker dealer, placement agent or investment adviser, and it gives no investment advice. Your team decides what is published and sent, and stays responsible for it.
