Distribution is the story here more than the data itself: instead of another terminal plug-in or API tier, Maiden Century is routing its investment forecasts directly into general-purpose LLM interfaces where analysts already live.

Worth watching whether this becomes a distribution norm or stays a one-off marketing hook; either way, it forces buy-side data teams to think about governance for datasets accessed conversationally rather than pulled via structured feeds.
