Tile Tags
Our tools and widgets are categorized based on how they can be integrated into brokers' webpages. Widgets like Market Alerts and the original Research Terminal, which have been around for a while, can only be integrated using iframes. However, newer widgets like AnalysisIQ, AssetIQ, and Acuity Research Terminal have been built with React and can be integrated using an HTML embed code. This is our default method of building widgets, so any new widget will also need to be integrated this way.
In addition to these integration methods, we also offer other types of tools such as Emails. While these tools are built with React technology, they cannot be integrated using an HTML embed code. Instead, they typically involve a custom sending process that we develop.
To differentiate between these integration methods, we add a few labels to the widget tiles:
iframe - This label indicates that this widget can only be added using an iframe.
Email - This label indicates that this widget is a newer version, which requires additional steps for successful delivery into a broker's environment.
All the remaining widgets are built using React technology and can be seamlessly integrated into webpages using an HTML embed code.
