Where and how do you source your data?

Clarity AI sources data from a wide range of channels to ensure comprehensive and high-quality sustainability insights. These include direct disclosures from companies, reference data providers, third-party datasets, regulatory filings, news sources, academic research, and asset allocation data.

To go beyond traditional data collection, we leverage proprietary AI and machine learning technologies that enhance both data quantity and quality. Our advanced natural language processing (NLP) techniques extract both quantitative and qualitative information from corporate reports and regulatory documents with high accuracy. We also deploy machine learning classifiers to process and monitor hundreds of thousands of news articles daily, flagging controversies and other sustainability-relevant events across thousands of companies.

Accuracy and validation are core to our process. We use a human-in-the-loop validation system: a consensus mechanism ensures that our models align with human-collected values before shifting to full automation. In parallel, our reliability algorithms detect anomalies and outliers by evaluating values against historical and industry norms. This multi-layered approach enables us to maintain an accuracy rate exceeding 99%.

When data is not publicly reported, especially for private companies, we use proprietary estimation models to fill in the gaps. These models incorporate domain expertise, industry benchmarks, and company-specific attributes to generate reliable estimates for key sustainability metrics.

We are also committed to transparency and continuous improvement. Our platform allows users to trace every data point back to its source and methodology. 

What is the cost for your data offering?

Our pricing models are designed for maximum flexibility, tailored to meet the diverse needs of our clients. We prioritise a client-centric approach, ensuring that they pay solely for the services they need, avoiding the constraints of pre-packaged offerings.
