Where and how do you source your data?

We go beyond tracking news, also monitoring controversies related to approximately 2 million global private and public companies. Our global news and controversies monitoring is conducted through extensive web crawling, covering a vast collection of over 236,000 sources. This includes utilizing our carefully curated repository of more than 36,000 RSS-type news sources. Additionally, we have established partnerships with over 200,000 trusted third-party news sources. Our sources range from local and international publishers, including industry-specific outlets, NGOs, to industry associations. This comprehensive approach enables us to provide valuable insights to our clients regarding reputational risks and controversies associated with companies and their supply chains across diverse sectors and regions.

What is the cost for your data offering?

Our approach to costing is specifically designed to accommodate the unique needs of each organization, acknowledging the significant variations in scope. We conduct a thorough evaluation of requirements, objectives, risks, and complexity involved in the project. This enables us to provide a customized costing structure that aligns with the client's expectations and budgetary considerations. Factors considered include company coverage, news data labelling, delivery formats (such as product UI, APIs, webhooks), and any additional specialized services or support required.
