Our Data Cloud

We set ourselves apart by a multi-faceted approach to creating, curating, and maintaining the Data Cloud. Not only do we source from tens of thousands of public sources, we also have proprietary data only available through Dun & Bradstreet. Add to that data based on activity within the Data Cloud and proprietary analytics – often based on volumes of historical data – and one can quickly see how we can lay claim to offering the most comprehensive business data. For example:

Access to longitudinal curated data is critical for global commerce, and with only a small percentage of the world's businesses filing public financial statements, our data is a trusted source for reliable information about both public and private businesses.
We believe that we are uniquely able to match data to its corresponding entity and have extensive related intellectual property with approximately 100 of our 210 patents dedicated to this function. Our capabilities in matching and identity resolution enable us to make sense of what is a vast universe of data, turning chaos into order, and extending that order to clients.

Data Cloud

We believe that we are the only scale provider to possess both worldwide commercial credit data and comprehensive public record data linked together by a unique identifier allowing for an accurate assessment of public and private businesses globally. With this accurate assessment, clients are able to make data actionable and put it to use for their own competitive advantage.
