Reading the business cycle in real time.
Real-time reads on the state of the economy, built from multimodal data streams. Our models process thousands of articles as they are published and combine them with hard economic indicators to identify business-cycle fluctuations and the narrative that moves them.
Because the story matters, filtering is not without structure and can be decomposed: every movement in the cycle can be traced to demand and supply innovations, and ultimately to the individual articles behind it.
All of this comes together in a live dashboard. When the indicator moves, it shows which narratives moved it and which articles carried them, so a surprise in the data always arrives with an explanation.
