About Us

In an age where Data is the new Oil, India is a remarkably Data poor country. On one hand, India does not produce many of the data sets that citizens of developed countries take for granted and on the other hand, there are issues over quality and timeliness of the data. These are fundamental problems. But there is also the problem of accessing data. The data that is available is in most cases not available in a single place and where it is, it is available in a very user-unfriendly format. And often it resides behind expensive paywalls which means its availability is restricted to a privileged few.

We are passionately working towards addressing the problem of accessebility of data. We already cover more than 30,000 time series data for India and the States of India. All the data on this platform has been sourced directly from primary sources such as the various ministries of the Government of India or the RBI or in case of Global data from organisations like the World Bank or the World Trade Organisation or the Bank for International Settlements. The data is cleaned before it goes live on the platform. We take great pains to ensure data accuracy because that is critical to what we aspire to do.

However more than coverage of data, our focus will be on making our platform highly interactive which means building tools that will facilitate making meaningful comparisons and analysis of the data. Our Apps and Dashboards are tools towards that end – to help you gain insights into data. Our analytical engine is highly interactive allowing you to compare data across regions and indicators, transform data and run analytics. All with the help of just a few clicks. We hope that eventually, this platform will be more than just about the passive consumption of data. There are new tools and features will follow! Stay tuned…
