Data Sources

We adhere to absolute transparency. Every statistic on our platform is traced to the most credible primary source available.

  1. Primary Sources

    The Source of Truth

    The "real reference"—the organization (e.g., Central Banks, ITU, UN) that published the original statistic. The external link icon always points here.

  2. Ingestion Platforms

    The Aggregators

    For scale and performance, we use elite aggregators (e.g., World Bank) to ingest data. We give transparent credit via the info icon.
