We work with data to empower projects that create a positive impact. We believe that the same tools and techniques that drive followers in social media, analyze consumer behavior to boost sales or recommendation systems can be used to improve people’s lives, health, education and the environment.
So, we are developing a wide range of solutions. From systems that monitor the state of a problem in real-time through sensor data to more complex analysis that allows automatic detection of relevant topics in a text or areas in images and videos that can help automate processes or reveal insights otherwise hidden.
These are just some examples of the endless possibilities that data-driven solutions can have to support change-makers.
We believe that adding our team’s experience and knowledge to the organization’s expertise in the field, can boost positive change.
