GlobalPulse

Gain instant access to the external, macroeconomic data you need to enrich all your analyses
The KPIs that you care about are impacted by a myriad of events every day. Information about these events is packed into the world’s high-volume, ever-changing data. Traditionally developed models can’t keep up.
So we built GlobalPulse, which has infinite capacity to capture, observe, and update all the external data you need.
GlobalPulse is several things at once:
Nousot’s repository of varied data from the outside world.
It is a cache of both mainstream and alternative data that could have relevance to you now or in the future.
Fuel for our data science platform.
Our models train on GlobalPulse data, and our products come packaged with it.
A standalone product for you to use in your own models.
Via either API or an on-prem version, you can explore GlobalPulse’s thousands of data sets and track our forecasts of where they’re headed.
