For analysts, its design aids in drilling down the datasets to enhance the accuracy of their insights, and for business executives, the analyzed data presents a holistic perspective of the ways in which external market activities are expected to affect their business processes.”

To supply businesses with large amounts of rich external data, Signals Analytics adopted an outward-facing approach that interprets disparate, external data sources and analyzes them using a central hub with preconfigured, guided-decision models. These models generate insights that can act as an early warning system for instant notifications of real-time marketplace developments. At any given moment, Signals Playbook looks at about 60 million data points, including online posts, product reviews, and patent data.
