Transforming sector and company research with AI
glass.ai is an AI capability that deep reads the web to understand the activities of millions of companies. Our AI reads web content from multiple sources across countries and languages. We build unique datasets for corporates, governments, consulting and market research firms, universities and non-profits.
Delivering business activity intelligence for researchers, consultants, analysts and marketers.
Global scale and depth
Data about the activities of businesses is scattered across many sources on the open web, all containing different parts of a ‘data puzzle’ that researchers and analysts need to piece together. Our AI research capability automates such data collection.
How we can help
Understand sectors, places and supply chains
We help policy analysts, economists and researchers map sectors, supply chains and build detailed pictures of geographical strengths. The AI reads millions of business websites, news, social media and official sources. We can identify businesses in any sector and then go deeper into their activities, growth, interactions and people. So far we have mapped hundreds of emerging sectors in the UK, Europe, North America, Middle East and Asia.
Accelerate your sales and marketing efforts with signals, relevance and context
Go-to-market teams of B2B businesses use our AI capability for ‘lookalikes’ discovery and accounts monitoring on signals of interest. We apply data science to understand the characteristics of clients (previous wins) and then deep crawl the web to find similar companies that have a high probability of conversion. The AI is also used to segment markets and enrich CRMs with account intelligence. We create high-precision data and insights that are not available through sales intelligence tools.
Track millions of firms globally on growth and other indicators
We are continuously deep-crawling the web and have built a rich proprietary dataset on the activities of millions of businesses globally. Our clients use the capability to monitor companies on particular themes or signals that are important to them. These can be innovation or growth signals, evidence of sustainability activities or any other indicators. We can deliver data and insights on any business globally across languages and geographies.
Build targeted sample frames of businesses for primary research
We work with market researchers and consultants who need to develop sample frames of companies and key people. Typically, these are samples that are difficult to build using company databases and the traditional methods used by sample recruiters. A spray-and-pray approach is no longer needed. Our AI deep-reads the web and can identify relevant businesses and people and provide evidence that they meet the needs for inclusion.
