Trade is an important aspect of growth for the economy of any country so it is something that governments regularly need to monitor and want to capture inputs from the businesses involved. This is easier for industries where products are being physically shipped abroad, for service industries and sectors where products are being offered remotely (e.g. SaaS or streaming products) this is much more difficult. In partnership with a global market research firm, we have used our AI language understanding capability to read the web for signs of businesses being active in certain countries, for example local employees or offices, customers, press announcements or job ads, to build sample frames of businesses to contact. Together with classifying these businesses within product or services industries, this has enabled a number of surveys to be run for government trade departments to better understand the activity that is taking place.
