Nowcasting Methodology

Understand how our Bayesian dynamic factor and machine learning ensemble transforms noisy, asynchronous inputs into stable, timely estimates, handling missing data, publication lags, and outliers, with transparent diagnostics that enhance confidence in both direction and magnitude of growth signals.

Model Architecture

We combine a state-space backbone with targeted ML learners to capture cyclical and structural patterns, seasonality, and regime shifts. Feature engineering emphasizes timeliness and predictive stability, while cross-series constraints preserve macro consistency across GDP components, labor conditions, prices, and financial accelerators.

Revision Policy

Because high-frequency data arrive unevenly, estimates are updated on a strict schedule that distinguishes routine revisions from methodology changes. We publish revision magnitudes, reasons, and data lineage, allowing users to gauge confidence, flag transitory noise, and communicate update cadence to stakeholders clearly.

Benchmarking and Backtesting

Our models are backtested against multiple vintages of official statistics, recession dating references, and alternative datasets. We report directional accuracy, turning-point detection lead times, and error distributions by regime, supporting realistic expectations on performance, uncertainty, and scenario-sensitive interpretation.

Interactive Dashboards

Engage with dynamic, filterable dashboards that reveal drivers, cross-sections, and time horizons in a few clicks, transforming complex macro data into intuitive narratives tailored to executive, analyst, and operational audiences without sacrificing methodological transparency or depth.

Personalized Views

Build role-based views by function, sector, and region to streamline recurring work. Save templates for investment committees, FP&A reviews, or policy briefings, and share interactive links that preserve filters and annotations, ensuring consistent interpretation across teams and meetings.

Explorable Time Series

Zoom from headline trends to component-level drivers with synchronized charts, heatmaps, and decomposition panels. Overlay custom benchmarks, compare cohorts, and export visuals to slides or notebooks, preserving metadata so context and methodology remain visible alongside every chart shared externally.

Alert Tuning

Set sensitivity thresholds, smoothing preferences, and confidence bands to avoid alert fatigue while capturing meaningful changes. Configure channel delivery, escalation paths, and conditional triggers based on combinations of indicators, enabling proactive responses aligned with operational playbooks.

Data Sources and Quality

Rely on a carefully curated blend of alternative feeds and official statistics governed by strict quality controls, privacy safeguards, and provenance tracking, ensuring traceable, compliant, and resilient intelligence throughout fast-moving market and policy environments.

High-Frequency Feeds

We ingest anonymized transactions, mobility, job postings, freight, web-scraped prices, surveys, and financial markets, each normalized for seasonality and sampling shifts. Automated monitors flag schema changes, delays, and anomalies before they distort downstream indicators or trigger misleading alerts.

Official Statistics Harmonization

Our harmonization layer reconciles definitional gaps between alternative signals and national accounts, aligning concepts, vintage timelines, and calendar adjustments. This ensures consistent comparisons, improves mapping to policy targets, and reduces confusion when official releases revise history substantially.

Anomaly Detection and Cleaning

Robust filters identify outliers caused by platform outages, policy shocks, or rare events, applying context-aware corrections with human-in-the-loop reviews for material adjustments. We preserve raw values, flags, and audit trails so users can inspect and replicate every transformation transparently.

Forecast Scenarios and Risks

Translate real-time signals into coherent baseline and alternative paths, quantifying uncertainties and policy sensitivities to support planning, budgeting, and portfolio hedging decisions across multiple horizons.

Baseline and Alternatives

We construct a baseline using current momentum, policy settings, and external shocks, then overlay plausible upside and downside paths with explicit assumptions. Users can adjust elasticities, policy rules, and spillover parameters to test strategic resilience under shifting conditions.

Shock Simulation

Simulate energy spikes, supply-chain disruptions, credit tightening, or fiscal changes, producing dynamic responses in growth, inflation, and employment. See sectoral winners and losers, quantify margins at risk, and translate macro effects into operational thresholds that trigger contingency plans.

Risk Signals

Monitor tail risks using co-movement stress indicators, liquidity metrics, and extremal distributions. We surface early warnings when fragile configurations appear, helping teams recalibrate exposures, renegotiate terms, or delay capex before adverse scenarios materialize in earnings or budgets.

Alerts and Notifications

Receive timely, actionable notifications aligned to your thresholds, governance, and incident response, ensuring critical macro shifts prompt coordinated action rather than fragmented, reactive interpretations.

Threshold Alerts

Configure absolute and relative triggers on key indicators, growth contributions, and probability bands. Combine rules across sectors and regions, and route messages to designated owners with recommended playbooks, links to evidence, and confidence commentary to accelerate decisions.

Event-Driven Briefings

Following major releases or shocks, we issue concise, data-backed summaries that contextualize implications for rates, earnings, and budgets. Briefings include counterfactuals, scenario updates, and talking points for leadership communications and investor relations.

Executive Summaries

Weekly executive summaries distill the signal from noise, highlighting inflections, risks, and opportunities. Visual storylines spotlight what changed, why it matters, and what to watch next, streamlining board and committee agendas with consistent cross-functional framing.
