Black Swan Data is a Mintel company. We leverage AI to analyze what millions of people are actively discussing online, helping consumer focussed companies better understand and scientifically predict consumer behavior. While many market research providers still rely on limited consumer input from surveys, interviews, and focus groups, Black Swan uncovers what consumers are talking about organically, on a much larger scale. Trendscope, Black Swan’s AI-powered platform, cleans, connects, and structures this data, making it easy for brands to identify new growth opportunities and predict which trends will sustain into the future. This data empowers users to make more confident, evidence-driven decisions and deliver bolder marketing and innovation strategies. Since 2011, we’ve placed our nests in the UK, USA, Hungary, and South Africa. We’re data scientists, developers, insights consultants, analysts, engineers, and marketeers. But first, we’re entrepreneurs, driven by disrupting the outdated market research industry. We believe in moving fast and breaking new ground. Using the most sophisticated data science and AI techniques around, our game-changing products and solutions are helping global companies answer tough questions.
