A powerful data science accelerator
KPMG Signals utility enables data scientists to quickly and easily build predictive models based on a combination of external signals and your own proprietary internal data.
KPMG Signals utility applies machine learning to identify the key signals that are most strongly correlated with your variable of interest. You can find the signals that best forecast demand for your products or show support for a price increase in a particular market. By creating a “big data fabric” of exogenous and endogenous data, you can find the right data and signals to enable your AI and ML technologies to achieve new levels of accuracy in predictions and business execution outcomes.
A wide range of sources
KPMG Signals utility has data on the US (by state, county and ZIP code), OECD countries, the EU and more. Our data covers a wide variety of topics including local economic and macroeconomic indicators, demographics and population, health and education, quality of life, environment, real estate, cybersecurity, and regulatory and policy data.
A library of resources
KPMG Signals utility offers an archive of models, pipelines, feature engineering code and signals that capture the insights and lessons learned from previous real-world use cases. They can be reused and tailored to find the best predictors of the business outcomes you are interested in.
High-quality, detailed data
The majority of signals are geotagged and at granular geographic levels, enabling you to get the local pulse of an area, understand how it’s changing over time and see the direction it’s heading in the future.
Real-time notifications
Data sets in KPMG Signals utility are continuously updated and monitored. You can set custom alerts to get notified when signals diverge from their expected values or go above or below important thresholds to prepare you for changes on the ground.
