Data Quality Standards
Not all data is created equal. Here's how we ensure quality.
Novare combines multiple public and proprietary sources into a unified evidence layer. The specific weighting, reconciliation logic, and scoring algorithms are proprietary. We disclose what we use, not how we combine it.
Source verification
Every data source is vetted for reliability. Authoritative sources carry more weight than secondary sources.
Entity resolution
We map company names, subsidiaries, and aliases to canonical entities using LEI and proprietary matching algorithms.
Freshness tracking
Every data point has a timestamp. We flag stale data and prioritize recent evidence.
