Growth Intelligence
Most company databases tell you what a company does. This one tells you whether it is expanding, contracting, or standing still, and how fast, tracked at the company-year level over time.
Detect growth momentum and early contraction signals before they become visible in financials, using multi-year workforce data built on observed records up to 2020.
Screen entire markets by workforce growth velocity across multiple years. Spot hiring momentum or early contraction before it shows up in earnings.

Overview
What It Is
Company-level workforce expansion and contraction measured at the company-year level in absolute and percentage terms, with multi-year hiring momentum distinguishing sustained growth from single-year spikes. This longitudinal dataset focuses on the 1950–2020 period, where company coverage and signal density are highest.
Pre-computed growth percentiles across overall, industry, and size-cohort benchmarks, paired with average employee tenure as a signal of retention quality and organizational stability over time.
Pre-computed growth tiers ranging from rapid contraction to hyper growth, structured as temporal sequences ready for filtering and direct integration into scoring or segmentation workflows.
