Best-in-class
data processing technology

Worldwide data
processed in real-time

Our proprietary data parsers collect electricity data from over 100 sources, so you get access to global data through one API.

Advanced power flow analysis & forecasting

Our proprietary data engine processes the collected data —cleaning, refining, detecting anomalies, and filling gaps using our estimation models.

Standardized access through a REST API

Our API provides a consistent and reliable way to interact with the system. With clear endpoints, standardized responses, and robust documentation, developers can quickly access and manage data while maintaining flexibility and scalability.

Data backed by science

We process electricity data from 200+ zones using verified sources. An estimation pipeline handles missing data, and a flow-tracing pipeline calculates electricity origins and carbon intensity, accounting for imports and grid complexity. This ensures accurate, real-time carbon data, available via our app and API.
