Vertical Knowledge
Open-web data collection and raw datasets, now within Babel Street
Vertical Knowledge built large-scale collection infrastructure that harvests publicly available web information into structured raw datasets for commercial and government users. Following its January 2024 acquisition by Babel Street, its focus has moved toward identity intelligence and risk operations rather than investment research.
GAII take
Largely exited buy-side data; existing users should confirm product support and consider dedicated web-data vendors for investment use.
