What is Dataminr?

Dataminr is a real-time AI platform that monitors public data sources to detect high-impact events and emerging risks as they happen. It analyses information from news, social media, government sources and other public channels to identify significant developments before they become widely known. The platform is used by businesses to manage operational risks, by government and public sector organisations to respond to crises, and by newsrooms to discover breaking stories early. Its main value lies in providing users with early warning of situations that could affect their operations or interests, allowing faster decision-making and response.
