Datasets-as-a-Service

A clear Work Products that you can provide to your audience is a collection of clean, standardized, and up-to-date database of datasets that is relevant for your Niche.

Why it matters: This is an unsolved problem.

• It is a hard problem. It is likely to be outsourced because building and maintaining datasets is a full-time activity that requires domain knowledge and dedicated bandwidth.
• Most suppliers provide this data as Charts-as-a-Service or dashboards instead of programmatic access.
• There is a market for this within each Niche industry.

Example:

• CMI, Dataful.in, and How India Lives provides socio-economic government data.
• Sports Interactive provides granular cricket match data.
• Neilson provides live election counting day data.
• The Bloomberg Terminal also provides financial data.
