Company profile

researched Aug 2026

Economic Mind is a Norwegian software company that operates a web-based market intelligence platform built on what it describes as a bottom-up model, or digital twin, of the global economy. The company constructs the model by analysing individual companies and breaking them down into their underlying business activities, then aggregating company-level financials and business-activity data into market views. Users can size and segment markets across combinations of 195 countries, examine market development, profitability and drivers, map competitive landscapes, and research individual company profiles including market presence, competitors and portfolio.

The platform emphasises traceability: each figure is intended to be verifiable back to the underlying company, source and methodology. Segmentation is offered across dimensions such as product, geography, customer type, value chain position and business model, allowing analysis of both broad sectors and narrow niches. Outputs are exportable for use in market perspectives, pitch material and investment or strategy decisions. The company positions the product as an alternative to commissioned consulting reports and manual market-sizing work.

Economic Mind is headquartered in Oslo, Norway, at Akersgata 51, and is described by third-party startup directories as a seed-stage B2B SaaS business in the enterprise software, AI and competitive intelligence categories.

Business model

B2B SaaS: subscription access to a web-based market intelligence platform sold to professional analysis teams, with demo requests and a lead-capture flow for platform access on the company website. Third-party directories classify the company's model as B2B SaaS.

Software platform sold to business users, with data exportable for use in client and internal deliverables; the company markets it as a substitute for commissioned consulting research.

Traction

Latest developments

The company website carries a 2026 copyright notice and continues to market the platform with open careers listings.

Full profile — market position, technology, go-to-market, geography, risks & controversies

Market position

Positioned as a digital, traceable alternative to consulting-firm market studies and manual bottom-up market modelling, competing in the market and competitive intelligence data segment.

Claims a bottom-up rather than top-down construction of market estimates, unified coverage across markets, countries and companies, and full traceability of every data point to its underlying company source and methodology; the product is presented as built by M&A professionals for M&A professionals.

Technology

A bottom-up model of the global economy assembled by analysing and interpreting individual companies and decomposing them into underlying business activities, and aggregating structured company financials into market-level views. The company cites approximately 500,000 markets, 40 million companies, around 650,000 words analysed per company, about 13.5 billion source references and roughly 10,000 segmentation lenses; elsewhere on its site it cites over 100,000 markets and 10 million companies. Reported web infrastructure includes Cloudflare CDN, HTTP/3 and HSTS.

Go-to-market

Direct online acquisition through demo requests and a market-access sign-up form on the company website, supported by customer testimonials and use-case pages targeted at investment banking, consulting, investor, business leader and government segments.

Investment banking teams, management consultants, investors, business leaders and government users who need market sizing, competitive benchmarking and company research.

Geography

Headquartered in Oslo, Norway, with platform coverage marketed across 195 countries.

Risks & controversies

Published figures about the company vary across sources: coverage claims on the company's own site differ between roughly 500,000 markets and 40 million companies in one section and over 100,000 markets and 10 million companies in another, and third-party aggregators report conflicting funding totals and stages, including an unverified pre-seed figure far larger than other listings.
