Our Quality

Powerlytics derives its data from the only consistent and complete source in the United States to capture financial information – the tax return. As a result, the database is:
  • Accurate – Significant penalties for inaccurate reporting vs. survey-based data with no penalties
  • Comprehensive – Includes all 30 million for-profit public and private businesses and 154 million households/209 million adults in the U.S., not just those who completed a survey. Moreover, this information is obtained every year and updated quarterly from the entire population, as opposed to every ten years with Census surveys for consumer data and periodic intervals for businesses.
  • Granular – Detailed financial statements for businesses and 200 income and expense items for households vs. highly summarized information provided by other vendors that rely on surveys
  • Consistent – Financial statements are not subject to the “apples and oranges” issues faced by combining survey-based financial statements with different line item classification. All financials are derived from IRS* tax return data.
