<h3 id="bringing-unique-insights-to-businesses-across-all-industries-through-a-customisable-comprehensive-web-based-platform">Bringing unique insights to businesses across all industries through a customisable, comprehensive web-based platform</h3>The current data economy lacks transparency and sustainability for both individuals and businesses. For organisations that want to launch their business into the future, there is currently no solution that gives them an edge over their competitors without compromising on the security and ethics of the everyday internet user. Business tools remain stagnant and ill-equipped to best serve the interests of all actors and instead rely on extractive, obscure practices.The demand for sustainable, people-oriented solutions is obvious. With increasing legislation, like <a href="https://www.pwc.com/us/en/services/consulting/risk-regulatory/library/top-policy-trends/data-privacy.html" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">GDPR and CCPA</a>, increasing demands for better data rights, and the demise of third-party cookies, businesses are in dire need of alternatives. The 2021 Customer Engagement Report by <a href="https://www.merkleinc.com/emea/thought-leadership/white-papers/2021-customer-engagement-report" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Merkle</a> revealed that 88 percent of marketers are prioritising the collection of more first-party data in an effort to prepare for a future without cookies. The same report also stated that 74 percent of marketing, technology and analytics plan to increase investment in tech to account for rising data restrictions.Swash is pioneering a new solution that allows for businesses to access unique Competitive and Market Intelligence (CMI) insights for their industry via a simple, customisable web-based platform. <a href="https://www.gartner.com/en/marketing/research/cmo-spend-survey-2019-2020" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">32 percent</a> of marketers identified marketing analytics and competitive insights as the most important factors for their strategies, ranking higher than any other category. The need for this is clear.The sIntelligence platform marks a turning point in the world of CMI, bypassing the existing model by connecting Swash data — diverse, <a href="https://go.forrester.com/blogs/straight-from-the-source-collecting-zero-party-data-from-customers/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">zero-party</a>, cross-browser, and multi-domain — to businesses who want to bring real value to their customers.Keep reading to learn more about the mechanics of the sIntelligence platform, the benefits it brings to individuals and businesses, and how it marks the first steps towards a new, transparent, and decentralised data economy.<h3 id="sintelligence-the-go-to-web-3-solution-for-market-insights">sIntelligence: The go-to Web 3 solution for market insights</h3>As we approach the first stage (Surf) of the development <a href="https://swashapp.io/token" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Roadmap</a>, let’s deep dive into the sIntelligence platform to give you a taster of what’s to come.Aimed at businesses, sIntelligence will be a web-based platform for businesses to start accessing high-quality data that’s given with explicit knowledge and consent, while enjoying a full range of reliable, up-to-date, and cross-sectional metrics.Until now, conglomerates have had an advantage over smaller businesses in accessing large quantities of data due to their size and <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/age-big-tech-new-age-monopoly-opinion-1589892" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">monopoly over the internet</a>. This data is then held in vast data silos, which is either completely inaccessible or only accessible in the margins of their authority, putting them ahead of others while cementing their dominance.Swash’s mission is to rebalance the data economy. This all starts by recognising the needs of everyone involved while finding a way to enable them to work in synergy, as expressed in the <a href="https://swashapp.io/static/files/paper/whitepaper-v1-july-2021.pdf" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Swash Key Principles</a>:<img src="https://miro.medium.com/max/1400/0*mjJgX8ppebJYFObr.png" />The sIntelligence platform will be fuelled by Swash data.
