About FactIQ

Democratizing access to the world's economic and financial data.

Our Mission

We believe that high-quality economic data should be accessible to every researcher, not just the desks that can afford six-figure terminals. FactIQ aggregates millions of data series from official sources like the BLS, BEA, Census Bureau, RBI, IMF, and the World Bank, making them instantly searchable and analyzable through a single interface.

FactIQ is built for macro researchers — analysts at hedge funds, banks, policy shops, and think tanks — who need answers grounded in official data, with every number sourced and cited and every chart ready to drop into a memo.

The Team

FactIQ is built by a team that has spent more than a decade working with economic and policy data — across research desks, think tanks, and the engineering teams that ship analytics products.

Manas worked on health and climate datasets at Reuters and The Washington Post, Medha covered policy and economic indicators for senior officials across Asia at Govinsider, and Rishabh led data initiatives at think tanks and research desks including NUS ISAS and The Times of India.

We started FactIQ after first running Defog.ai for 3 years. At Defog, built the world's most popular open-source large language models for data analysis and worked with several Fortune 500 companies to build AI-powered data pipelines - including Toyota, Genmab, and AllianceBernstein.

But we soon realized that the world needed more than just AI-powered data pipelines. We needed a platform that could help people find the truth in the numbers and make data-driven decisions with confidence.

So we built FactIQ - a platform that empowers people to find the truth in the numbers and make data-driven decisions with confidence. We hope you find it useful! Let us know what you think at founders@factiq.com.
