Palantir is building an enterprise platform for analysis of financial and intelligence data. Analysts at government agencies across investigative and intelligence realms are experiencing tremendous analytical challenges managing the tidal wave of information that flows across their desks and throughout their knowledge networks. Palantir Government provides a new way of exploring, understanding, and sharing these large sets of structured and unstructured information across departmental and organizational lines. Similarly, Palantir Financial is a powerful new analytical platform for approaching and understanding financial markets. For decades, traders and economists have struggled with conventional financial and statistical software to explore the financial world. With Palantir, analysts directly explore and manipulate dynamic financial concepts. Properties and connections amongst a vast array of time series, time periods, macroeconomic trends and events, and exotic hedge fund strategies can be discovered, published and shared, unlocking organizational knowledge.
