Proprietary data from markets nobody else is watching.

D9 builds and maintains proprietary datasets in fragmented, niche markets, supplying clients across finance, insurance, meteorology, mortgage, and various other industries.

Contact us About D9

Every market leaves a record. Almost none of it arrives ready to use.

The data that matters is rarely in a terminal. It is fragmented across regional sources, private ledgers, and relationships that no single vendor holds, and it is rarely usable as found.

D9 develops proprietary datasets from those sources, enriches them with information that is not publicly available, and maintains them continuously as versioned, licensable assets. The discipline is the same whether the market is livestock, mortgages, motor carriers, or weather exposure. What changes is who requires it.

One discipline. Applied across industries.

  • Finance

    Alternative data for institutional investors, private equity and credit funds, hedge funds, and derivatives desks. Regional pricing and regulatory activity in advance of published figures.

  • Insurance and reinsurance

    Exposure, loss, and claims statistics at the geography the policy is written on, for underwriting, claims, and reinsurance placement.

  • Meteorology and climate

    Ground-truth economic outcomes that allow forecasts and catastrophe models to be scored against what actually occurred.

  • Mortgage and real estate

    Originations, liens, and transfers nationwide, enriched with lender, servicer, and property attributes that commercial providers do not carry.

  • Transportation and logistics

    Carrier authority, insurance, safety, and fleet changes across the full operating population.

  • Agriculture and commodities

    Cash markets that do not clear through an exchange: sale barns, elevators, cooperatives, and regional auctions.

  • Energy and utilities

    Permitting, interconnection, outage, and rate-case activity, linked across state and regional jurisdictions into a single view.

  • Maritime and trade

    Port activity, vessel and cargo filings, and regional trade flows reconciled across jurisdictions.

  • Public sector and procurement

    Solicitations, awards, and contract performance across state and local authorities, enriched with vendor and outcome attributes.

Additional sectors are covered on request. If the market exists, a record of it usually does too.

Applied wherever a decision depends on the record.

  • Alpha generation

    Differentiated signals from markets not covered by consensus data vendors.

  • Underwriting and pricing

    Exposure and loss history at the resolution the risk is actually written.

  • Due diligence

    Independent verification of a target's market, counterparties, and operating history.

  • Risk and exposure monitoring

    Continuous observation of a portfolio's underlying markets between reporting periods.

  • Forecast validation

    Realized outcomes against which models and forecasts can be scored and recalibrated.

  • Regulatory and compliance monitoring

    Filing, authority, and licensing changes tracked across the full population of regulated entities.

Develop, enrich, deliver. Continuously.

A dataset is only proprietary if it contains what others cannot obtain, and only valuable if it is maintained. Much of what we supply reflects years of sustained development in a single market.

Source

Public filings form the baseline. Licensed private data, proprietary relationships, and direct primary research provide what the public record does not.

Enrich

Proprietary attributes, model-derived fields, and cross-source linkage, with entity resolution and point-in-time versioning, so that each record carries more than any single source reports.

Deliver

Flat files, database replicas, API access, or scheduled delivery to your warehouse. Full lineage on every record, back to the source document.

AI-native at the core. Human-verified at the edge.

The markets we cover do not publish clean tables. They publish scanned filings, inconsistent portals, and reports written for a human reader. Our data development pipeline is built around models from the ground up, with analysts reviewing what the models flag rather than what they process.

D9 is powered by ThinkD9 OS, our proprietary AI platform for data development, enrichment, and delivery.

Extraction

Models read unstructured and semi-structured sources at scale, including scanned documents, portal exports, and free-text reports, and convert them to structured records.

Resolution

Model-based entity resolution and normalization reconcile the same counterparty, asset, or instrument across sources that describe it differently.

Assurance

Anomaly detection runs on every refresh. Exceptions are routed to analysts for review before delivery, and every record carries its lineage to the source document.

How we work with clients.

Every engagement is conducted under a strict non-disclosure agreement. Scope, exclusivity, and delivery terms are agreed before any data changes hands.

Retained services

A monthly retainer covering ongoing development, maintenance, and delivery of a defined dataset, with refresh cadence and delivery format set to the client's requirements.

Exclusive licensing

Datasets licensed to a limited number of counterparties, or to a single client on a sole-license basis for a market the client needs to itself.

Bespoke builds

Custom datasets specified with the client and built to order. Ownership or exclusive license of the resulting asset is defined in the engagement terms.

Who we serve.

D9 serves institutions that allocate capital and underwrite exposure, including asset managers, private equity and credit funds, hedge funds, derivatives desks, specialty carriers, reinsurers, and catastrophe and weather-risk modelers. We also serve the lenders, operators, and investors within the markets we cover: mortgage lenders and servicers, freight brokers, transportation insurers, energy traders, utility investors, shipping and trade-finance desks, government contractors, infrastructure investors, and commodity trading houses.

Client identities are confidential. References are available on request, subject to the consent of the client and a non-disclosure agreement.

Tell us the market. We will tell you what we can build.

All inquiries will be responded to within 24 hours.
