BQ AI is an initiative to build a super-intelligence of the global economy, beginning with the U.S. economy, by leveraging BQ’s proprietary database of financial, legal, and employment information on companies and people, along with other sources. BQ AI is being built from the ground up at the atomic level, by modeling the economy as a complex system of interacting companies, consumers, households, governments, and events. Specifically, BQ AI will connect the “micro view” of particular companies and people to the “macro view” of regions, industries, governments, and the environment.
