The Platform

One connected operating system for the local economy

Not a collection of disconnected software products — an ecosystem where every component feeds the others, supporting entrepreneurs, businesses, institutions, and communities.

The big picture

Five key intelligence areas. One executive view.

We deliver a complete view of the local economy through five key intelligence areas — each answering a question every community leader is already asking.

Featured components

One platform, many solutions

MSMI

Main Street Market Index

Local Business Activity

Think Bloomberg, but for Main Street — providing visibility on locally owned businesses.

Visibility is the first form of investment. The Main Street Market Index gives locally owned businesses the kind of visibility public companies take for granted — who they are, where they are, what they do, and how they're growing — one live map and directory of the neighborhood economy.

GB

Genesis Bridge

Entrepreneur Readiness

An entrepreneur readiness system that bridges the gap between inspiration and activation.

Most entrepreneurs don't fail from lack of ambition — they stall between inspiration and activation. Genesis Bridge is the readiness pipeline that moves aspiring founders through structured stages, with checklists, programs, and milestones that make progress concrete.

CC

Capital Connections

Capital

Measures and tracks the readiness of potential borrowers to qualify for funding.

Lenders have capital; communities have borrowers. What's missing is a shared picture of readiness. Capital Connections measures and tracks borrower readiness so capital can be deployed where it's actually able to land.

B2B

Bridge2Bid

Procurement

A procurement readiness system that connects qualified suppliers with local buyers.

Institutions want to buy local — they just can't see who's qualified. Bridge2Bid tracks procurement readiness and connects qualified suppliers with the cities, counties, anchor institutions, and corporations that buy.

NEI

Neighborhood Economy Index

Community Health

Is your Neighborhood Economy healthy? The NEI provides a scoring system to tell you.

The Neighborhood Economy Index is the score at the center of the system: a transparent, tiered measurement of neighborhood economic health, built from real data on output, benchmarks, and capital movement.

NEX

NEX Connect

Activation

This activation platform connects and coordinates the local economy into a measurable network.

NEX Connect is the activation layer — events, memberships, referrals, and partner networks that turn a directory into a living, coordinated economy you can measure.
