We exist to discover social science insights from alternative data. We couple a large appetite for rapidly emerging sources of new data with a pan-empirical toolset that ranges from causal empirical methodologies to the latest data science and machine learning approaches. SoDa Labs is a hub for inter-disciplinary collaboration with links from our home in the economic sciences to colleagues and collaborators in computer science, political science, history, sociology, legal studies, geo-spatial sciences, remote-sensing, and geography. SoDa Laboratories is also about real-world impact. Through our partner web applications and sites, and our evolving suite of collaborations with government and industry we seek to bring the best of SoDa to some of humanity’s most important problems.
