METHODOLOGY
Five dimensions. One comparable signal.
A transparent overview of how FirstSignal converts observable company activity into research scores.
Research pipeline
- Gather recent information from official public company channels.
- Use language models to classify substantive activity signals.
- Quantify signal intensity on an absolute 0–100 scale.
- Combine AI demand (30%), capacity (20%), R&D (20%), sales (15%) and expansion (15%).
- Refresh tracked companies daily and retain history for comparison.
Interpretation limits
A score measures the intensity of visible expansion activity. It is not a valuation model, probability of positive return, analyst recommendation, or statement of a company’s financial health. Short histories and sparse public information reduce reliability.
