Pharos Technologies builds AI-powered intelligence products for Northern Ireland's institutions, government, and business community — putting decades of public data to work in real time.
Pharos serves distinct audiences through purpose-built product surfaces — each drawing on the same integrated data foundation.
Economic and business intelligence for NI's corporate and SME market. Understand the markets, sectors, and geographies that matter to your business — with data previously accessible only to organisations with dedicated research teams.
Policy and economic sensitivity analysis for NI's public sector and research institutions. Understand how economic conditions and policy changes land across communities — with outputs designed for the briefing room.
Every source is normalised into a common schema. Cross-domain queries — earnings against health outcomes, company formation against qualification levels — run instantly without manual assembly.
Natural language queries return plain English answers grounded in real NI data. Analytical outputs are generated automatically and presented in a form ready for briefings and reports.
The platform reflects NI's distinct economic context — its LGD geography, its cross-border dimension, its public sector composition, and its unique demographic and political landscape.
Model the impact of policy changes, economic shocks, and market shifts across NI's communities — with outputs ranked by exposure and explained by underlying demographic drivers.
Every source is ingested, normalised, and kept current — providing a single queryable layer across NI's economic and demographic landscape.
Economic indicators, labour market statistics, population data, and weekly deaths — auto-ingested across all NI geographies.
44 demographic categories covering population, health, housing, employment, qualifications, religion, identity, and tenure.
Full NI, England & Wales, and Scotland datasets — formation dates, company status, SIC codes, officer data, and addresses.
Earnings data by LGD, occupation, industry, age group, skill level, and public/private sector split.
Public expenditure, ministerial meetings, travel, and special adviser records providing a full government transparency layer.
Cross-border company data enabling all-island business intelligence and cross-jurisdictional economic analysis.
Northern Ireland's public data is rich, granular, and largely inaccessible in any integrated form. Government departments, research institutions, and businesses that need to understand NI's economic geography have historically faced the same problem — the data exists, but connecting it requires weeks of manual work and significant analytical resource.
Pharos was built to solve that. Drawing on a background in management consulting and a detailed understanding of NI's economic, demographic, and political landscape, Pharos Technologies integrates the authoritative public sources into a single platform — and applies AI to make that intelligence queryable, analysable, and immediately useful.
The result is a capability that has not existed in Northern Ireland before: real-time, cross-domain intelligence at the level of individual communities — available to the institutions, businesses, and researchers that need it most.
Pharos Technologies Limited is a registered UK company, founded and built in Northern Ireland.
Pharos is available for demonstration to government departments, research institutions, and corporate organisations with a genuine interest in NI economic intelligence.
Demonstrations take approximately 30 minutes and are tailored to the questions and use cases most relevant to your work.
