CARBON ARCA5 · direct accessManage supplier listing

First-party alternative labour and compensation panel built from observed digital behaviour rather than job postings or surveys. Two named products appear in this release: Carbon Arc SMB Workforce (CA0055) — a constant-employer panel of indexed unique workers at small-to-medium technology businesses, delivered as a rebased index, month-over-month and year-over-year growth, census-region splits across all nine US regions, and median annualised pay growth; and a Clickstream analysis series (CA0030) tracking the share of job starts by role, employer and seniority. Published observations run July 2023 to December 2025 and resolve to named firms — Perplexity nearly quadrupling headcount in 2025 while Anthropic and Mistral doubled.

Type: not stated
Format: Tabular series — charts rendered in released insight notes are derived aggregates, while the actual deliverable is stated to be row-level bulk data access granted on request. Distribution model is described as an insights exchange, with redistribution of the published insights themselves permitted under attribution.
Volume: Panel-scale rather than record-scale: indexed unique workers across a maintained SMB-tech employer universe with monthly resolution, nine census-region splits, and a role/employer/seniority job-start series. A 79-person company running $56M of venture capital behind multiple product codes implies a substantial underlying panel, but no worker or row count is published in this release.
Users: N/A — a subscription data vendor selling panels and bulk extracts to institutional clients, not a registered-user platform; client base is institutional subscribers, consistent with a 79-employee venture-backed operation.
History: 3 years
Update frequency: not stated
Growth: Active — insight notes are published on a current cadence (this release dated January 7 2026 covering data through December 2025), with multiple distinct product codes in circulation and an explicit standing route to request row-level access.
Launched: ~2021 — the company record shows a New York venture-backed entity with $56M raised and roughly 79 staff, and the earliest data in this release is July 2023, so the panel was collecting by then and the company predates it.
