Contact usHow broad is Clarity AI’s controversy coverage?
Clarity AI offers one of the most comprehensive controversy monitoring solutions available, screening over 250,000 articles daily across 200 countries and territories. We cover 50,000+ public companies and expanding datasets on demand. Our AI identifies and classifies relevant ESG-related incidents, offering global reach with the depth needed to assess reputational and compliance risks in context.
How is controversy severity determined?
Our NLP models assign severity ratings—both current and peak—based on a comprehensive methodology that evaluates the magnitude of the issue, business risk, reputational risk, and how the company is managing the situation. Medium- and high-severity issues are then reviewed and validated by our team of sustainability experts to ensure consistency and credibility. This approach helps you focus on what’s truly material, rather than just what’s making noise.
How does this help me focus on the most relevant risks?
Clarity AI helps you cut through the noise by grouping incidents into clusters of related news, assessing severity over time, and generating AI-driven summaries. This structure allows you to spot repeated behaviors, track escalation, and focus your attention on the issues most likely to impact portfolio performance or stakeholder perception.
What makes this different from other news screening tools?
Most tools flood you with headlines. Clarity AI turns raw information into structured, decision-ready insights. Our models filter irrelevant noise, assign severity, and group related events over time to show the full story as it unfolds. And with our AI Assistant, you can get instant answers to the questions that stand between you and a confident decision.
Can I use your controversy data for regulatory reporting?
Yes. Our controversy data supports sustainability-related regulations such as SFDR Principal Adverse Impact indicators, as well as German-specific ESG standards. By identifying and classifying violations of global norms, our solution helps you demonstrate responsible investment practices and meet increasing expectations for transparency.
