# Dataplor

> Dataplor sells enterprise location intelligence: a continuously updated global dataset of more than 370 million places and 15,000 brands across 250-plus countries and territories, plus a visual platform that lets teams explore that data in plain English. Its defensible trick is less glamorous than the AI label - machine learning, call bots and native-language human validators reconcile the messy reality of businesses opening, closing, moving and existing mostly offline.
