At WikiRate we have developed an open data platform that allows anyone to systematically gather, analyze and report publicly available information on corporate ESG practices. By bringing this information together in one place, and making it accessible, comparable and free for all, we aim to provide society with the tools and evidence it needs to spur corporations to respond to the world's social and environmental challenges.

To date, WikiRate.org is the largest open source registry of ESG data in the world with more than 900,000 data points for over 55,000 companies.
