Methodology

How we build our intelligence

Disintermediate's market intelligence is built through direct engagement with market participants - not scraped from press releases or synthesised from secondary sources. Data is sourced from vendor conversations, operator relationships, pricing APIs, public filings, regulatory databases, and on-the-ground facility assessments.

For a detailed description of our data collection, verification, and maintenance processes, see our methodology page.
