ABOUT QUADRANT

What is Quadrant?

Quadrant is a cutting-edge platform designed to allow data professionals to obtain and utilize high-quality, authentic data.

Quadrant works with businesses and governments to pinpoint their specific needs and provides solutions that allow these organisations to optimise and tailor the data itself and use it to solve problems.

Quadrant is made up of two parts:

    • • The Quadrant Platform processes over 20 billion records a month and allows companies to choose, source and transact validated data from around the world quickly and efficiently
    • • Quadrant Protocol is a data protocol that uses blockchain technology to authenticate and map data, allowing users to make better business decisions based on information that is fitted to their specific purposes

      By creating an ecosystem that enables access to data that is authentic, traceable and mapped, Quadrant solves data challenges and spurs innovation.

What does Quadrant do?

Quadrant is a data and technology company that helps data professionals obtain and utilise high-quality authentic mobile location data.

Quadrant consists of two parts, the Quadrant Platform and the Quadrant Protocol, which combined allows businesses and governments to solve their data challenges and optimise data to fit their needs.

Quadrant Platform

The Quadrant Platform allows organisations to source and transact authentic data from around the world quickly and easily.

The platform processes over 20 billion records a month, enabling organisations in every industry to purchase data which they can then use to make business and policy decisions.

Quadrant Protocol

The Quadrant Protocol is a data protocol that uses blockchain technology to authenticate and map data.

The Quadrant Protocol “stamps” data at its source with a unique signature, so any data point that has been stamped can be traced and verified back to its origin at any time, ensuring all stamped data is provably authentic.

The technology also allows for the mapping of data into usable, targeted data sets that de-clutter the field of information for professionals and organisations, allowing them to use inputs relevant to their needs and to analyse them effectively and efficiently.

How do we use the Platform?

You can access the platform at the navigation bar located on the top of every page and create an account.

Once you have created an account, you can follow the following steps to begin stamping data:

  1. Buy eQUAD tokens.
  2. Convert eQUAD tokens to our network coins via on-screen instructions within the platform.
  3. Now you are ready to begin using the data stamping client toolkit.

You also can now view all available verified data sets. For additional questions or if you are experiencing issues, please contact sales support at support@quadrant.io

Quadrant.io is a full-service platform that allows companies to choose, source and transact validated data from around the world quickly and efficiently.

The Quadrant Protocol “stamps” data at its source with a unique signature, so any data point that has been stamped can be traced and verified back to its origin at any time, ensuring all stamped data is provably authentic.

The technology also allows for the mapping of data into usable, targeted data sets that de-clutter the field of information for professionals and organisations, allowing them to use inputs relevant to their needs and to analyse them effectively and efficiently.

ABOUT QUADRANT AUDIENCES

What are Quadrant Audiences?

Quadrant Audiences is a data-driven targeting solution designed for marketers, advertisers, and agencies who want to leverage high-quality mobile location data.

 

What is an audience segment?

An audience segment, simply put, is a subset or group of people who have been clustered together based on where they go in the real world. For example, people who frequent a fast-food restaurant will be grouped under the ‘Fast Food Enthusiast’ audience segment.

With these groupings, marketers, advertisers, and agencies can more effectively target ads at them.

 

What audience segments does Quadrant have?

Quadrant offers two types of audience segments: predefined or turnkey audiences, and custom audiences.

Predefined/turnkey audience segments – contain consumer group categories such as Automotive, Travel & Hospitality, Fashion & Beauty, and Retail.

Custom audience segments – create the ideal consumer audience based on their real-world behavior and your specific campaign needs.

 

What geographies do the audience segments cover?

Quadrant Audiences covers the APAC region, with 19 countries and approximately 400 million unique users.

 

Where can i use Quadrant's Audiences?

Quadrant Audiences can be activated across major DMPs and DSPs including Lotame, Google, AppNexus, The Trade Desk, and TubeMogul.

 

How can i get started?

Schedule a call with one of our data consultants and get started with either our predefined segments or our custom segments. Our team will consult with you on your audience targeting needs based on your campaign requirements. Contact us at sales_apac@quadrant.io.

SERVICE CREDITS 

What is Service Credits?

Quadrant's Service Credits allow customers to use Quadrant’s data platform painlessly by purchasing Service Credits – the QUAD tokens that underpin the ecosystem – directly from Quadrant. 

Customers utilise Service Credits as payment for services on the Quadrant.io platform in a manner that is flexible, can be invoiced, with less administrative effort.

Where are the QUAD tokens coming from?

For every QUAD service credit purchased through the platform, one eQUAD will be taken out of circulation on the open market to be used as credit and payment on the platform.

Quadrant will buy eQUAD tokens on the open market at prevailing rates, and then send QUAD to the purchaser’s account in the form of Service Credits.

This process will approximately take 48 hours to complete.

How are Service Credits Priced?

Each credit is priced at $1 US Dollar. Purchases made by Singapore residents or companies may subject to Goods and Services Tax.

When will the tokens show up in my account?

Your Service Credits should appear in your account within 48 hours of completing the purchase.

What can I use Service Credits for?

Credits can be used as a means of payment for services offered on the Quadrant platform.

The first services available are Data Stamping and Verification.

New services will be introduced at the end of Q1 2019.

Can I convert QUAD tokens back into eQUAD?

Service credit QUADs can only be used for services on the platform.

Service credit QUADS bought on the platform are non-refunable and cannot be converted into a tradeable cryptocurrency like eQUAD.

Accounts that were used to buy service credits will have their ability to convert QUADs into eQUAD disabled.

Why do service credits cost 1 USD per token instead of the current market price?

The cost of service credits was derived based on typical market conditions for B2B SaaS models. This service credit initiative is intended for organisations who want to work with Quadrant sans the cryptocurrency. Service credits allow to these organisations to work within their current bookkeeping practices and stay within financial reporting regulations.
We believe this initiative, and the pricing, will entice more organisations to work with Quadrant without worrying about bookkeeping irregularities.
