User-friendly

Drag, drop and dig deeper. We built time-saving features into Analytics Lab to simplify the often-lengthy process of finding data and developing code. Drag-and-drop capabilities automatically insert Python code from Direct datasets, lists, search criteria, custom-created portfolios and performance reports, so you know the code is robust and correct.

The Analysis Power Trifecta

Built for collaboration

Colleagues with Direct can use all the interactive research you create. Using Analytics Lab requires proficiency in Python, but you don’t need Python skills to interact with research from other users. You can also analyse a library of Interactive Research created by our analysts and research teams.

More efficient workflows

Apply your custom analytics across Direct. Since Analytics Lab is in the Direct ecosystem, clients can access familiar datapoints to create custom calculations in a secure system that transparently outlines their methodology, then add analytics to existing workflows.

Powerful data processing at scale

Fast results for 10 lines of code or 10,000. Analytics Lab’s hosted environment can scale based on computing needs — while analytics run on other platforms can be brought to a standstill when faced with complex calculations, Analytics Lab provides more power on demand to produce quicker results.
