Secondmeasure

Bloomberg Second Measure is an alternative-data analytics provider that turns billions of anonymized U.S. consumer transaction records into daily company- and sector-level performance signals for investors and corporate strategy teams. It tracks thousands of public and private companies with 8+ years of transaction history, offering configurable lag options (2-day, 3-day, 7-day) from card swipe. Following its acquisition by Bloomberg, its analytics and transaction-level data feeds are delivered primarily through the Bloomberg Terminal (ALTD and ECAN ) and enterprise data feeds rather than a public self-serve developer API. It was surfaced as a portfolio company of Norwest Venture Partners and added to the API Evangelist network for enrichment; no public API surface was found on the provider's site as of this pass.

Secondmeasure is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Alternative Data, Consumer Transaction Data, Analytics, and Financial Data.

Secondmeasure’s developer surface includes engineering blog and 4 more developer resources.
