Market intelligence built from Norway’s company accounts: figures you can put in front of a board or an investor, a way to track the market your portfolio sits in, and a deep specialism in auditing and accounting that exists nowhere else.
Each draws on its own sources. The market module reads filed company accounts; the auditor and accountant modules add the registers and assignment histories that describe who works for whom, and how that changes.
Define the market you actually compete in, then examine it as closely as you would examine one company.
The audit market as it moves: who holds which clients, where the work is going, and which companies are about to need an auditor.
The same portfolio view for accounting firms: who serves whom, how that has changed, and where a practice is growing.
The path through the market module is the path a careful analyst would take anyway. The product just refuses to let you skip a step.
Start from a company or from criteria. Filter by industry, county, revenue, employees. Add or remove companies by hand. Companies that have since closed stay in the years they traded, so history is not quietly rewritten by today’s survivors.
Before you read a single chart, OysterQ flags what would distort it: a company larger than the rest combined, a margin far outside the group, a year that breaks a company’s own pattern, a filing that looks like a unit error. Exclude them, see the effect, put them back.
Revenue and earnings over a decade, cost structure, working capital, returns and capital. Every figure on a standard or group accounts basis, switched with one control. Compare the company against the rest of the market, or look at the market alone.
Save the views that make your case into a project, in the order they should be read. When the underlying data is replaced, a saved view is marked as needing review rather than silently changing under its own title.
Market data is easy to produce and hard to trust. Most of the work in OysterQ is not in drawing charts — it is in making sure the figure on the chart is the figure you think it is.
Everything in OysterQ is built from public Norwegian sources. No figure is estimated or adjusted by us: what you see is what the company filed.
OysterQ is sold to firms rather than by seat. If your firm has an account, sign in. If not, tell us what you would use it for.
