ClusterPulse

ClusterPulse is a web app (with a lightweight mobile companion) that helps economic development orgs, accelerators, and cluster managers track whether a regional ecosystem is actually improving—beyond vanity metrics. It ingests public and partner data (business registries, job postings, grants, patents, procurement awards, events, and member rosters) and maps relationships between firms, universities, investors, and suppliers. The app produces defensible dashboards for boards and funders: cluster health scores, collaboration density, talent inflow/outflow signals, supplier gaps, and “who should meet whom” recommendations. It also includes a simple CRM-lite layer for managing member organizations, introductions, and outcomes (pilots launched, contracts signed, hires made). This is a combination traditional + AI app: AI is used for entity resolution, tagging, and relationship inference, but the core value is clean, auditable data and reporting that survives scrutiny.
