How often is the data updated?

Where does the data come from?
AlphaSense sources Workforce Analytics from Revelio Labs. Revelio aggregates data from:
- Publicly available online professional profiles
- Employer review websites
- Job posting sites
These sources help build a comprehensive view of a company’s workforce—often including contract and temporary workers.
How are hiring, attrition, and growth calculated?
Metrics use the following formulas:
- Hiring = Total external inflows ÷ 12-month average headcount
- Attrition = Total external outflows ÷ 12-month average headcount
- Growth = Hiring – Attrition
Why might headcount data differ from public reports?
Workforce data relies on online professional profiles, which may vary in coverage:
- Underrepresented industries: manufacturing, hospitality, retail
- Overrepresented industries: tech, media, and high-visibility companies
Also, AlphaSense includes contingent workers in its headcount, which may not appear in public financial disclosures.
How are acquisitions handled?
Historical acquisitions are reflected in the time series based on the current corporate structure.
