Built for Both Sides of the Decision

For the communities competing and the teams comparing them.

Economic Development Organizations

Benchmark the places you actually compete with, answer RFIs with current numbers, understand incentive competition, support strategy, and walk into board or council meetings with evidence you can defend.

  • Benchmark peer and competitor markets
  • Identify strengths and exposures
  • Support RFIs, strategic plans, and CEDS work
  • Understand competing incentive activity
  • Create materials ready for boards and councils

Site Selectors & Corporate Location Teams

Screen markets on cost, labor, risk, and incentive activity before making calls, compare locations on a common basis, and build shortlists ready for clients from the same source of truth.

  • Screen long lists of locations
  • Compare markets on a common basis
  • Review incentive track records by state and industry
  • Narrow the field before outreach
  • Build comparisons and reports ready for clients

Know what states actually do, not just what they advertise.

Insights pairs a verified catalog of state incentive programs with Incenti's proprietary award intelligence. See which companies and industries receive support, how deal sizes vary, which incentive types are used, and how activity changes over time.

Frequently asked questions

What is Incenti Insights?
Incenti Insights is a location intelligence platform built for economic developers and site selectors. It brings market, workforce, cost, risk, quality of life, industry, and incentive intelligence into one sourced view so teams can research, compare, ask questions, and report on locations.
What geographic levels does Insights cover?
Insights supports states, metropolitan areas, counties, cities, and Economic Development District regions. Some measures are published directly at the city level. Where an agency does not publish a city level value, Insights can show the relevant county value and labels it as inherited.
Where does the data in Insights come from?
Insights draws from public agencies and verified program sources used in economic development and site selection. Every value traces to its publishing source. Modeled, estimated, or inherited values are labeled.
Does Insights include actual incentive award data?
Yes. Insights pairs a verified state incentive program catalog with Incenti's proprietary database of corporate incentive awards. Award records are standardized so teams can analyze activity by state, company, industry, program type, deal size, and year.
Can I create reports and export data from Insights?
Yes. Insights creates branded PDF reports ready to print and supports CSV and Excel exports for selected data.
How is Insights different from EDOS?
EDOS is the operating system for economic development, focused on projects, programs, properties, relationships, and daily work. Insights is the intelligence layer, focused on markets, benchmarks, workforce, incentives, cost, risk, and competitive position.
