Key Releases
Platform Redesign
Carbon Arc has a new look. Every page is now built with a new layout, giving you a cleaner, more consistent experience as you move across the platform. Nothing about how you work has changed: Builder, Library, Lenses, Block, and your existing workflows all work as before, just with a refreshed interface. Try here
Economic Sentiment (CA0105) in Block
Economic Sentiment provides ZIP-code-level data on how U.S. consumers feel about the economy. It is built from more than 1.3 million survey answers across roughly 17,000 ZIP codes in all 50 states and DC, with history from February 2023 to the present, delivered weekly. It covers 41 economic issues, each asked as current sentiment and as a forecast, from prices, housing, and car purchases to interest rates, jobs, recession odds, and confidence in the Federal Reserve. That makes it easy to track regional economic confidence and anticipate where households expect prices to rise. Read more
Foot Traffic (CA0060) Pipeline Enhancements
Foot Traffic now uses an additional location data source that strengthens its underlying models. The main improvements are coverage of private companies, more accurate visit counts, and better detection of unusual events such as storms or product launches. Historical data has been restated under the new model, and all data going forward will use it. Read more
Credit Card – EU Detailed Panel (CA0042) Pipeline Enhancements
The EU Detailed Panel has been rebuilt on a new panel, with full history restated from 2019. The UK is now published as its own topic, and the EU topic adds Austria to France, Germany, Italy, and Spain. Each country is re-weighted to correct for differences between our panel’s coverage and that country’s consumer spending, so country totals are comparable across the region. Because of these changes, levels and year-over-year growth will differ from the previous version. Read more
Medical & Pharmacy Open Claims (CA0049) Pipeline Enhancements
Open Claims now includes updated deduplication and new normalization panels that control for abnormal growth in provider volume. Medical claims also have more provider organizations tagged, and payer mapping covers more payers. The new tables run alongside the current delivery, so you can move across on your own schedule.

Platform Enhancements
The refreshed Ontology page shows an entity’s data asset coverage alongside a streamlined view of how it connects to brands, apps, and more. Switching between view tabs is smoother on the Ontology page, and entities now include FIGI codes. Search is now faster across the platform. You can’t select a dependent filter until you’ve chosen the filters it relies on, and Web Content data assets in Data Library can now be filtered by Sector. Try here
Prisms
Prisms now support “Month Full” dates on both the Prisms site and the API. We’ve also added 48 new Foot Traffic Prisms and 14 new Arrays. Try here
