The Solstice Institute helps governments, service providers, and organizations use data to improve the way they deliver results.
Our proven data-driven management approach focuses on building local capacity to turn data into action. This is enabled by our free and open-access data management platform, which democratizes the tools of data analytics to collect, analyze, and collaborate using modern digital and mobile technology.
We believe that the first step to improving public services and attracting more investment to the sector is to create reliable data systems. Using reliable data to plan, execute, and evaluate results leads to positive cycles of increasing performance, public confidence, and financial investment. We help our partners and over 250,000 free users of our software platform to become data-driven, regardless of where they are located or their level of capacity.
We work with hundreds of partners across the world
Data Platform
Solstice provides a free, scalable technology platform that enables data-driven management by governments, utilities, service providers, NGOs, and private sector partners. We designed our data platform from the ground up to use modern mobile and cloud technologies to help democratize data.
Free and open: All features of the Solstice platform are free for unlimited use. Anyone can sign up for an account and start collecting data in minutes.
Your data belongs to you: Our users own their data and decide what to share and what to keep private. We will never sell access to data or share it with anyone. This promotes platform adoption, long-term usage, and client independence.
Designed for collaboration: Solstice makes it easy to share data and collaborate with governments to monitor public infrastructure. We also provide a library of standard forms and indicators to help make data comparable.
Secure and reliable: All Solstice data is stored in our secure cloud-based servers, which allows us to maintain the highest security and reliability. Users can download any or all of their data at any time, and everything is automatically backed up.
The free platform model, along with the technical assistance and training that Solstice provides to partners and local firms, helps to modernize governance systems in resource-poor regions, and promotes standardized approaches to management.
The Solstice platform has grown to over 200,000 user accounts in 197 countries.
