Seven domains, one workbench.
Growth, inflation, labor, fiscal, trade, investment, structural.
Every economy is organized into the same set of macro domains, so you can move from GDP growth to inflation to the fiscal balance without changing tools. Each domain draws on World Bank and IMF series.

KPI cards + charts in one country view.
Open any country to see the most important numbers front and center — growth, inflation, fiscal balance, and more — followed by time-series charts with 5y / 10y / 20y window controls.

05 · OLS PROJECTION

Simple OLS projections with a fitted trend line.
Fit a simple OLS trend to any indicator and extend it forward a few years. View the fitted line, slope, and R² alongside the historical series — a transparent baseline rather than a black-box forecast.
