About Seahorse Analytics

Seahorse Analytics' core specialty is solving ill-defined business problems which are often beyond the scope of the client’s internal staff to address. Often, clients come to us requiring the answer to a specific issue. Our first step is always to fully understand the problem and the data available to us in solving that problem. Given the type and amount of data available, we then determine the appropriate methodology to solve the problem. Alternatively, in the case where relevant data doesn't exist or is not easily accessible, we would determine the optimal approach to collect the required data.
