Reference data
FactGraph
The FactGraph is the graph Cloudswift builds from public data. Publicly visible obituaries are part of it. Customer matching compares your records with this graph.
What it does
Public data, aggregated
Cloudswift collects data that is already publicly visible and connects it in a graph. Obituaries are the collection this site describes. Other public records may be in the graph; we will say which ones apply to your agreement.
The reference side of a match
Your customer file is not the FactGraph. The FactGraph is what we compare that file with. How much of your file is retained is a separate question, answered in the agreement.
Entities and relationships we can support
A match can use the people, obituaries, and related public records the graph actually contains. We will not pretend a relationship exists because a slide needs one.
It changes as collection changes
Sources appear and disappear. A record that is public today may not have been collected yet. Freshness is something to ask about for your use case, not a number printed here.
Where it is used
Obituary reference
The graph holds the obituary side of Obituary Match.
Broader entity match
Where the graph has more than an obituary, Graph Connections can use that context. Ask which record types are in scope.
Watching for a new link
If alerts are in the agreement, a new public-data connection in the graph can be the thing we notify you about.
Described plainly
- This site does not publish entity counts, relationship counts, or a count of sources.
- The FactGraph described here is public data Cloudswift aggregates. It is not marketed as a private intelligence file.
- Customer records you submit are not added to a graph other customers can browse.
