Brand

The customer-facing identity of a business—the name and presence under which it engages with customers. A brand represents a distinct commercial identity and may operate across multiple physical locations and websites. A single legal entity may do business under one or more brands (for example, a franchisor operating under multiple trade names), and a brand may be backed by one or more legal entities.

GraphQL type: Brand

Example

Seasonality Index (Brand)

The Seasonality Index identifies brands with recurring seasonal revenue patterns, measuring both the overall concentration of revenue across months and the specific month in which revenue consistently peaks.

Pricing tier: Premium

Field	Name	Type	Description
Gini Score	gini_score	double	A score from 0 to 1 measuring how concentrated a business's card revenue is across months. Computed as the Gini coefficient of monthly revenue shares within each 12-month period, then taking the minimum across the three periods as a conservative floor. A higher score indicates greater revenue concentration across fewer months. Scores of 0.4 and above indicate meaningful seasonality.
Recurring Peak Month	recurring_peak_month	string	The month (e.g. "July") where card revenue is most concentrated across observed periods. Only populated when the peak month accounts for at least 20% of annual revenue in every observed period. NULL indicates no consistent seasonal peak was detected. Note: only the single dominant peak month is surfaced. Businesses with multiple seasonal peaks will show only the month with the highest recurring revenue share. As 65% of seasonal businesses at the recommended threshold have a single peak, this captures the majority of cases.
Peak Month Revenue Share	peak_month_revenue_share	double	The revenue share of the peak calendar month, expressed as a value between 0 and 1. For example, a value of 0.20 means the peak month accounts for at least 20% of annual revenue in every observed period. When this value reaches 0.20, recurring_peak_month is populated. As a reference point, a perfectly flat non-seasonal business would show ~0.08 (1/12 ≈ 8%) for every month, so the 0.20 threshold means the peak month contributes at least 2.5x what a flat business would show.
