Company

Neputation is a Business Intelligence (BI) Solution provider focused on corporate and brand reputations.

Background and Vision

The original idea of Neputation was to empower consumers with instant online access to any company’s reputation and the way they conduct their business. These concepts built the foundation of a portal to aggregate information and synthesize the reputation of any company or business.

That foundation has advanced Neputation to offer a strategic platform for Enterprises and individuals to understand and manage their reputation proactively with a 360-degree perspective. Our proprietary Business Intelligence solution delivers the essence of a brand’s reputation with a standardized N-score taking into account all relevant issues imaginable.

We envision N-Score to become the de facto standard in reputation intelligence and management. Our advanced analytics integrated with web conversations, social media, CRM, and proprietary data, provide deeper meaning of the What, When, Why, Where, and How of your business reputation.
