Welcome to Boosting Data

Our goal is to entertain you by providing unique interactions with our data.

What is Boosting Data?

We love data. It is beautifully powerful. And yet, data all by itself is extremely boring. It is only when analyzed and displayed that the data starts to tell a story. Adding a visual representation of the data brings it to life.

At Boosting Data we have scraped together interesting datasets and turned them into entertaining, interactive games and visualizations. We want to tell you a story with our data, but one that will be different with each interaction. We like to think of it as our way of boosting the data.
