The data that tells you which market to enter already exists.

Every year, Nordic and Baltic trade agencies publish market guides. Every year, consultancies sell market-entry reports for five figures. And every year, the underlying data behind both of those products is sitting in the same eight public databases, free to query, updated on a predictable schedule.

UN Comtrade has bilateral trade volumes back to 1962. The World Bank publishes ease-of-doing-business indicators for nearly 200 countries. WIPO tracks every trademark and patent filing globally. The ITU measures digital infrastructure maturity market by market. None of this is proprietary. None of it requires a research team to access.

What's missing isn't the data — it's the connective layer that takes a specific company, in a specific home market, considering a specific destination, and turns eight disconnected datasets into one number with a clear trail back to its sources.

That's the entire thesis behind Arikaart. Not new data. A new way of combining data that already exists, scoped to a real company instead of a country in the abstract.
