Reference dataset · 214 matched estates recalculated quarterly
The AuditTrax Index gives every score a peer context, not just an opinion.
An assessment score means little without knowing what a peer group achieves on the same metric. The AuditTrax Index tracks six pillar scores across 214 anonymised estates, allowing every finding in a report to be placed accurately within its cohort.
