Frequently Asked Questions

What is 60dB Signal?
60dB Signal is a platform we're building to give visibility to organizations that prioritize impact measurement, boosting their visibility with a network of investors. Signal allows companies that have conducted an impact study with 60 Decibels to present their results prominently and access financing opportunities with funders.


What does the platform look like and what kind of information is displayed?
On Signal, each company gets their own company profile that includes their 60 Decibels impact data (see example here and the metrics included). This data includes metrics such as improvements in quality of life, access to services for the first time, and reach in terms of customer poverty. The platform offers a space where investors can see key information to evaluate alignment with their impact criteria.

What types of organizations are on 60dB Signal?

60dB Signal hosts a diverse range of organizations, built on the world's largest dataset for social impact measurement. With thousands of projects across 80+ countries, you can explore a snapshot of the incredible companies featured on Signal here.

What Data will be shared on Signal?

60dB Signal features both impact data and operational data. Impact data includes our well-known metrics such as improvements in quality of life, first-time access, and customer poverty reach. Operational data covers key indicators like total funding raised, number of customers, and employee count. Together, these insights help investors and foundations identify organizations that align with their impact and investment criteria. Rest assured, we only share non-anonymized data when we have received explicit consent from the organizations.

Join a movement to elevate the voices of those that matter most – your customers

A word from our CEO, Sasha

“We created 60 Decibels because we believed that there was a better way to listen to customers and beneficiaries, and because we wanted to make it easier for organizations that were creating outsized social impact to get noticed.

We know that data by itself will not change or save lives. It won’t lift people out of poverty or give a child an opportunity for a better life.

But with the right kind of data, in the right hands, data can do something incredible. It can catalyse an impact management revolution, enabling organizations to maximise both financial and social value.

The data we need to create this revolution is hiding in plain sight. It is the voice of the people whose lives we aim to impact.

To hear that voice, all we need to do is listen.

Join us in elevating the voices of the people who matter most.”
