What LINKS Analytics does

LINKS Analytics is a Netherlands-based data analytics company founded in 2009 that builds proprietary Agent-Based Modeling (ABM) software combined with machine learning to serve two distinct customer segments. Its Mira ABM platform provides institutional investors with systemic risk management, stress-testing, and early-warning analytics on portfolios and supply chains, while ClearD3 serves industrial and transport operators with dynamic pricing and capacity optimization. The underlying technology relies on a proprietary supply chain dataset covering 40+ countries and 68 industries, integrating public macroeconomic data with self-generated signals from satellite imagery, traffic sensors, and weather feeds, fed into simulation engines built around the firm's 'Graham Risk' and 'Network Risk' frameworks.

LINKS Analytics operates a flat-rate monthly subscription model with no minimum contractual commitment, targeting only the largest European financial institutions — its client base collectively manages over €550 billion in assets, with publicly cited relationships including pension funds and asset managers with AUM exceeding €30B and €50B respectively, as well as bpfBOUW. The company is privately held and founder-operated, with Taron Ganjalyan as Managing Director, and maintains a small team of 1–10 employees, with engineering operations based in Yerevan, Armenia since the 2016 DiVe initiative.

The firm has expanded its commercial surface over time: ClearD3 (2019) opened an industrial/transport vertical beyond finance, the 2020 Covid scenarios formalized stress-testing as a recurring capability, and a 2021 partnership with Triple A – Risk Finance embeds Mira ABM into ALM workflows. No external funding rounds, acquisitions, or leadership changes have been disclosed.

Core offering

LINKS Analytics builds and licenses two subscription-based software platforms powered by proprietary global supply chain data and agent-based modeling: Mira ABM, an Agent-Based Modelling platform used by pension funds, insurance companies, and asset managers for asset allocation, scenario analysis, and stress testing across 70+ asset categories; and ClearD3, a supply chain intelligence and machine learning platform used by industrial and transport companies to make pricing and capacity decisions 3-6 months forward. A ClearD3 Test Lab add-on enables randomized A/B testing of pricing impact before full rollout.

Product overview

LINKS Analytics offers two core products: Mira ABM (Agent-Based Modelling platform) for financial institutions to perform asset allocation, scenario analysis, and stress testing; and ClearD3 (supply chain intelligence platform) for industrial and transport companies to improve pricing and capacity decisions. The ClearD3 Test Lab add-on enables randomized controlled testing of pricing decisions. Both platforms leverage supply chain relationships and machine learning to process macroeconomic and industry-specific data for forecasting.
