Abrimos.info

What Abrimos.info does

Abrimos.info is a Mexico-based, virtual and distributed for-profit organization that builds digital infrastructure, research, and training products for transparency and democracy across Latin America. Its core technology is TeseoETL, a modular ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) platform that automates ingestion, transformation, and publication of public data from heterogeneous sources, with specialized features for web scraping, OCDS-compliant public procurement monitoring, corruption red-flag detection, and text-based AI classification. On top of TeseoETL, the company operates three live public platforms: pidala.info (search and alerting across 8+ million information requests on Mexico's National Transparency Platform), sociedad.info (public procurement and beneficial-ownership monitoring, including a Guatemala site that logs 190,000+ monthly visits), and gobernantes.info (verified historical electoral and elected-officials data across Mexico, Colombia, and Argentina).

The company serves three primary segments: governments and public institutions (Government of Guatemala, Municipio de Puebla, INAI, Chilecompra), civil society and NGOs (Oxfam, MUCD, Fundación Ciudadanía y Desarrollo, Datasketch, Wingu, Red Ciudadana, Center for Progressive Reform), and a smaller set of enterprises and allied civic-tech projects (Dexis, API Electoral, Me Representa, Candidaturas.mx). Its revenue model combines TeseoETL licensing and self-service deployment (source code, containers, documentation) with a heavy mix of professional services — custom implementation, integration, technical support, training, and investigative research consulting. Distribution runs through direct enterprise sales (Calendly-driven demos), self-service open-source deployment, and NGO partnership channels, with marketing amplified by high-credibility partners such as Google News Initiative and the Open Contracting Partnership. The organization is founder-controlled, with four co-founders and external advisors covering journalism, data engineering, technology, human rights, and data justice.

Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Open Contracting Partnership: Core strategic ally of Abrimos.info; sets and promotes the OCDS standard Abrimos ingests. Comparable as a transparency/anti-corruption organization operating across Latin America and globally, with overlapping buyers (procurement observatories, civil society).
• OCCRP (Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project): Global investigative-journalism network with strong Latin American presence that uses public records and cross-border data to expose corruption. Comparable in mission and in combining data infrastructure with investigative journalism, but at much larger scale.
• OpenDataSoft: Commercial open-data portal and ETL/management platform for governments and enterprises. Comparable as an ETL/enablement layer for open-data publishing, with overlapping buyers (government agencies, NGOs) — though it is broader and subscription-SaaS rather than custom-built for anti-corruption.
• Open Knowledge Foundation (CKAN): Global open-data NGO operating CKAN, the most widely adopted open-data management platform. Comparable because both Abrimos.info and CKAN enable government and civil-society data publishing, scraping, and integration — though CKAN is broader and not specialized for anti-corruption red flags.

Direct peers

• OjoPúblico: Peruvian investigative journalism outlet combining data journalism and corruption investigations across Latin America. Comparable in journalistic methodology and cross-country transparency work; differs by being primarily a newsroom rather than a data-infrastructure vendor.
• Poderopedia: Latin American civic-tech organization that publishes structured databases on public officials, money flows, and conflicts of interest. Closest comparable peer: same region, same mission (democracy/transparency), data-driven verified databases — Abrimos's gobernantes.info and Poderopedia occupy adjacent niches.

Emerging players

• Chequeado: Argentine fact-checking and data-journalism organization that combines structured public-data analysis with journalistic output. Comparable as a LatAm transparency/data-journalism organization; differs by emphasizing misinformation rather than procurement/electoral data.
• Code for All (Code for Mexico / Code for Guatemala): Network of civic-tech brigades building open-data and transparency tools for governments and citizens, including directly in Mexico and Guatemala. Comparable because they build competing local data platforms on top of open government data — partial overlap with sociedad.info and pidala.info.

Regional players

• CIPER Chile: Chilean investigative journalism center focused on public-interest reporting using data and document analysis. Comparable in mission (transparency, accountability) and methodology (data-driven investigative work); differs as a single-country newsroom rather than a multi-country data platform.
• Cuestión Pública: Colombian investigative journalism outlet focused on transparency and accountability using public-data analysis. Comparable in mission and regional focus; differs in being single-country (Colombia) and primarily editorial rather than a technology vendor.
