Who is behind the analysis
The Kyrodata Editorial Team is the desk responsible for all of the site's data coverage. We bring together foreign-trade analysts, data curators, and editors who take Brazil's official numbers and turn them into narrative: context, trends, and the outliers that matter to decision-makers.
We don't republish press releases or rewrite third-party news. The data arrives automatically from official sources; the analysis — what it means — is written and signed by our team.
How each analysis is made
Our starting point is always the official figure. We automatically pull Brazil's public datasets every day and load the records into our history (coverage from 2000 to today), cross-referencing flows, countries, products, and periods.
That's where the automation ends: from the numbers, the team writes the analysis — what changed and why, set against the historical series, with the conclusions drawn. A volume jump, an off-curve price, a new destination: the reading is always ours.

Why we sign as “the Editorial Team”
Every article is collaborative work: data analysis, writing, and editing. That's why authorship is collective — the Kyrodata Editorial Team — rather than a single name.
It's the same principle as the data desks at major agencies: what matters isn't who typed the sentence, but the process that ensures the number is right and the interpretation holds. The collective byline reflects that shared responsibility.
Our sources
Every analysis starts from official, public datasets. We cite provenance openly — that's what lets any reader verify the number at its origin.
- Comex Stat / MDIC — Brazilian imports and exports by NCM, country, and month.
- BACEN — Official daily exchange rate (PTAX) for conversion and monetary context.
- IBGE — Domestic production and structural indicators that give context to the flows.
Editorial standards
- Data scope: we cover Brazilian foreign trade from 2000 through the most recent month published by the official sources. We don't fabricate estimates to fill gaps.
- Corrections policy: when an official source revises a figure, we update the analysis and record the modification date. Any error that slips through is fixed as soon as it's found.
- Commitment to official data: every number links back to its source. No proprietary estimates, no black box, no paid feed disguised as public data.
- Done by people: every analysis is written and signed by our editorial team. What we automate is the collection of official data — the reading, the context, and the conclusion are ours.
