Versus Palantir, I think was the intent of the question. IDK, from what I've seen they can't really do much more out-of-the-box than lots of other less-bullshitty data platforms, they're just far more aggressive about selling "consulting" services to get you all the features they told you they could do (and they can—with a bunch of custom development, just like any other platform)

I wouldn’t suggest a competitor in that line of business, because it’s not a line of business which should exist: fundamentally, it represents a firm wanting to bring in another firm to engage in its core line of business for it, because it no longer knows how to.

Well, if the firm doesn’t know how to engage in its core business, just fire the employees, close the offices, take the names off the buildings and return the capital to the owners!
