Hitherstone

A small US business that does the legwork on public information and turns it into things people can use: clean datasets, short history films and puzzle books.

What we make

Public datasets

Government data, cleaned, documented and sourced, with a free sample of every set.

Coming soon

History time-lapses

Maps and places changing over the centuries, a few minutes at a time.

Coming soon

Puzzle books

Large-print sudoku and other puzzles, carefully checked to have one answer.

Coming soon

How we work

We use software, including AI tools, to gather and check the material, and a person reviews everything before it goes out. Every dataset says where its data came from and when.
