Nobody knows how many there are. We count them.
One full count per market. Every figure carries its date, every method is published, every limitation is written out in the open. A new market every month. The count is here; the scope that concerns you is set in the market size calculator.
Each market's count sits on its own page, free to reuse, including commercially, as long as you cite Scalon and the survey date.

Tell us which market you care about.
The schedule moves at one market a month. It is nowhere near covering everything, and its order is not final. The same form serves both cases: if the market already has a date, you are notified the day it is published; if it is not on the list, what you write here helps us decide which one we count next.
- A market already scheduled: you receive the count when it goes live
- A market not on the schedule can be added, and a scheduled one can be moved up
- The published count stays public and free
