About Viszlyn
Data. Visualized. Viszlyn turns big numbers into quick, readable rankings.
Viszlyn is an independent publication that ranks the world's biggest numbers, such as the richest people, the largest economies, the most valuable companies and the costliest cities, and explains what sits behind them. Every ranking identifies its data period, its source and the context needed to understand the figures.
Who runs it
Viszlyn is written, researched and published by Vedang Khamar as an independently run, one-person publication.
What you will find here
- Rankings of people, companies, countries and cities across Money, Tech and World.
- Figures, data periods, sources and methodology notes for every ranking.
- Plain-language explanations of what is counted, what is excluded and why different rankings of the same topic can disagree.
How we work
We prioritize primary and widely recognized sources, such as the International Monetary Fund for economic data and the original publisher for its own rankings. When a secondary source is used we say so, and we distinguish projections and estimates from confirmed results. Read the full process on our editorial standards and methodology page.
