How These Rankings Are Computed

Every figure is a live SQL aggregate over Legal & RegTech Intelligence Brief's own story and entity tables for this niche, never a syndicated league table or an editor-typed Top-N. Topic ranks use full-population COUNT/AVG; entity ranks count distinct story mentions above the relevance threshold in our methodology. Found a discrepancy? Email hello@getlegalbrief.com.
