The dashboard is free to read. The full record is licensed.
AER compiles what 99 host countries publish about their US-citizen residents — permits, registrations, naturalizations, demographics — into one sourced dataset. A signed-out visitor sees the latest published year of every series, free and without an account. A licence opens every year on record, multi-year export, and the right to republish what you find. Every figure carries its government source and edition, at every tier.
| What anyone gets | Pro | Institutional | |
|---|---|---|---|
| The 99 country pages | All 99, free, no account | All 99 | All 99, org-wide |
| Data years | The latest published year | Every year on record, plus the live year | Every year on record, plus the live year |
| CSV export | — | One year per file, with source and edition headers | Multi-year ranges |
| Republishing | Cite any figure, with attribution | Charts, with credit | Charts and data, under written licence |
| Seats and billing | — | One seat | Org-wide, invoice or purchase order |
The public pages are not a demo. They carry the same figures, the same government sources and the same transparency grades as the licensed record — one year of them. What a licence adds is depth, export, and the right to reuse.
None of these are live yet. Institutional licences are priced on what exists today — these arrive as they ship, at no extra charge.
Built for the People Who Get Asked to Prove It.
Research Centers & Think Tanks
Your researchers can already read every country page. What they cannot do is build on a single year. A licence opens the full annual series across 99 countries — the depth a trend claim actually needs — with multi-year CSV export carrying source and edition headers, so a replication file survives review.
Government & Policy
The public page tells a desk officer how many Americans a country reported last year. Planning needs the decade behind it: whether the population is growing, and how firm each year's figure is. A licence opens every year on record with its transparency grade, org-wide, on invoice or purchase order.
Newsrooms & Media
Any reporter can cite a figure from the public pages — that is what they are for. A licence is for the desk that needs the series behind the figure and the right to put our charts in the piece. Pro covers charts with credit; an institutional licence covers charts and data across the newsroom.
NGOs & IGOs
Programme design needs more than the latest count: where US citizens register, how the population is aging, and where the published record goes dark. A licence opens the full series and the country profiles behind it, org-wide, with export for the annexes that have to stand up to audit.
