Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) of Black Knight, Inc. and its subsidiaries (" Black Knight," the "Company," "we," "us" or "our" ) were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), and all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited), as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 22, 2019 and other filings with the SEC. Description of Business We are a leading provider of integrated software, data and analytics solutions to the mortgage and consumer loan, real estate and capital markets verticals. Our solutions facilitate and automate many of the mission-critical business processes across the homeownership lifecycle. We believe we differentiate ourselves by the breadth and depth of our comprehensive, integrated solutions and the insight we provide to our clients. Reporting Segments We conduct our operations through two reporting segments: (1) Software Solutions and (2) Data and Analytics. See further discussion in Note 12 — Segment Information . Share Repurchase Program There were no share repurchases during the first quarter of 2019. As of March 31, 2019 , we had approximately 3.8 million shares remaining under our share repurchase authorization. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year amounts to conform to the classifications used in 2019. Investments in unconsolidated affiliates and Deferred contract costs, net were previously included in Other non-current assets in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited). Revolver payments and Term loan payments were previously combined in Debt repayments in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (Unaudited). Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include the following (in millions): March 31, 2019 December 31, 2018 Cash $ 9.2 $ 9.5 Cash equivalents 2.8 10.8 Cash and cash equivalents $ 12.0 $ 20.3 As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , we did not have any restricted cash and cash equivalents. Trade Receivables, Net A summary of Trade receivables, net of allowance for doubtful accounts is as follows (in millions): March 31, 2019 December 31, 2018 Trade receivables — billed $ 135.0 $ 136.6 Trade receivables — unbilled 39.3 37.0 Trade receivables 174.3 173.6 Allowance for doubtful accounts (1.5 ) (1.3 ) Trade receivables, net $ 172.8 $ 172.3 In addition to the amounts above, we have unbilled receivables that we do not expect to collect within the next year included in Other non-current assets in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited). Billings for these receivables are based on contractual terms. Refer to Note 5 — Other Non-Current Assets . Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets Prepaid expenses and other current assets consists of the following (in millions): March 31, 2019 December 31, 2018 Prepaid expenses $ 48.6 $ 43.9 Contract assets 15.8 14.8 Other current assets 8.8 8.6 Prepaid expenses and other current assets $ 73.2 $ 67.3 Contract Assets Our short-term contract assets, including related party contract assets, are included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited). Refer to Note 4 — Related Party Transactions . Our long-term contract assets are included in Other non-current assets in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited). Refer to Note 5 — Other Non-Current Assets . There were no impairment charges related to contract assets for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates We account for our investments in unconsolidated affiliates using the equity method of accounting. We have elected to record our share of equity in earnings (loss) of unconsolidated affiliates on a one quarter lag based on the most recently available financial statements. Refer to Note 2— Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates. Deferred Revenues Deferred revenues represent our obligation to transfer products or services to our client for which we have received consideration, or an amount of consideration is due, from the client. During the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, revenues recognized related to the amount included in the Deferred revenues balance at the beginning of each period were $19.3 million and $16.8 million , respectively. Depreciation and Amortization Depreciation and amortization includes the following (in millions): Three months ended March 31, 2019 2018 Computer software $ 23.7 $ 22.0 Other intangible assets 14.5 14.1 Deferred contract costs 10.2 7.8 Property and equipment 8.5 7.5 Total $ 56.9 $ 51.4 Deferred contract costs amortization for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 includes accelerated amortization of $1.7 million and $1.5 million , respectively. Transition and Integration Costs Transition and integration costs during the three months ended March 31, 2019 primarily consisted of acquisition-related costs. Transition and integration costs during the three months ended March 31, 2018 primarily consisted of transition-related costs as we transferred certain corporate functions from Fidelity National Financial, Inc. ("FNF") and legal and professional fees related to secondary offerings by certain affiliates of Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P. ("THL"). Recent Accounting Pronouncements Leases (ASC Topic 842, Leases ("ASC 842")) In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) as well as several other related updates, which were codified as ASC 842. On January 1, 2019, we adopted this update using the effective date transition method. The reported results for the three months ended March 31, 2019 reflect the application of ASC 842, while the comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the related lease accounting standards in effect for those periods. The adoption of this update represents a change in accounting principle and resulted in the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities of $28.9 million on January 1, 2019. We elected the package of practical expedients, which permits us to leverage our prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs incurred. We also elected the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components when determining the value of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, as well as the practical expedient to exclude leases with an initial term of 12 months or less. The primary effect of adopting this update relates to the recognition of our operating leases on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited) and providing additional disclosures about our leasing activities. As of January 1, 2019 and March 31, 2019, we did not have any finance leases. Refer to Note 5 — Other Non-Current Assets and Note 9 — Commitments and Contingencies for additional disclosures related to our leasing activities. Other Accounting Pronouncements In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract . This update more closely aligns the accounting treatment of implementation costs for cloud solutions to the treatment of costs to develop or obtain internal-use software. Costs incurred during the planning and post-implementation stages are typically expensed, while costs incurred during the development stage are typically capitalized. The capitalized implementation costs are to be expensed over the term of the hosting arrangement including renewal options to the extent those options are expected to be utilized. This update also requires the capitalized implementation costs to be presented in the consolidated financial statements consistent with the presentation of the ongoing fees and payments associated with the cloud arrangement. We adopted this update on January 1, 2019 and applied its amendments prospectively. This update did not have a material effect on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) and related disclosures. In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income . This update allows for a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive earnings to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 ("Tax Reform Act"). We adopted this update on January 1, 2019 and reclassified $1.0 million from Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) earnings to Retained earnings. |

Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract] | |
Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates | Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates On August 8, 2018, an investment consortium (the “Consortium”) including Cannae Holdings, Inc. (“Cannae”), CC Capital Partners LLC, Bilcar, LLC and funds associated with THL along with other investors entered into equity commitments in connection with the acquisition of The Dun & Bradstreet Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Dun & Bradstreet" or "D&B"). Contemporaneously, Dun & Bradstreet entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") by and among Dun & Bradstreet, Star Parent, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("Star Parent"), and Star Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Star Parent ("Merger Sub"), pursuant to which, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub would merge with and into Dun & Bradstreet (the "Merger"), with Dun & Bradstreet surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Star Parent. On January 24, 2019, we entered into an Assignment and Investment Agreement (the “Agreement”) with QIA FIG Holding LLC, Cannae, and Star Parent in connection with our $375.0 million investment as part of the Consortium. On February 8, 2019, the Consortium completed the previously announced D&B Acquisition for $145.00 in cash for each share of D&B common stock then outstanding (the "D&B Acquisition"), and we funded our $375.0 million investment (the "D&B Investment") in Star Parent through borrowings on our revolving credit facility. In connection with the closing, we were issued certain limited partner interests in Star Parent, representing approximately 18.1% of the outstanding common equity of Star Parent. D&B is a global leader in commercial data and analytics that provides various services helping companies improve their operational performance. Variable Interest Entities Variable interest entities ("VIEs") are legal entities in which the equity investors as a group lack any of the characteristics of a controlling interest. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is generally the entity with the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIE's economic performance and the right to receive benefits from the VIE or the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. We have variable interests in Star Parent, but we are not the primary beneficiary of Star Parent. We are a limited partner and do not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect Star Parent's economic performance. We do not provide any implicit or explicit liquidity guarantees or principal value guarantees to Star Parent. The table below summarizes select information related to our variable interest in Star Parent: March 31, 2019 Total assets Maximum exposure Investment in Star Parent $ 375.0 $ 375.0 We do not consolidate Star Parent because we are not the primary beneficiary. We account for our D&B Investment as an equity method investment, which results in our initial investment being recorded within Investments in unconsolidated affiliates on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited). There is no equity in earnings (loss) of Star Parent included in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings and Comprehensive Earnings (Unaudited) because we have elected to record our equity in earnings (loss) of Star Parent using a one-quarter lag based on the most recently available financial statements. In the second quarter of 2019, we will begin including our equity in earnings (loss) related to Star Parent and will begin providing summary financial information for Star Parent in our Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited). |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Earnings Per Share | Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing Net earnings by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The denominator includes the dilutive effect of approximately 0.7 million and 0.4 million shares of unvested restricted shares of common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net earnings per share (in millions, except per share amounts): Three months ended March 31, 2019 2018 Basic: Net earnings $ 39.3 $ 42.7 Shares used for basic net earnings per share: Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding 147.5 148.8 Basic net earnings per share $ 0.27 $ 0.29 Diluted: Net earnings $ 39.3 $ 42.7 Shares used for diluted net earnings per share: Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding 147.5 148.8 Dilutive effect of unvested restricted shares of common stock 0.7 0.4 Weighted average shares of common stock, diluted 148.2 149.2 Diluted net earnings per share $ 0.27 $ 0.29 |

Related Party Transactions [Abstract] | |
Related Party Transactions | Related Party Transactions We are party to certain related party agreements, including certain agreements with FNF and D&B. FNF no longer has an ownership interest in us; however, FNF is still considered a related party primarily due to the combination of certain shared board members, members of senior management and various agreements. On February 8, 2019, we funded our D&B Investment. Concurrent with the closing of the Consortium's acquisition of D&B, our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") began serving as CEO of D&B. As of February 8, 2019, D&B is considered a related party primarily due to the D&B Investment and the combination of certain shared board members and our CEO. Refer to Note 2— Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates. We were party to certain related party agreements with THL until May 11, 2018, the date of an underwritten secondary offering of shares of our common stock by affiliates of THL. As a result of this offering, affiliates of THL no longer have an ownership interest in us and are no longer considered related parties. A summary of underwritten secondary offerings of shares of our common stock by affiliates of THL is as follows (in millions): May 11, 2018 March 15, 2018 February 15, 2018 Number of shares sold by affiliates of THL 12.1 8.0 8.0 Number of shares repurchased from the underwriter — 1.0 2.0 Shares owned by affiliates of THL immediately after each offering — 12.1 20.1 We did not sell any shares and did not receive any proceeds in these underwritten secondary offerings. Transactions with FNF and THL are described below. FNF We have various agreements with FNF to provide software, data and analytics services, as well as corporate shared services and information technology. We are also a party to certain other agreements under which we incur other expenses or receive revenues from FNF.

The 2018 Credit Agreement provides for (i) a $1,250.0 million term loan A facility (the “2018 Term A Loan”) and (ii) a $750.0 million revolving credit facility (the “2018 Revolving Credit Facility” and, together with the 2018 Term A Loan, collectively, the “2018 Facilities”), the proceeds of which were used to repay in full the previous term loan A facility, term loan B facility and revolving credit facility. The 2018 Term A Loan and the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at rates based upon, at the option of BKIS, either (i) the base rate plus a margin of between 25 and 50 basis points depending on the total leverage ratio of Black Knight Financial Services, LLC ("BKFS LLC") and its restricted subsidiaries on a consolidated basis (the “Consolidated Leverage Ratio”) or (ii) the Eurodollar rate plus a margin of between 125 and 150 basis points depending on the Consolidated Leverage Ratio. In addition, BKIS pays an unused commitment fee of between 15 and 20 basis points on the undrawn commitments under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility, also depending on the Consolidated Leverage Ratio. As of March 31, 2019 , the interest rates on the 2018 Term A Loan and the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility were based on the Eurodollar rate plus a margin of 137.5 basis points and were approximately 3.87% and 3.78% , respectively. As of March 31, 2019 , we had $323.5 million capacity on the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility and paid an unused commitment fee of 17.5 basis points. The 2018 Facilities are guaranteed by all of BKIS’s wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries and BKFS LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and the direct parent company of BKIS, and are secured by associated collateral agreements that pledge a lien on substantially all of BKIS’s assets, including fixed assets and intangibles, and the assets of the guarantors, in each case, subject to customary exceptions. Other Debt On April 1, 2018, we entered into a financing agreement for $32.9 million , with an imputed interest rate of 3.44% , primarily related to certain data processing and maintenance services. Quarterly payments commenced on January 1, 2019 and continue through April 1, 2020. As of March 31, 2019 , $21.9 million is included in the Current portion of long-term debt in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited). Fair Value of Long-Term Debt The fair value of our 2018 Facilities approximates their carrying value at March 31, 2019 . The fair value of our 2018 Facilities is based upon established market prices for the securities using level 2 inputs. Interest Rate Swaps We enter into interest rate swap agreements to hedge forecasted monthly interest rate payments on our floating rate debt. As of March 31, 2019 , we had the following interest rate swap agreements (collectively, the "Swap Agreements") (in millions): Effective dates Notional amount Fixed rates March 31, 2017 through March 31, 2022 $ 200.0 2.08% September 29, 2017 through September 30, 2021 $ 200.0 1.69% April 30, 2018 through April 30, 2023 $ 250.0 2.61% January 31, 2019 through January 31, 2023 $ 300.0 2.65% Under the terms of the Swap Agreements, we receive payments based on the 1-month LIBOR rate (approximately 2.50% as of March 31, 2019 ). During the three months ended March 31, 2019 , the following interest rate swap agreements expired: Effective dates Notional amount Fixed rates February 1, 2016 through January 31, 2019 $ 200.0 1.01% February 1, 2016 through January 31, 2019 $ 200.0 1.01% We entered into the Swap Agreements to convert a portion of the interest rate exposure on our floating rate debt from variable to fixed. We designated these Swap Agreements as cash flow hedges. A portion of the amount included in Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) earnings is reclassified into Interest expense, net as a yield adjustment as interest payments are made on the hedged debt. The fair value of our Swap Agreements is based upon level 2 inputs. We have considered our own credit risk and the credit risk of the counterparties when determining the fair value of our Swap Agreements. It is our policy to execute such instruments with credit worthy banks and not to enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. We believe our interest rate swap counterparties will be able to fulfill their obligations under our agreements, and we believe we will have debt outstanding through the various expiration dates of the swaps such that the occurrence of future cash flow hedges remains probable. The estimated fair values of our Swap Agreements are as follows (in millions): Balance sheet accounts March 31, 2019 December 31, 2018 Prepaid expenses and other current assets $ — $ 0.5 Other non-current assets $ 3.0 $ 6.2 Other non-current liabilities $ 10.1 $ 4.5 A cumulative loss of $7.2 million ( $5.3 million net of tax) and cumulative gain of $2.2 million ( $1.6 million net of tax) is reflected in Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) earnings as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively. Below is a summary of the effect of derivative instruments on amounts recognized in Other comprehensive earnings (loss) ("OCE") on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Earnings (Unaudited) (in millions): Three months ended March 31, 2019 Three months ended March 31, 2018 Amount of loss Amount of gain reclassified from Accumulated OCE Amount of gain Amount of gain reclassified from Accumulated OCE Swap agreements $ (6.2 ) $ (0.7 ) $ 4.7 $ (0.3 ) Approximately $0.6 million ( $0.4 million net of tax) of the balance in Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) earnings as of March 31, 2019 is expected to be reclassified into Interest expense, net over the next 12 months. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities Fair value represents the amount that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair values of financial assets and liabilities are determined using the following fair value hierarchy: • Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that we have the ability to access. • Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include: ◦ quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; ◦ quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets; ◦ inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and ◦ inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. • Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Assets are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. We believe our valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants. The use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date. The following table presents our fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in millions): March 31, 2019 December 31, 2018 Carrying amount Fair value Carrying amount Fair value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets: Cash and cash equivalents (Note 1) $ 12.0 $ 12.0 $ — $ — $ 20.3 $ 20.3 $ — $ — Interest rate swaps (Note 6) 3.0 — 3.0 — 6.7 — 6.7 — Liabilities: Interest rate swaps (Note 6) 10.1 — 10.1 — 4.5 — 4.5 — |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies Legal and Regulatory Matters In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in various pending and threatened litigation and regulatory matters related to our operations, some of which include claims for punitive or exemplary damages. Our ordinary course litigation may include class action lawsuits, which make allegations related to various aspects of our business. From time to time, we also receive requests for information from various state and federal regulatory authorities, some of which take the form of civil investigative demands or subpoenas. Some of these regulatory inquiries may result in the assessment of fines for violations of regulations or settlements with such authorities requiring a variety of remedies. We believe that none of these actions depart from customary litigation or regulatory inquiries incidental to our business. We review lawsuits and other legal and regulatory matters (collectively “legal proceedings”) on an ongoing basis when making accrual and disclosure decisions. When assessing reasonably possible and probable outcomes, management bases its decision on its assessment of the ultimate outcome assuming all appeals have been exhausted. For legal proceedings where it has been determined that a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable, a liability based on known facts and which represents our best estimate has been recorded. Actual losses may materially differ from the amounts recorded and the ultimate outcome of our pending cases is generally not yet determinable. While some of these matters could be material to our operating results or cash flows for any particular period if an unfavorable outcome results, at present we do not believe the ultimate resolution of currently pending legal proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. Indemnifications and Warranties We often agree to indemnify our clients against damages and costs resulting from claims of patent, copyright, trademark infringement or breaches of confidentiality associated with use of our software through software licensing agreements. Historically, we have not made any payments under such indemnifications, but continue to monitor the conditions that are subject to the indemnifications to identify whether a loss has occurred that is both probable and estimable that would require recognition. In addition, we warrant to clients that our software operates substantially in accordance with the software specifications. Historically, no costs have been incurred related to software warranties and none are expected in the future, and as such, no accruals for warranty costs have been made. Indemnification Agreement We are party to a cross-indemnity agreement dated December 22, 2014 with ServiceLink Holdings, LLC ("ServiceLink"). Pursuant to this agreement, ServiceLink indemnifies us from liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from the conduct of ServiceLink's business or any action, suit or proceeding in which we or any of our subsidiaries are named by reason of being a successor to the business of Lender Processing Services, Inc. and the cause of such action, suit or proceeding relates to the business of ServiceLink. In return, we indemnify ServiceLink for liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from the conduct of our business. Operating Leases We have operating leases for corporate offices, data centers and certain equipment. Our leases have remaining lease terms of up to six years , some of which include escalation clauses, renewal options for up to five years or termination options within one year . We determine if an arrangement is a lease at contract inception. Right-of-use assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments according to the arrangement. Operating lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized as of the commencement date based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. We use the implicit rate when it is readily determinable. Otherwise, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available as of the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The lease term we use for the valuation of our right-of-use assets and lease liabilities may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise those options. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized for our leases. Right-of-use assets are included in Other non-current assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited). Refer to Note 5 — Other Non-Current Assets . Lease liabilities are included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited) as follows (in millions): March 31, 2019 Trade accounts payable and other accrued liabilities $ 11.4 Other non-current liabilities 15.6 Total lease liabilities $ 27.0 As of March 31, 2019 , maturities of lease liabilities were as follows (in millions): 2019 (remaining) $ 8.9 2020 10.5 2021 5.3 2022 2.5 2023 1.1 Thereafter 0.6 Total 28.9 Less imputed interest (1.9 ) Total $ 27.0 As of December 31, 2018, minimum operating lease payments for leases with initial or remaining terms greater than one year were as follows: 2019 $ 11.1 2020 10.3 2021 5.2 2022 2.5 2023 1.2 Thereafter 0.7 Total $ 31.0 Supplemental information related to leases is as follows (in millions, except lease term and discount rate): Three months ended March 31, 2019 Operating lease cost (1) $ 3.6 Operating cash flows for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities: 2.6 Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for lease liabilities 0.7 March 31, 2019 Weighted average remaining lease term (in years) 2.5 Weighted average discount rate 4.19 % _______________________________________________________ (1) Includes short-term and variable lease costs. |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Segment Information | Segment Information ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting ("ASC 280") establishes standards for reporting information about segments and requires that a public business enterprise reports financial and descriptive information about its segments. Segments are components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available and are evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Our chief executive officer is identified as the CODM as defined by ASC 280. To align with the internal management of our business operations based on service offerings, our business is organized into two segments. Refer to Note 10 — Revenues for a description of our Software Solutions and Data and Analytics segments. Separate discrete financial information is available for these two segments and the operating results of each segment are regularly evaluated by the CODM in order to assess performance and allocate resources. We use EBITDA as the primary profitability measure for making decisions regarding ongoing operations. EBITDA is earnings before Interest expense, net, Income tax expense and Depreciation and amortization. We do not allocate Interest expense, net, Other expense, net, Income tax expense, equity-based compensation and certain other items, such as purchase accounting adjustments and acquisition-related costs to the segments, since these items are not considered in evaluating the segments' overall operating performance. Summarized financial information concerning our segments is shown in the tables below (in millions): Three months ended March 31, 2019 Software Solutions Data and Analytics Corporate and Other Total Revenues $ 243.5 $ 39.7 $ (0.1 ) (1) $ 283.1 Expenses: Operating expenses 102.8 29.8 27.4 (2) 160.0 Transition and integration costs — — 0.9 (3) 0.9 EBITDA 140.7 9.9 (28.4 ) 122.2 Depreciation and amortization 29.9 3.8 23.2 (4) 56.9 Operating income (loss) 110.8 6.1 (51.6 ) 65.3 Interest expense, net (15.0 ) Other expense, net (0.3 ) Earnings before income taxes 50.0 Income tax expense 10.7 Net earnings $ 39.3 Balance sheet data: Total assets $ 3,210.6 $ 316.6 $ 489.2 (5) $ 4,016.4 Goodwill $ 2,157.6 $ 172.1 $ — $ 2,329.7 _______________________________________________________ (1) Revenues for Corporate and Other represent deferred revenue purchase accounting adjustments recorded in accordance with GAAP.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Accounting | The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) of Black Knight, Inc. and its subsidiaries (" Black Knight," the "Company," "we," "us" or "our" ) were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), and all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. |
Use of Estimates | The preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited), as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Reportable Segments | Reporting Segments We conduct our operations through two reporting segments: (1) Software Solutions and (2) Data and Analytics. See further discussion in Note 12 — Segment Information . |
Consolidation | All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. |
Share Repurchase Program | Share Repurchase Program There were no share repurchases during the first quarter of 2019. As of March 31, 2019 , we had approximately 3.8 million shares remaining under our share repurchase authorization. |
Reclassification | Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year amounts to conform to the classifications used in 2019. |
Transition and Integration Costs | Transition and Integration Costs Transition and integration costs during the three months ended March 31, 2019 primarily consisted of acquisition-related costs. Transition and integration costs during the three months ended March 31, 2018 primarily consisted of transition-related costs as we transferred certain corporate functions from Fidelity National Financial, Inc. ("FNF") and legal and professional fees related to secondary offerings by certain affiliates of Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P. ("THL"). |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements Leases (ASC Topic 842, Leases ("ASC 842")) In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) as well as several other related updates, which were codified as ASC 842. On January 1, 2019, we adopted this update using the effective date transition method. The reported results for the three months ended March 31, 2019 reflect the application of ASC 842, while the comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the related lease accounting standards in effect for those periods. The adoption of this update represents a change in accounting principle and resulted in the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities of $28.9 million on January 1, 2019. We elected the package of practical expedients, which permits us to leverage our prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs incurred. We also elected the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components when determining the value of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, as well as the practical expedient to exclude leases with an initial term of 12 months or less. The primary effect of adopting this update relates to the recognition of our operating leases on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited) and providing additional disclosures about our leasing activities. As of January 1, 2019 and March 31, 2019, we did not have any finance leases. Refer to Note 5 — Other Non-Current Assets and Note 9 — Commitments and Contingencies for additional disclosures related to our leasing activities. Other Accounting Pronouncements In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract . This update more closely aligns the accounting treatment of implementation costs for cloud solutions to the treatment of costs to develop or obtain internal-use software. Costs incurred during the planning and post-implementation stages are typically expensed, while costs incurred during the development stage are typically capitalized. The capitalized implementation costs are to be expensed over the term of the hosting arrangement including renewal options to the extent those options are expected to be utilized. This update also requires the capitalized implementation costs to be presented in the consolidated financial statements consistent with the presentation of the ongoing fees and payments associated with the cloud arrangement. We adopted this update on January 1, 2019 and applied its amendments prospectively. This update did not have a material effect on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) and related disclosures. In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income . This update allows for a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive earnings to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 ("Tax Reform Act"). We adopted this update on January 1, 2019 and reclassified $1.0 million from Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) earnings to Retained earnings. |
