The Intelligence Difference:
Flashpoint vs. The Status Quo
Status Quo
❌ Information is scattered across dozens of global networks (social media, apps, illicit forums), making it impossible to capture critical intelligence.
❌ Practitioners spend hours manually searching networks, translating foreign language posts, and sifting through irrelevant data, leading to delayed insights.
❌ You know something is happening, but you lack the geographic data to understand its proximity to your assets or executives.
❌ Teams struggle to keep up with the volume of threats, losing the bandwidth to conduct deep analysis or produce reliable threat assessments.
❌ Without proactive monitoring and real-time alerts, teams are forced into a reactive cycle, managing incidents after they impact personnel or assets.
✅ Gain a single point of access to an extensive range of global open-source data, eliminating blind spots and information gaps.
✅ Integrated AI summarizes discussions, provides search recommendations, and translates over 100 languages, condensing hours of manual research into seconds.
✅ Define, search, and monitor custom geographic boundaries, delivering real-time, context-rich data to validate and prioritize threats where your assets or executives are located.
✅ Intuitive functionality, analyst support, and ready access to expert Finished Intelligence serves as a force multiplier, freeing your team for high-impact tasks.
✅ Near real-time data and granular, highly customizable alerts ensure you are aware of threats as they unfold, enabling timely, decisive action based on an extensive range of data sources.

AI THREAT INTELLIGENCE
Accelerate Investigations
Investigate a location, an event, or a person, surfacing the posts tied to a specific place and time, or building a profile on a person of interest in seconds. Search or translate across 100+ languages, so language isn’t a barrier to piecing together what happened.
GEOSPATIAL INTELLIGENCE
