Hey!

We are Social Links, a global OSINT company with headquarters in the US. Our company develops AI-based products that empower organizations to conduct effective investigations and achieve a range of goals using open sources.

We are actively growing. And we have big ambitions. Our current goal is to become a $1B unicorn company by 2025 while building an international OSINT community.

Since the company’s foundation, we have developed as a global company and now have over 500 clients from around the world (except Russia and the CIS), including some of the largest international corporations in the B2B and B2G segments. We work with half of the law enforcement agencies within the European Union, as well as companies from the S&P 500.

Our products

We assemble massive volumes of data and deep insights from open sources in Social media, Blockchain, and the Darknet and visualize a holistic picture for data-driven decisions and investigations.

Our product line is continually being developed and we have big plans for future services.
