Built for civilian investigators.
Five buyer audiences, five playbooks. Pick the one that sounds like your work — each page covers what the team actually needs, how Tracelight fits, and what we're honestly not.
You're either solo or a small shop. The legacy OSINT vendors aren't built for you — they're built for police departments and three-letter agencies. Tracelight is self-serve, citation-anchored, and priced for civilian investigators.
You publish a piece, you stake your byline on it. The signals you wish you'd checked are exactly the ones that surface in the inevitable correction or retraction email. Tracelight runs the OSINT pass for you — fast — and gives you the audit trail you'll need three months later.
By the time the QoE comes back, the deal is half-priced in. The signals worth catching are the ones you can catch in week one — before you've spent budget on outside diligence. Tracelight runs the OSINT sweep on a target and its principals in under 2 hours per target.
The signals that nuke a fraudulent claim — the gym selfie three days after the alleged disability event, the new business filing under a 'unemployed' claimant — are public. The hard part is finding them quickly and documenting them defensibly. Tracelight is built for that workflow.
Your team runs lean. You're handling executive protection, vendor risk, brand protection, and the occasional pre-employment exception case — with a 3-5 person team and a backlog of platform integrations. Tracelight is the OSINT layer that integrates with what you already have.
Cold-case work is mostly waiting — for a tip, a DNA hit, a new witness. The slow part is the periodic re-scan: has anything surfaced about this name, this nickname, this old phone number, this aged photo? Tracelight runs the re-scan for you on a schedule, surfaces what changed, and produces a citation-anchored summary your investigator can put in the file.
