Leveraging deep technical expertise.
Collaborating to engineer a safer world for all children.
Global research and development projects
We partner with LEAs, government bodies, NGOs and technology organisations to develop new capabilities that go beyond what's currently possible.
R&D as a core capability.
Research and development is central to staying ahead of the evolving threat landscape. With our highly technical team, we have the engineering depth and infrastructure to work at massive scale – including systems capable of searching billions of records in sub-second timeframes – and the flexibility to tailor solutions to specific operational requirements.
Technical capabilities accelerating progress.
Image and video processing
Advanced processing and analysis at scale, supporting the identification, classification and investigation of complex digital evidence.
OSINT & Dark Web Intelligence
Bringing together intelligence from across the open and hidden web to uncover connections, patterns and emerging threats.
Academic Research & Applied Innovation
Translating cutting-edge research into practical technologies, models and solutions that address emerging threats.
AI and machine learning
Developing and applying sophisticated models and classifiers to improve the speed, accuracy and depth of analysis.
Secure, Scalable Infrastructure
Mission-critical cloud and technology infrastructure designed to securely support high-volume, sensitive investigations at global scale.
Integrated Intelligence Ecosystem
Our research, technology and investigative expertise combine to turn discovery into practical application and operational impact.
How we work
We have a track record of successful R&D engagements with government bodies, law enforcement agencies and private technology providers. Our work is particularly focused on online child sexual exploitation, human trafficking and related crimes – areas where investigative technology can have the greatest safeguarding impact. We're also supported by funding partners including Innovate UK and NLnet, enabling us to pursue ambitious projects that advance the wider field.
Have a challenge we should be working on?
We're always looking for partners willing to push the boundaries of what's possible.
