ShadowDragon develops the Horizon OSINT platform and SocialNet API, helping law enforcement, government and corporate teams collect, correlate and monitor public information for investigations.
ShadowDragon builds open-source intelligence (OSINT) software for organisations that investigate people and networks using publicly available information. Its customers include law enforcement, government, corporate security, finance, insurance and threat-intelligence teams. The firm's stated approach is to build technology by investigators, for investigators, with an emphasis on ethical and lawful intelligence practice: the platform is designed to avoid mass scraping, hacking, credential misuse and exploitation.
The company's flagship product, Horizon, is an enterprise platform that lets investigators collect, correlate and monitor public information across the full workflow, from initial discovery through to continuous analysis. It supports identity research, link analysis, unattributed searches, ongoing monitoring and real-time data, and carries SOC 2 Type II-certified security controls. SocialNet API extends the platform for identifying people, uncovering relationships and monitoring social and other public information as part of an investigation.
Engineering work spans data collection and correlation, identity research, link analysis, continuous monitoring, real-time data processing, API development and threat intelligence. Beyond the software, the company provides training, support, free OSINT resources and investigative expertise to customers working in high-stakes environments.
