Smart Search is purpose-built for investigators to widen open-source searches quickly. Its powerful search features enable investigators to gather information quickly from multiple sources all at once without the complexity that comes with other OSINT tools – no analyst required.
Smart Search is built with the investigator in mind. Its straightforward approach and simple user experience, along with cost-effective pricing, can bring crucial data and insights to investigators that would have previously been out of reach or taken hours or days of work to achieve.
