Journalism and investigative research
Verify identities, map online networks, and document open-source findings responsibly — with structured fields and a method that shows dead ends, not just hits.
Overview
How this surface runs.
Newsrooms need corroboration. Inquire helps reporters and researchers test whether an email, phone, or username ties to the platforms and exposure history a story claims.
Like our case studies, we believe empty lanes matter: seeing what did not match builds trust in what did.
What this surface actually returns.
The list below is the short version. Each item maps to a module or a control that exists in the console today.
01 — Newsroom
Sources you can check
Use Inquire to corroborate public claims — never as a substitute for editorial standards, legal review, or human sources.
Structured outputs make it easier to show an editor how you got from selector to finding, including modules that returned nothing.
02 — Method
Document the path
History and timestamps keep a research trail. Maps and timelines help explain network and geo context in a piece or internal memo.
03 — Ethics
Responsible OSINT
Lawful use only. Data removal requests are supported for individuals seeking deletion of their identifiers from our systems where applicable.
Research that holds up in the newsroom
Inquire is a verification aid — structured, labeled, and honest about empty results.
