OSINT Radar exists because the alternative — bookmark folders, stale awesome-lists, and dead links mid-investigation — wastes the one resource investigators never have enough of: time.
An OSINT workflow and evidence workspace: guided investigative paths, pivot maps between leads, and an exportable case file — built on a library of 340 verified tools across 21 categories. Every entry is tested, categorized, tagged, and re-verified on a rolling schedule.
Investigators, journalists, security analysts, researchers, and anyone doing lawful open-source research. Workflows support beginners; dense metadata and filters serve practitioners who already know what they're looking for.
Most tool lists are write-once: they grow, rot, and mislead. OSINT Radar is maintained by a practitioner who uses these tools — which means dead links get noticed, and bad tools get cut before they break a workflow mid-case.
Inclusion is editorial, not automatic. A tool earns its place by being useful in real investigations, reasonably safe to use, and honest about what it does. Paid tools are included when they're genuinely best-in-class — but free and open-source alternatives are always surfaced alongside.
Automated health checks run against every link; failures are flagged on the tool's card. On top of that, each tool gets periodic manual review: does it still work, has pricing changed, has it been acquired or abandoned? The verification date on every card tells you exactly how fresh the record is.
OSINT is a method, not a license. This workspace is built for lawful, ethical research — and the workflows are written to keep harm-avoidance in the path, not in the fine print. Read the full responsible-use guidelines for the standards we expect.
