# Hatchet Trace ### OSINT-driven intelligence and alerting for theft and threat investigations. **Status:** Active development · **Seeking:** investment, partnership, or acquisition ## The problem Investigators and analysts drown in open-source data. The signal — a suspect resurfacing, a stolen asset reappearing for sale, a pattern connecting separate incidents — is buried across dozens of platforms, and by the time a human finds it, the lead is cold. Manual OSINT doesn't scale, and most tools either dump raw data or hide behind enterprise price tags. ## The solution ### What it does - **Automated collection** across a wide range of public and social sources. - **Correlation engine** that links related entities, events, and listings others would miss. - **Relevance scoring** so analysts see the strongest leads first, not a firehose. - **Real-time alerting** (including chat/Telegram delivery) the instant a watched subject or asset surfaces. - **Auto-theft focus** plus general investigative and threat-monitoring use cases. - **Operator-grade privacy** — optional Tor-routed collection and encrypted credential storage, built by an operator with intelligence and OSINT tradecraft. ## Why it's different Built by practitioners with real law-enforcement, intelligence, and cybersecurity experience — it reflects genuine investigative tradecraft, not a generic scraper. The value is in the **correlation and scoring**, which improve as the system runs. ## The opportunity Open-source intelligence is a fast-growing market spanning law enforcement, corporate security, insurance recovery, and threat intelligence. Hatchet Trace is positioned as: - a **product** for investigators and security teams, - a **capability acquisition** for an OSINT, threat-intelligence, or public-safety firm. ## Contact Serious inquiries: **hatchet412@proton.me** *Public information repository — no source code, no methods, no credentials.
