Independent
Intelligence

Osinto has provided intelligence to industry leaders across three continents since 2019. Today we run two practices - Investigations & Intelligence and AI Evaluations - both resolve evidence to primary sources and plainly state what can be trusted.

Two practices
One approach

I

Investigations & Intelligence

Tracking events, mapping relationships, verifying claims.

Putting over two decades of investigative expertise to use on your commercial intelligence tasks. Tracing capital flows, revealing structures and monitoring fast-moving markets.

II

AI Evaluations

Learning to trust machine intelligence.

We've been working with AI for twenty years and can see through today's hype to tomorrow's practical use cases. What work can we trust AI with today? What hardware does it run on? How much does it cost?

We build and run tooling in-house, using a knowledge graph substrate to make sense of projects and markets, attaching provenance to every node and edge. Cloud Empire is our platform; Knowledge Graph Intelligence (KGI) is the discipline behind it.

Small
by design

We make no apologies for being a small team. We combine three decades of commercial experience with a ruthless ability to prioritise and a ferocious work ethic. High proficiency in productivity enhancing tools plus an outstanding network of collaborators (brought in on a per-project basis) enables us to deliver results that belie a consciously conservative headcount.

Our journey
so far

  1. 2019

    Osinto launches

    Founded in London. Aerospace, aviation and commercial space intelligence - early focus on electric and hybrid propulsion technologies and drones / UAVs.

  2. 2021

    Co-publish whitepaper

    We co-publish an Advanced Air Mobility ecosystem whitepaper together with Lufthansa Innovation Hub, proving the novel insights Cloud Empire market mapping can deliver.

  3. 2023

    Beyond aerospace

    Engagements widen into AI data centre infrastructure, battery cell chemistries and novel aerospace materials. In-house research begins on acoustic detection and edge compute.

  4. 2025

    Building at the frontier

    Applied research into neural network training, acoustic data labelling and dual-use sensing.

  5. 2026

    Investigations + AI Evaluations

    We formally launch a second practice - AI Evaluations - alongside our investigations and intelligence work. Both are driven by the same provenance-first approach.
