SitReps
Ground-truth, on-the-record analysis of how narratives spread - who's pushing them, where coordination shows up, and what the signal looks like behind the noise.
What is a SitRep? A situational report compiled from real-time data, using our proprietary AI to surface narratives, fake profiles, and coordinated behaviour around a specific event.
Reports are produced using Identrics' Emulator, Annex, WASPer, Kaspian, and other proprietary technology.
