Moonshot is a London-founded technology and intelligence company that maps and disrupts online harms - from violent extremism and disinformation to gender-based violence, human trafficking, and harassment of public figures. Founded in 2015 by Vidhya Ramalingam and Ross Frenett, the firm pairs data science, OSINT, and behavioral research with field interventions like its pioneering Redirect Method, which steers people searching for extremist content toward safer alternatives. It works for governments, technology platforms (Google, Facebook, Spotify), and, more recently, sports organizations protecting athletes from online abuse.
