Founded in 2011 as political-media startup Politear, it pivoted into broader media analytics and now positions itself as a national-security intelligence company delivering AI and agentic tooling. Its platform ingests billions of open-source signals daily across 100+ languages, using machine learning, computer vision, and OCR to detect narratives, track influence, and flag emerging threats for enterprise, government, and defense customers.
