Tadaweb has secured $20 million to scale its Small Data Operating System for publicly available information (PAI) and open-source intelligence (OSINT). The software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform is used by defence, national security, public safety, cyber threat intelligence and corporate security organisations across Europe and the U.S to boost the efficiency of analysts and investigators by reducing time to insight from days to minutes.
Accelerating PAI and OSINT analysis productivity
PAI is information found in public sources, whether in print media, online platforms, social media, public records, websites, blogs, forums, imagery, and videos. OSINT refers to the process of collecting, analysing, and disseminating publicly available data points to support decision-making. OSINT is estimated to account for between 80 and 90% of information-gathering activities carried out by law enforcement agencies and other government entities.
Being able to rapidly analyse PAI offers public and private sector organisations access to accurate and actionable information in markets frequently disrupted by political turmoil and economic instability. However, information overload can overwhelm even the most well-resourced organisations, making it increasingly difficult for analysts and end users to quickly surface the most valuable insights and make critical decisions.

Putting humans’ tradecraft first with a Small Data approach
Small Data refers to the amount of information that a human can process, combining precision data points to get the right answer. Tadaweb augments human analysts’ Small Data skills with an Operating System enhanced by AI that brings together a suite of products to integrate seamlessly with third-party web tools and APIs, ingesting data from PAI, commercially available information, and emerging sources.
While most solutions focus solely on automation and Big Data, Tadaweb flips the model, with a solution that reduces investigation time to insight from days to minutes. This problem is widely understood in the market, and thus Tadaweb is trusted and adopted by analysts of varying levels of expertise.
