About

Local Eyes on Global Threats
Mission
our mission.

We are building a dynamic and scalable situational awareness network that leverages a trusted global crowd to provide the real-time, verified insights that other systems miss.

 

Our founders saw a critical flaw in traditional situational awareness systems: small teams can't keep up with the surge of global data, an issue only amplified by generative AI.

That insight led to Crowd Threat, the first scalable, crowd-powered platform built to close these blind spots.

a scalable, global platform

Our crowd-sourced model allows us to create the first truly global situational awareness feed with consistent, real-time reporting.

crowd-sourced, verified data

We ensure you receive trusted, actionable threat data by rigorously verifying the raw feed of incidents submitted by our local contributors.

unparalleled local context

Our 'Local Eyes on Global Threats' approach provides the crucial on-the-ground context that Western-centric analyst teams miss.
