OPEN-SOURCE INTELLIGENCE / PUBLIC-RECORD METHOD

Everything public,
nothing guessed.

We compile open-source intelligence on companies, individuals and digital assets — corporate structure, beneficial owners, sanctions exposure, on-chain footprints, public litigation, and the people behind the names. Every claim is sourced. Every source is cited. If we cannot reproduce it from the public record, we do not write it.

USE CASES

Who orders, and why.

ANONYMISED · NO CLIENT NAMES · NO CASE DETAILS
▸ M&A · DUE DILIGENCE

The pre-acquisition screen.

Acquirers ask us to vet a seller's beneficial owner before signing. Typical scope: parallel holding structures, hidden affiliates, undisclosed exposures the data room missed. Delivered ahead of close, in time to renegotiate or walk.

Outcome — a structured report with cited findings and risk grading.
▸ COUNTERPARTY · COMPLIANCE

The counterparty review.

Compliance teams ask us to check a prospective counterparty before onboarding — UBO chains, licensing verification, sanctions exposure, infrastructure overlap with previously-flagged entities. Used to support — not replace — internal KYC.

Outcome — supplementary research that surfaces what blockchain analytics and sanctions screens miss.
▸ INVESTIGATIVE · JOURNALISM

The funding chain.

Journalists and investigative outlets ask us to reconstruct ownership and funding chains across registries. Typical work: tracing layered corporate structures across jurisdictions, registry by registry, with every step citable from the public record.

Outcome — a reproducible chain that survives editorial legal review.
▸ WEB3 · TREASURY

The wallet behind the brand.

DAOs and treasury councils ask us to vet service providers and grant recipients. Typical scope: corporate identity resolution, on-chain treasury flows, exposure to flagged mixers or sanctioned addresses.

Outcome — a basis to engage, negotiate, or decline — with receipts.

▸ INTAKE / CASE BRIEF

Tell us what you need to know.

▸ BRIEF QUALITY = FINDINGS QUALITY. The more precisely you describe what you have and what you need, the deeper the report goes — and the faster. Our own case data is blunt about it: when the brief carries exact identifiers (registration numbers, names in original script, known aliases, addresses, wallets, and above all jurisdiction), under 10% of the work goes to ruling out the wrong person or entity. When it doesn't, that figure has run as high as 90% — effort spent untangling namesakes and chasing hypotheses instead of building your findings. Every detail you add here is time and depth moved from guesswork onto the target.

▸ CRITICAL FOR SPEED. Jurisdiction decides which registries, courts and sanctions bodies we open first. Without it we must fan out across dozens of jurisdictions blindly, which can add days to turnaround. If you genuinely don't know, write "unknown" and give us any hint (language, phone code, city, currency) — a hint still narrows it.

↳ A case-ID and USDT-TRC20 invoice will be returned to your contact channel within 24h. Work begins on confirmed payment.

FAQ

Common questions.

IF IT ISN'T HERE — ASK BY EMAIL.

Most questions we answer over [email protected] within 24h. Below — the recurring ones.

[email protected]
Is what you do legal?
Yes. We work exclusively with publicly-available information — corporate registries, court records, regulators, archives, on-chain data, press. Breach data is used only to screen whether an identifier appears in a known leak — never to access anything. We do not hack systems, impersonate people, or buy private data.
Will my request stay confidential?
We do not run user accounts. Intake is via email or encrypted messaging; case-IDs are randomised. We make best efforts to delete case metadata within 90 days and deliverables within 14 days. We never disclose client identity or case details to third parties, except where compelled by lawful process.
Why USDT-TRC20 only?
Low fees, fast settlement, predictable USD value — and it is the rail most of our clients already prefer for confidentiality on their side. We do not accept cards, BTC or privacy coins. Every case is invoiced to a fresh deposit address, issued in writing with your case-ID. Invoiced fiat settlement will be available on request once incorporation completes.
Will the subject know they are being researched?
No. Collection is strictly passive — we never contact the subject, their colleagues or their network, never request access, never send anything that could tip them off. If a check cannot be done passively, it is reported as a gap, not attempted anyway.
Do you recover stolen crypto?
No — and be wary of anyone who promises to. We do tracing, attribution and evidence packaging that counsel or law enforcement can act on. We do not recover funds, do not take a percentage of any recovery, and will never contact you first offering to. Anyone messaging you in our name with a recovery offer is an impersonator.
Can I use the report in court or in a regulatory filing?
Our reports are research products. They are commonly used to brief counsel, who then prepare admissible evidence based on or supplementing our findings. We do not file expert-witness statements ourselves and do not represent our reports as admissible evidence — admissibility is a procedural question and your counsel's call.
What's your turnaround?
Surface from 24 hours · Profile from 4 days · Deep Dive from 10 days. Rush handling is possible for an additional fee. Custom scopes are quoted within 24 hours.
Can you find a person who doesn't want to be found?
Sometimes. If a target has clean OPSEC, no public corporate roles, no court history and no leaked accounts, even thorough open-source work will tell you exactly that. We never invent. The deliverable always states confidence levels and gaps — a verified clean screen is a result, and it is documented as one.
Can I use a report to screen a job candidate or tenant?
No. 0S1NT is not a consumer-reporting agency and our reports are not consumer reports. They must not be used for employment, tenancy, credit or insurance decisions, and we decline requests with that purpose.
Who is actually behind 0S1NT?
An independent analyst practice, currently pre-incorporation. Before you pay anything, the engagement confirmation names the responsible lead analyst and the applicable terms — you can walk away at that point with no obligation. We don't publish identities on a public page for the same reason our clients don't.
Do you take government work?
We accept compliant private-sector and journalistic work. Government engagements are evaluated case-by-case and accepted only via formal written contract — not the public order form.
Do you offer monitoring or recurring reports?
Yes. We offer recurring research on existing subjects on a quarterly or on-demand basis. Pricing is bespoke and depends on scope. Available after a first engagement.
