Built for think tanks and research
Geopolitical intelligence for think tanks and research institutes
A structured, continuously updated open-source corpus for research teams that publish analysis, policy papers and briefings.
Overview

Intelrift collects news from curated sources every 5 minutes and organises it into AI-enriched clusters with summaries, entities and timelines. Research programmes can follow their regions and topics, revisit how a development evolved, and use Spectre to explore the corpus and prepare drafts. Every cluster keeps its links to the original sources, so findings remain traceable.
01 — Problems we solve
- 01Research staff spend weeks assembling and cleaning news datasets by hand
- 02Programmes covering different regions work from disconnected sources
- 03Reconstructing how a situation evolved means going back through scattered archives
- 04Turning ongoing monitoring into timely publications is slow
02 — Key capabilities
Capabilities for your team’s daily work
Structured corpus
Deduplicated, clustered and enriched developments with entities and topics, ready to filter by region and theme instead of starting from raw articles.
Timelines and history
Follow how a cluster and its actors evolved over time, and compare current developments with earlier ones held in the corpus.
Assisted drafting with sources
Spectre helps summarise, compare and outline from the corpus, keeping references to the sources so researchers can check and cite them.
03 — Use cases
How teams use it
Rapid-response commentary
After a major election or summit, a programme lead reviews the relevant clusters, the actors involved and the regional reactions, and uses Spectre to outline a short commentary. The team adds its own analysis and publishes while the topic is still current.
Background research for a policy paper
A researcher preparing a paper on a regional conflict reconstructs its recent evolution from the corpus: key developments, entities and timeline, each linked to the original sources. The collection phase is shortened and the team focuses on the argument.
04 — Getting started
How it works
Demo with your team
A 30-minute session around your countries, sectors and use cases, so you see Intelrift working on what matters to you.
Define your scope
Choose the countries, regions, actors and topics each team follows, and set alerts on them.
Build it into the routine
Daily briefing, Spectre AI queries and structured assessments to prepare reports and leadership meetings.
05 — Why Intelrift
What it brings to the organisation
Signals in minutes, not days
Curated sources ingested every 5 minutes, with semantic clustering that groups related developments before they reach the headlines.
Operational from day one
A web platform with nothing to install and team plans that grow with usage. Analysts, managers and leadership work from the same shared picture.
AI built into the analysis workflow
Spectre AI works over the full intelligence corpus: it answers questions, tests hypotheses and drafts assessments that your team reviews and signs off, with references to the sources.
