About The OSINT Pattern

The OSINT Pattern produces forensic investigations using exclusively open-source data. Every contractor, every financial flow, every voting record cited in our work can be independently verified through public sources.

Our investigations span two workstreams: The Pattern traces how public infrastructure money is captured by a concentrated network of contractors, financiers, and offshore structures. A80/L.48 holds nations to the moral and legal standards they set for themselves when they voted to condemn slavery.
