Tadaweb raises $20M to scale open-source intelligence platform enhanced with AI

Tadaweb S.A. today announced it secured $20 million in new funding to scale its “small data operating system,” which uses publicly available information and open source intelligence enhanced with artificial intelligence to generate security insights for enterprise businesses, law enforcement and government agencies.

Publicly available information, or PAI, refers to information found in public sources, such as print media, online platforms, social media and public records such as blogs, forums, images and videos. It’s the foundation of OSINT, or open-source intelligence, a process of collecting, analyzing and understanding the variety of signals hidden in the vast amount of information gathered to produce actionable intelligence.

Although it’s a mainstay of law enforcement, national security and defense, it has practical applications for cybersecurity intelligence and corporate security to detect and mitigate potential threats.

Founded in 2011, Tadaweb focuses on what it calls “small data,” which refers to the amount of data a human can process. It combines precision data points to provide actionable insights.

The company uses AI to augment human analysts’ small data skills with its platform’s suite of tools through third-party web tools and application programming interfaces to ingest data from PAI, commercially available information and other emerging sources.

Tadaweb said that although most OSINT platforms focus solely on automation and big data models, its platform works to distill insights out of noise using AI assistance to reduce investigation time from days to minutes. Public data produces a flood of information from a variety of sources, even with big data analysis this can produce a variety of signals that can be overwhelming, the company said.

“Our mission is to make the world safer by empowering the human mind with the right information at the right time,” said co-founder and Chief Executive Francois Gaspard. “Almost everyone is looking to AI for a solution. Our focus is on transparency, not delivering another black box. We embrace AI while ensuring our solution keeps the human in control.”

Although it did not detail them, the company said its customers include government agencies, national security and public safety organizations across Europe and the U.S. as well as private sector cyber threat intelligence and corporate security organizations.

Arsenal Growth and Forgepoint Capital International led the investment, with participation from existing investor Wendel. This funding brings the total investment in Tadaweb to $40 million, following initial backing from Wendel in 2023 and $2 million from angel investors in 2015.
