Monitoring & Intelligence
Combine AI-assisted monitoring, OSINT research, and human verification to detect repeat abuse, organize evidence, and track cases over time.
What this service helps address
The situations this work is most often brought in for.
- Repeat and returning abuse
- Material that reappears through new links, accounts, sellers, or distribution channels after earlier action.
- Detection across channels
- AI-assisted monitoring surfacing candidates across the websites, marketplaces, and social channels that matter to you.
- Open-source research
- OSINT research connecting accounts, domains, and sellers where the relationship is relevant to a case.
- Case records over time
- Evidence logs and case tracking so a long-running issue has a history rather than a series of unconnected reports.
Monitoring surfaces candidates; it does not act on its own. Every item is reviewed by a person before anything is submitted, and nothing is reported automatically.
Common situations
Examples of the kind of case this service is used for.
Material was removed once but keeps returning
A prior takedown addressed one instance, but the same content resurfaces under new links, accounts, or sellers.
You want visibility before committing to a full enforcement case
A watching brief on a known risk — a competitor, a recurring seller, a specific platform — before deciding whether action is warranted.
A known account or seller has infringed before
Ongoing visibility into a specific, already-identified source rather than a general internet-wide search.
Findings need to be organized before they become a case
Raw findings need human review and evidence logging before anything is escalated into a formal report.

Where this may appear
Monitoring is scoped to defined assets and signals — it is not a general search of the internet.
- Previously identified accounts, sellers, or sources
- Marketplaces and platforms relevant to prior cases
- Search results for defined brand or content terms
- Channels where repeat activity has occurred before
How monitoring is scoped and run
- Define assets, signals, and targetsAgree what is being watched — specific assets, known accounts, or search terms — so monitoring has a defined scope rather than an open-ended search.Output: Monitoring scope
- Collect relevant findingsAI-assisted monitoring surfaces candidates matching the agreed scope on a regular basis.Output: Findings log
- Human review of actionable findingsA person reviews what the monitoring surfaces before anything is treated as a genuine issue.Output: Reviewed findings
- Record evidence and case contextConfirmed findings are logged with the context needed to act on them.Output: Evidence record
- Escalate into the relevant protection workflowA confirmed finding is handed to the appropriate service — copyright, brand, marketplace, or reputation — rather than handled generically.Output: Escalation record
- Continue agreed monitoring and reportingMonitoring continues on the agreed cadence, with periodic reporting where scoped.Output: Periodic report
