Rook Reports

Open-Source Intelligence
About

Rook Reports is an on-demand intelligence service. We run investigations through structured tradecraft and keep every source we touch in a permanent, graded knowledge graph. Every investigation makes the next one faster and smarter.

Our investigations cover collection, retention, scoring, and analysis as one system that remembers what it finds. Tradecraft, data integrity, and the standards for security, encryption, and ethics are first-class to how we work.

Who it's for

We work with professional investigators, small intelligence teams, corporate due-diligence functions, journalists, and strategy desks. The kind of buyer who needs analyst-grade tradecraft and a graded report — not a Gartner subscription, not a six-month consulting engagement.

How it's different

Most intelligence vendors sell either expensive subscriptions to canned reports (Gartner, Forrester) or per-hour custom research at consulting prices ($5K-$25K per engagement, months of lead time). We're built for a different shape: fixed scope, transparent pricing, hours-not-months turnaround. Every report is graded, source-attributed, and adversarially validated before delivery. Between what a machine asserts and what the record treats as true, there is a human approval gate.

How the work is graded

Every source and judgment in a brief is graded, so you can see how much weight the evidence carries. Two standards do the work. The NATO Admiralty code rates each source, and ICD 203 sets the words used for likelihood.

ICD 203 likelihood scale
Almost certainly95-99%
Very likely80-95%
Likely / probable55-80%
Roughly even chance45-55%
Unlikely20-45%
Very unlikely5-20%
Almost no chance1-5%

Source reliability
ACompletely reliable
BUsually reliable
CFairly reliable
DNot usually reliable
EUnreliable
FCannot be judged
Information credibility
1Confirmed
2Probably true
3Possibly true
4Doubtful
5Improbable
6Cannot be judged

A grade pairs the two. B2 means a usually reliable source reporting information that is probably true.

What you get in a brief

Each report is a single file that opens offline in any browser. Inside: a bottom-line-up-front summary, the key judgments, an interactive relationship graph, a chronology, a graded evidence register, an offline map when the incident is geographic, and the ACH matrix behind the conclusion.

Scope & disclaimer

Our reporting comes entirely from open sources and analytic inference. It is intelligence reporting, not legal advice or a finding of criminal liability. Where a judgment rests on inference rather than a sourced fact, the brief says so.

Our investigations run on Corvus — the autonomous OSINT platform we built. If you'd like to run it yourself on hardware you own, the self-hosted release is being prepared. Join the waitlist to know when it opens.
