AI Analytics

Six years

Six years observing the open internet.

AI Analytics has been operating since 2020. Below is the public-facing trajectory: when we started measuring, when the probe network expanded, when we shipped what. Internal milestones aren't listed.

2026

19 milestones
  1. Q4Writing

    94 technical writeups published

    Field guides and deep-dives across the federal data catalog and the accountability datasets.

  2. Q3Voidly

    The Detention Ledger launched — who runs ICE detention beds

    All 203 ICE detention facilities from ICE’s own statistics file — 66,161 held on an average day, last-inspection status, guaranteed-minimum bed arithmetic, and an evidence-tiered operator spine that names a private operator only where a federal award or the operator’s own SEC filing does. Built behind schema-enforced privacy gates; keyless JSON, CC0.

  3. Q3Voidly

    GridOwners launched — who owns US generating capacity

    Eleventh accountability dataset: all 27,768 operable US generators (1.38 TW at 14,189 plants) resolved to entity-level owners from Form EIA-860 2025 Early Release — operator by default, Schedule-4 ownership splits where filed (261 GW). Independent power producers (37.4%) now out-own investor-owned utilities (32.4%); FPL is the largest single owner at 40 GW.

  4. Q3Voidly

    Section 117 Ledger launched — foreign money in US higher education

    $62.4B in foreign gifts and contracts disclosed by 528 US institutions since 1981, aggregated from the Department of Education public file by institution and source country — with the anonymity built into the statute (2.9% of dollars carry a named source). Aggregate-only, zero-PII pipeline; keyless JSON, CC0.

  5. Q3Voidly

    The Shell Map launched — 38 verified ownership chains, interactive

    38 ownership chains behind the largest conduit-flagged and no-country blocks of foreign-held US land, traced through public documents with adversarial verification and a chain-by-chain defamation and privacy review. Sovereign funds behind quiet flags, blank filings resolving to documented parents, and chains that end where no record names the investors — every node sourced.

  6. Q3Writing

    95 technical writeups published

    Field guides and deep-dives across the federal data catalog and the accountability datasets.

  7. Q2Voidly

    DarkRegister — the beneficial-ownership transparency tracker — launched

    A Voidly accountability record tracking the public-access status of 31 national beneficial-ownership registers (EU-27 plus the UK, US, Ukraine, Canada) after the 2022 CJEU ruling closed public access — 25 of 31 are no longer fully open. Captures the open, CC0, PII-free GLEIF ownership graph (3.3M legal entities) as the preservable counterweight.

  8. Q2Voidly

    SpyLedger — the surveillance-industry accountability record — launched

    A Voidly section documenting the public corporate identity and government-designation status of 20 marquee spyware and mass-surveillance vendors (NSO Group, Intellexa, Hikvision, Huawei and more). Every designation is rebuilt from a primary US/EU government source and precisely typed — export control, sanction, equipment-authorization, or investment restriction.

  9. Q2Voidly

    Verboten — the Global Banned-Books Index — launched

    A Voidly section indexing book censorship worldwide: 19,283 banned or restricted titles across 119 countries and 34,987 dated, source-cited ban events, built on the CC-BY banned-books.org Open Censorship Core. Static per-country and per-title pages, a title lookup, and a keyless JSON API answer the question — is this book banned in that country, and why?

  10. Q2Data hub

    Federal Regulatory Data Hub — 208 datasets, 50M+ records, CC0 1.0

    Cross-agency regulatory catalog spanning SEC, FDA, OFAC, DOJ, EPA, CFPB, IRS, FEMA, CDC, NHTSA, FAA, CFTC, CMS, MSHA, OSHA and 40+ other agencies. Entity bridge joins every regulatory event for a company in one query.

  11. Q2Org

    Site rebuild · governance + methodology published

    Public methodology and governance pages; press kit; intel feed; full Schema.org graph; RSS / JSON syndication. Intel briefs, structured data coverage, and cross-linking across all three flagship projects.

  12. Q2Voidly

    OrganWatch launched — US organ-procurement accountability

    A sourced public-record map of the US organ system: OPO dossiers with CMS performance tiers, the OPTN/UNOS oversight structure, a 51-jurisdiction consent-law map, and the for-profit tissue industry — institution-level facts only, zero personal data. Keyless JSON, CC BY 4.0.

  13. Q2Voidly

    The reference layer — sanctions programs, information rights, privacy law

    Three law-and-authority references joined the stack: 41 OFAC sanctions programs, access-to-information statutes across 61 countries, and data-protection law across 61 countries — the law, not the people. Keyless JSON, CC BY 4.0.

  14. Q2Writing

    132 technical writeups published

    Field guides and deep-dives across the federal data catalog and the accountability datasets.

  15. Q1Data hub
