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

4 milestones
  1. Q2Org

    Site rebuild · governance + methodology published

    Public methodology and governance pages; press kit; intel feed; full Schema.org graph; RSS / JSON syndication. Six rounds of site, structured-data, and SEO improvements.

  2. Q1Swarm

    Swarm SDK v0.4

    Situational Awareness, EW Coordination, Adversarial Resilience, RF Fingerprinting & Tracking. 163 new tests (465 total).

  3. Q1Coverage

    Voidly coverage hits 200 countries

    37+ probe nodes spanning every continent. 80-domain test list. 5-minute scan cadence. Cross-source verification against OONI / CensoredPlanet / IODA.

  4. Q1Tooling

    MCP server — 83 tools

    voidly-ai/mcp-server enables Claude / GPT / agent frameworks to query the censorship dataset directly.

2025

3 milestones
  1. Q4Swarm

    Swarm SDK v0.3

    Sender Keys for O(1) group encryption. Sealed Sender. Deniable HMAC mode. PKCS7 padding across all transports.

  2. Q3Swarm

    Swarm SDK v0.2

    MAVLink v2 transport adapter. PX4 / ArduPilot / MAVSDK compatibility. Message fragmentation and reassembly inside 253-byte payloads.

  3. Q2Swarm

    Swarm SDK v0.1 — initial release

    Gossip mesh routing, Double Ratchet forward secrecy, ML-KEM-768 + X25519 hybrid post-quantum key exchange.

2024

3 milestones
  1. Q4Writing

    Election cycle coverage

    Statistical anomaly detection across 47 races. Benford’s Law, ARIMA time-series, turnout modeling.

  2. Q4Writing

    Distributed VPN routing post

    ML-driven path selection across 142 entry-node IPs; traffic-morphing layer for DPI evasion.

  3. Q3Writing

    NLP at 2.4M posts/hr

    Real-time pipeline goes into production: Apache Kafka, TimescaleDB, 80 GPU NLP workers, MinHash deduplication.

2023

2 milestones
  1. Q4Open data

    OONI corpus mirrored on HuggingFace

    ooni-censorship-historical dataset published; passes 1.66M cumulative downloads over the next two years.

  2. Q2Voidly

    Voidly cross-source verification online

    Reconciler ships across OONI / CensoredPlanet / IODA. Verified-incident tier becomes the default surface.

2022

2 milestones
  1. Q3Coverage

    Probe network → 100 countries

    Vantage selection rules formalized: presence inside affected jurisdictions, ASN diversity, operator safety. Test list grows to 60 domains.

  2. Q1Voidly

    ML anomaly classifier in production

    Five interference classes (DNS, TLS, HTTP, BGP, throttling) graded with confidence scores; corroborated tier introduced.

2021

2 milestones
  1. Q3Open data

    CC BY 4.0 dataset published

    First public release of the Voidly measurement archive — committing to open data as a permanent operating principle.

  2. Q2Tooling

    Voidly probe v1

    Cross-platform Tauri desktop probe with boringtun + tun-rs. Anyone with a network can run a probe; keys never leave the device.

2020

2 milestones
  1. Q4Voidly

    First measurements collected

    Initial 6-country probe network active. The censorship dataset begins.

  2. Q2Org

    AI Analytics founded

    Operator-led collective forms around a shared belief: internet censorship should be measurable, verifiable, and citable.
