In criminal investigations, every second counts
That’s why we built Marketplace Search and Insights. Developed in collaboration with national and international law enforcement agencies, this dashboard gives investigators access to pre-aggregated intelligence on the most active markets and vendors – making it easier to focus on local or mission-specific threats.

Get a jump start on your investigations with insights automatically gathered by the Searchlight platform and our threat intelligence team. Access background on markets and vendors, preferred payment methods, DNS records, and a curated list of known admins and staff –helping investigators of all levels conduct more informed dark web investigations.
Speed up vendor attribution
The vendor dashboard gives security teams access to the same powerful search tools and marketplace data, including OSINT and PGP keys filters allow you to track threat actors across forums. You can also upload and search for a vendor’s profile photo to find where else it has been used, helping build a robust case to unmask the criminals behind their aliases.
