In this video, I’m going to walk you through 11 free, beginner-friendly tools that anyone can use—no coding or payments required! Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) simply means gathering and analysing publicly available information. It’s how investigative journalists verify viral videos, how researchers geolocate images, and how cyber sleuths track flight paths or uncover hidden social media accounts. Essentially, OSINT techniques help us look beneath the surface of the internet to discover, verify, and piece together valuable insights.
I made this video because many of these tools have been extremely useful to me during my own investigations, or simple analyses, and I hope they can support your research too, whether it's verifying a video, combatting disinformation, checking out businesses around you, geolocating that perfect surfing spot or your just interested in looking at far-flung places on this planet.
With nothing more than your computer and an internet connection, you can become more informed and empowered.
