We’re an Open Source Intelligence agency, specialised in reputation defence, compliance, and brand protection. We’ve got you covered.
We check whether digital publishers meet obligations under laws like Spain’s LSSI, the EU e-Commerce Directive, and UK transparency rules.
If your adversary is attacking your credibility, we help you counterattack their vulnerabilities.
We document false or misleading claims, producing structured reports that can be used for takedowns or rectifications.
Missinformation can sometimes be a mistake. Disinformation is usually a well planned strategy.
When an outlet, influencer, or platform publishes inaccurate, misleading or harmful content, the first thing we do is to issue a formal request under press, advertising, data protection or competition standards.
At True Observer we do not act as solicitors, but we specialise in preparing clear, structured and evidence-ready dossiers that support legal teams, regulators, and platform compliance units.
This service is particularly effective when clients are facing coordinated harassment, targeted misinformation, or attempts to pressure organisations through fabricated claims.
Impersonation, lookalike accounts and unauthorised brand use can mislead audiences, damage trust, and expose organisations to legal and reputational risk.
We don’t let that happen.
For brands, creators and companies
True Observer Media Ltd. is our investigations and OSINT unit for companies, brands,
influencers and public figures. We monitor online spaces, document abuse,
disinformation and fraud, and deliver court-ready evidence bundles and strategic
advice. Our goal is simple: help organisations and high-profile individuals
protect their reputation, enforce their rights and respond to digital threats
with facts, not noise.
Training volunteers and society
True Observer Academy is our training arm, where we turn citizens and volunteers
into capable digital observers. Through practical courses on OSINT, evidence
capture and online safety, we give people the skills to recognise risks,
preserve proof and support victims. The Academy is the bridge between our
professional work and the wider public: accessible training, shared standards
and a growing community of people who know how to act when something crosses
the line.
Institutions and vulnerable victims
True Observer Foundation is our non-profit pillar. It exists to collaborate with
councils, police and public bodies on cases of online abuse, hate and harassment,
while also defending individuals and families who have no budget for legal or
technical help. The Foundation focuses on early support, evidence preservation
and liaison with authorities, so that vulnerable people are not left alone when
the internet becomes hostile.
True Observer aspires to build the world’s largest independent network of observers, dedicated to uncovering abuse in all its forms. From defamation and disinformation to breaches of compliance.
Our mission is to transform raw evidence into structured, verifiable reports that regulators, platforms, sponsors and courts cannot dismiss.
By joining our effort, you strengthen the barrier that protects society against those who manipulate facts and erode public trust.
If you want to be part of this mission, you can reach us directly or request more details below.

True Observer is the first Open-Source Intelligence agency fully dedicated to reputation management. Because there’s little like us in the market, here’s a clear, no-jargon FAQ explaining what we do, how we work, and what clients can expect.
OSINT is open-source intelligence… We combine automated collection with analyst review to document claims, timelines, and actors, preserving evidence for takedowns, corrections, or legal escalation.
No. We are a media/brand intelligence and enforcement partner.
False or misleading content, harassment/doxxing, misuse of brand assets, privacy/data leaks, and coordinated smear campaigns.
By sources tracked, languages, alert SLAs, reporting cadence, and add-ons.
Let us know what, where and when it happened and we will sort it. We’re not over priced and won’t charge you fees for asking.
Independent, informational links. No affiliation or sponsorship implied.
