Seamless Horizons is the premier PAI discovery and knowledge environment built to empower those on the frontlines in the global fight against illicit networks. Designed by C4ADS in-house software engineers and driven by our analyst and partner needs, Seamless Horizons now houses hundreds of datasets, billions of records, and an ocean of our data resource knowledge in a one-stop shop for PAI data and resources.
Seamless Horizons provide a number of valuable tools that can help advance your discovery and analytical journey across 1.5 billion records and 1,000+ data resources curated and indexed within the system:
Single Search Bar – Provides the ability to query terms within the entirety of data housed in the platform. Simply enter your terms in the search and hit enter, the system will return any result in which your query term appeared across billions of records. As easy as this seems, advanced searching can help you discover entities more effectively, so be sure to read through the Advanced Search Guide.
Bulk Search – A powerful feature that allows you to search a list of entities or identifiers across the entirety of the data in the platform. This capability not only allows you to conduct dozens or hundreds of searches in one click, but also allows you to rerun these searches across new data in the system for continuous monitoring. For more information on this feature see the What is Bulk Search? page.
The Knowledge Wiki - where we record all information about data sourcing, C4ADS investigative methodology, and various useful PAI tools. To understand more about each feature and why we’ve included it take a look at the What is the Knowledge Wiki? page.
OCR Digitization - allows journalists and watchdogs to easily digitize scanned paper records collected on the ground across hundreds of local languages
