Investigative Journalism

Verify before you publish

Location verification for newsrooms. GeoInfer checks where an image was taken — useful for breaking news, conflict reporting, and an environment where AI-generated content is increasingly common.

The Value Gap

The Cost of Publishing Unverified Imagery

One misattributed image can undermine an entire investigation. Retractions are expensive — not just financially.

Editorial Credibility

Reduce the risk of publishing recycled, misattributed, or manipulated images. Visual verification adds a documented layer to your editorial process.

Faster Source Verification

Check the geographic origin of submitted images in seconds, not hours of manual OSINT work.

Conflict Zone Reach

Geolocate imagery from areas reporters can't reach. Visual-only analysis works when on-the-ground verification isn't possible.

Differentiator

Traditional OSINT takes hours.

GeoInfer takes seconds.

No Metadata Required

Works when social media platforms strip location data and sources are anonymous. No GPS, no EXIF needed.

Conflict-Zone Ready

Effective in areas with no Street View coverage, limited satellite imagery, and no physical access.

Handles AI-Edited Content

Identify location inconsistencies in AI-generated or manipulated images by comparing visual content against real-world geography.

Outcomes

What Changes

Publication confidence

Images can be independently checked against their claimed location before they reach print or broadcast.

Verification speed

Hours of manual OSINT geolocation reduced to seconds of automated visual analysis.

Source integrity

Systematic visual verification for incoming tips, citizen journalism, and social media content.

Global reach

Verify imagery from conflict zones, disaster areas, and restricted environments — without physical presence.

How It Works

How It Fits Into Your Workflow

GeoInfer connects to newsroom editorial processes as a visual verification step.

01

Source Verification

Check where an image was actually taken versus where it's claimed to be from. Especially useful for anonymous sources and citizen journalism.

02

Conflict Geolocation

Geolocate images from conflict zones, natural disasters, and humanitarian crises when physical access is limited or dangerous.

03

Fact-Checking

Detect recycled or misattributed images in news cycles. Identify when old photos are presented as current events.

04

OSINT Integration

Batch-process images from social media, messaging apps, and digital archives for systematic location verification.
