Introducing DeepDive: evolution from Search Engine to Knowledge Engine

Let’s face it, who has the time to sift through lots of search results to find the answers they’re looking for? Especially when these days, we should all be working smart, not hard, and tasking AI to do this sort of work for us.  

We're proud to announce the launch of DeepDive, a groundbreaking AI-powered knowledge engine that represents the natural evolution of search. DeepDive is a knowledge engine that doesn't just find information but understands it, organises it, and delivers tailored insights.

Traditional search engines excel at what they were designed for: delivering long lists of potentially relevant links based on keywords. And this is often where the real work begins.

Do you have a voice at the back of your mind telling you that you shouldn’t…  

• have scores of browser tabs open, wading through search results? 
• be manually reading and extracting information from each page?
• copy and paste findings into a document to make sense of it later?
• wrack your brain to remember connections between disparate pieces of information?

 If any of the above feels all too familiar, then DeepDive is an AI superpower that re-imagines your approach to investigations and due diligence.   

Designed for Enhanced Due Diligence and investigation professionals

Over the last eighteen months we’ve built DeepDive with feedback and input from MLRO’s, investigative journalists, financial crime fighters, EDD experts, and the law enforcement, intelligence and security communities. 

Here’s what work looks like for compliance analysts and investigators when they use a knowledge engine instead of a search engine… 

The natural evolution is clear: from search engine to knowledge engine. 

DeepDive: The Knowledge Engine

DeepDive offers five core capabilities that work seamlessly together:

1. Advanced Search– Our simple search UI executes complex, multi-language, alphabet and browser queries, tailored to the geographic scope of your investigation.
2. Natural Language Processing– Aggregates, processes, and analyses vast amounts of data from hundreds or thousands of sources in any language.
3. Entity Resolution– Filters out false positives, ensuring that only relevant sources linked to the correct subject are retained.
4. Body of Knowledge– Our AI-driven prompt engineering extracts key statements, assesses source credibility, and cross-references findings to build a structured intelligence framework, with full citations.
5. Generative AI Report & Chatbot– Synthesises the Body of Knowledge into comprehensive reports, revealing key insights such as known associates, locations, business links, sources of wealth, political connections, and criminal activity.

How DeepDive builds on the foundational capability of LLMs

While general AI assistants like ChatGPT and Claude excel at general knowledge tasks, DeepDive is purpose-built for EDD and investigations. DeepDive actively searches across multiple public and private sources, and structures knowledge with proper citations. 

Unlike general-purpose LLMs, DeepDive employs sophisticated entity resolution algorithms specifically engineered for investigative contexts. When researching 'John Smith,' DeepDive doesn't just return all mentions of that name. It intelligently disambiguates between different individuals sharing the same name by analysing contextual markers, geographical indicators, professional histories, and relationship networks.

It's the difference between having a helpful generalist and employing a specialised investigative team powered by AI.

 Join the knowledge (r)evolution

The current way that investigations use Publicly Available Data (PAI) is time-consuming, and often limited by human capacity to process information at scale. Analysts typically spend more time collecting and organizing data, leaving precious little for actual analysis and informed decision making.

Meanwhile, valuable connections between disparate data sources often remain undiscovered simply because no human could reasonably process so much information.

Here’s what the MLRO of an investment bank said after their beta testing,  

Just as search engines revolutionised information retrieval compared to physical libraries, our vision is a world where intelligence professionals spend less time on mechanical searching and more time on applying their human judgment. Insights that once took days, can emerge in minutes, and where crucial connections are never missed due to information overload.

Hello world, we’re DeepDive
