osintlens

Multilingual OSINT analysis in a single call — by Muhammed Shazin Sadhik Kunhi Parambath. Point it at a block of text — a forum post, a paste, a scraped page — and get back the language, the indicators of compromise, the named entities, and an explainable risk verdict.

import osintlens as ol

result = ol.analyze("Leaked db_pass for admin@corp.example, C2 at 45.13.2.11")

result.risk.label          # 'CRITICAL'
result.risk.confidence     # 95
result.language.code       # 'en'
result.iocs["email"]       # ['admin@corp.example']
result.iocs["ipv4"]        # ['45.13.2.11']
result.matched_keywords    # {'critical': ['db_pass', ...], 'high': ['c2'], ...}

Most OSINT tooling on PyPI does one of these things — iocextract pulls indicators, a separate library detects language, another scores risk. osintlens runs the whole triage pipeline in one call, and it does it across English, Russian, Chinese, and German text, not just English.

Install

The base install is pure Python with zero dependencies — rule-based risk scoring and IOC extraction work out of the box:

pip install osintlens

Add optional backends only when you need them:

pip install "osintlens[multilingual]"   # fine-grained langdetect + spaCy NER
pip install "osintlens[ml]"             # scikit-learn risk model
pip install "osintlens[all]"            # everything

Everything degrades gracefully. Without [multilingual], language detection falls back to a Unicode-script heuristic (still distinguishes ru/zh from Latin) and entity extraction returns an empty list — IOCs act as a dependency-free entity floor. Without [ml], risk scoring uses the rule engine. Nothing crashes because an extra is missing.

For spaCy NER you also need the language models, e.g.:

python -m spacy download en_core_web_sm

What you get back

analyze() returns an AnalysisResult:

result.to_json() serializes the whole thing.

Build a knowledge graph

Every result can emit graph-ready nodes and edges, so you can knit many documents into a shared Neo4j (or any property-graph) view — the same entity seen in two documents becomes one shared node:

graph = result.graph(document_id="post-42")
# {"nodes": [{"id": "Document"...}, {"id": "email:admin@corp.example"...}],
#  "edges": [{"from": "post-42", "to": "email:...", "type": "CONTAINS"}]}

Command line

osintlens scan report.txt                 # analyze a file, print JSON
cat paste.txt | osintlens scan -           # read stdin
osintlens scan report.txt --graph post-42  # emit graph nodes/edges
osintlens scan report.txt --ml-model risk_model.joblib

Train your own risk model

from osintlens.ml import train

train(labeled_cases, output_path="risk_model.joblib")
# labeled_cases: [{"text": ..., "entities": [...], "expected_label": "HIGH"}, ...]

The model learns over the 12-element feature vector from osintlens.featurize, so it's a drop-in replacement for the rule engine via Analyzer(ml_model_path="risk_model.joblib").

Responsible use

osintlens analyzes text you already have. It does not fetch, scrape, or route traffic, and it is intended for defensive threat intelligence, security research, and authorized OSINT. Respect the terms of service and applicable law for any source you collect from, and don't use it to profile or target private individuals.
