Datashare - ICIJ

Better analyze information, in all its forms. Datashare is a self-hosted documents search software. It is a free and open-source software developed by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ). Initially created to combine multiple named-entity recognition pipelines, this tool is now a fully-featured search interface to dig into your documents. Datashare is built at the top of technologies and methods already tested with investigations like the Panama Papers or the Luanda Leaks. Seeing the growing interest for ICIJ's technology, we decided to open source this key component of our investigations so a single journalist as well as big media organizations could use it on their own documents.

SwiftRiver | Verifying and Filtering News (FOSS)

SwiftRiver is a free and open source platform that helps people make sense of a lot of information in a short amount of time. The SwiftRiver platform was born out of the need to understand and act upon a wave of massive amounts of crisis data that tends to overwhelm in the first 24 hours of a disaster. Since then, there has been a great deal of interest in this tool for other industries, such as news rooms and brand monitoring groups. In practice, SwiftRiver enables the filtering and verification of real-time data from channels such as Twitter, SMS, Email and RSS feeds. This free tool is especially useful for organizations who need to sort their data by authority and accuracy, as opposed to popularity. These organizations include the media, emergency response groups, election monitors and more. This might include journalists and other media institutions, emergency response groups, election monitors and more.
