Voluntary support

CSINT Research is an independent, one-person project.

I build the site, articles, community area, and free research tools on my own. Support is optional. Using the site and joining the community will remain free. Contributions help cover upkeep, infrastructure, and new OSINT tools.

You can use every public page without supporting the project.

Membership is free and separate from financial support.

Your card details never reach CSINT and are not stored here.

What are you supporting?

Contributions pay for the work listed below.

The priority is keeping current services online and building practical research tools.

Site and infrastructure

Hosting, database, security, email, and automated data-feed costs are covered.

Sources and research

Broken links are repaired, public sources are reviewed, and new research articles are prepared.

Free OSINT and CTI tools

File inspection, threat tracking, verification, and reporting tools are developed.

Research infrastructure

Contributions fund search, source comparison, and reporting work.

Ways to help

You can contribute in three ways.

Share the site

Share a useful page with people who may need it.

Send a source or correction

You can leave a short note when you find a reliable source, an error, or missing information.

Open the contribution page

Give voluntary financial support

Support is handled on an external payment page. You decide the amount and frequency.

Independence

Support does not buy private data, closed access, priority in source listings, or influence over research findings. Findings and warnings follow the same rules for everyone.

Security reports

Found a vulnerability, broken link, or unsafe instruction?

Use email for sensitive matters. Telegram is fine for simple link and page issues.

Report by email

Your choice opens a draft in a new tab with the address and subject filled in.
