Our take

With a heavier reliance on tech and internet systems, the call for security and threat detection platforms of all kinds is on the rise. The importance of security is high in demand with the new breeds of hackers and threats that arise almost daily. Blackbird.AI is a narrative and risk intelligence platform providing a suite of solutions to comabt this.

The company is an AI-driven constellation platform offering a library of products and solutions from Media Security to its developed Risk Intelligence Engine.
