WASHINGTON, DC, April 24, 2025 — Penlink, the foremost authority in AI-powered digital intelligence and open-source intelligence (OSINT) for law enforcement, national security, defense, and enterprises, announced today that it is exhibiting at the OSINT Foundation Tech Expo in May, reinforcing the company’s commitment to supporting the defense and intelligence communities by providing trusted, innovative solutions that facilitate intelligent decisions.
In the current digital landscape, the strategic use of open-source intelligence, generative artificial intelligence (GenAI), and data visualization is not only advantageous, but vital to advancing national defense initiatives. Through the use of digital intelligence and AI-powered OSINT, the DoD and Intelligence Community (IC) can strengthen their security measures to better preempt and neutralize threats to our interconnected world.
“Penlink has always focused on innovating with the latest technologies to support agencies in their protection of the public,” said Peter Weber, Chief Executive Officer at Penlink. “With a deep understanding of the challenges faced by the DoD and IC, we are uniquely positioned to aid these agencies in the fight against today’s ever-present adversaries, ensuring safety and security across our nation.”
During the event, Penlink will showcase its groundbreaking solutions, offering onsite demonstrations. Solutions include:

Leveraging the latest advancements in GenAI, CoAnalyst enables investigators to handle complex cases with ease and efficiency.

“The integration of these capabilities empowers defense and intelligence agencies to make swift, informed decisions and execute proactive threat responses,” said Weber. “By expanding our trusted partnership in the modern warfare paradigm, we can bolster the DoD and IC’s commitment to national security.”
