Optional add-ons · stack with this bundle
$10/mo · updates as we ship them

Skills that stay current.

Buy OSINT Foundations once to own it, frozen at this edition. Add the Update Subscription ($10/mo) and every revision to everything you own lands on your machine as we ship it — new case law, new platforms, new tactics. Cancel anytime; downloads stay yours.

How it works
$149 one-time · tool access

Give the agent real tools.

36 pre-vetted MCP servers (Maigret, Shodan, Wayback, EdgarTools, Etherscan, Volatility, +30 more) wired into Claude Code / Desktop / Cursor / Windsurf so your agent actually runs the tools — not just suggests them.

What's in the toolkit
$100 on its own · multi-agent

Run agents in parallel.

Orchestrator.md — one file that makes an advanced LLM automatically spin up multiple agents at once (people, businesses, case-facts review, report writing) and merge them into one case file. Free with the all-bundle package, or $100 on its own.
