ChapsVision acquires Owlint, the OSINT specialist for collecting and processing digital footprints on the Web

ChapsVision, a specialist in the sovereign processing of massive and heterogeneous data, announces the acquisition of Owlint, an innovative start-up specializing in Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT). Owlint collects and analyzes data from the Web, assesses a person’s digital footprint and identifies cyber risks with remarkable precision.

Suresnes, October 5, 2023 

Open-source intelligence (ROSO / OSINT) is an investigative practice increasingly used to map a digital environment and anticipate the threats to which it is exposed. 

The acquisition of Owlint is an important milestone in ChapsVision’s drive to consolidate this market, in order to create a credible, international player capable of reassuring its customers and becoming their valued partner in the use of these sensitive technologies.  Over the past two years, the group has gradually enhanced its portfolio of solutions with economic and strategic intelligence solutions such as AMI EI, Qwam and Geotrend. Owlint, with its expertise in targeted OSINT, will complement these capabilities and integrate naturally with ChapsVision’s Argonos platform for processing massive, heterogeneous data, to serve use cases for both companies (B2B / Business to Business) and government services (B2G / Business to Government). 

Olivier Dellenbach, CEO & Founder of ChapsVision, was immediately attracted by Owlint’s innovative capabilities: “From our first collaboration on projects for the banking and insurance sector, our technological synergies were obvious. I quickly invited them to join us, to help create a European leader in this field.”

“Olivier’s vision and determination to make it a reality motivated us to join this major project, which shares our deep commitment to preserving European data sovereignty,” adds Marc Rénier, Co-founder and COO of Owlint.
