How Intelligence Engagements Work
Every target, jurisdiction, and objective is different. We don't sell packages — we scope engagements individually and quote after understanding what you actually need. Need a number first? Ask for a no-commitment ballpark — one paragraph about the target is enough, answered within 4 hours.
Intelligence work on Russian and CIS entities is not a commodity. The cost of an engagement depends on how many targets you need investigated, which jurisdictions are involved, what source depth is required, how fast you need results, and what format the deliverable takes. A sanctions exposure check on a single entity is a fundamentally different engagement from a multi-layered UBO investigation spanning three CIS jurisdictions. We quote after intake — not before.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I get a ballpark before submitting a full brief?
Yes. Send us a short description of the target and objective — even one paragraph is enough. We'll respond within 4 hours with a preliminary scope estimate and indicative timeline. No commitment required.
What if I need results faster than 5 days?
We offer expedited turnaround for urgent engagements. Express Checks deliver in 24–72 hours. For deep investigations, we can compress timelines by deploying additional analyst capacity — discuss this during the intake call.
Do you offer volume discounts for multiple targets?
Multi-target engagements are scoped as a single project, which typically results in a lower per-target cost than commissioning them individually. We'll structure the proposal accordingly.
How does ongoing monitoring work?
We set up automated and analyst-curated monitoring on your target entities. You choose the cadence — daily alerts, weekly digests, or monthly summary reports. Changes in registry data, sanctions listings, litigation status, or digital exposure trigger immediate notifications.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept bank transfers (EUR, USD, GBP, CHF) and cryptocurrency (BTC, USDT). Invoicing is available for corporate clients. Payment terms are agreed during scoping.
Can I see a sample report before engaging?
We can share anonymized sample deliverables upon request. Contact us via a secure channel and specify the type of engagement you're considering.
Is the initial consultation free?
Yes. The intake review and scoping call are always free and confidential. You only pay when you approve the scoped proposal and the investigation begins.
