For years, threat intelligence was a high-cost, high-commitment game. If you wanted threat intel feeds or monitoring, you had to:

  • Sign a 12- to 36-month contract
  • Deploy complex tools that needed dedicated analyst teams
  • Pay for stale feeds focused on atomic IOCs with little actionable context
  • Accept limited coverage—especially when it came to non-English sources

In 2025, that model feels more like a legacy burden than a modern solution.

Today, the cyber threat landscape evolves in real-time. So why should your threat intelligence come with delays, lock-ins, and red tape?

That's where we come in.

Threat Intelligence Should Be Easy to Use. And Easy to Leave.

We built our AI-powered Threat Landscape Monitoring platform to be the opposite of the legacy experience.

Instead of bloated deployments and long sales cycles, we offer:

  • Simple monthly subscriptions – no lock-in, no sales drama
  • Instant access – get up and running in minutes, not months
  • AI-powered context – not just raw IOCs, but meaningful insights
  • Multilingual coverage – global intel, translated and ready
  • Low overhead – no large analyst team required to extract value

You don't need a team of experts or a massive budget to get enterprise-grade threat intelligence. You just need the right platform.

The Hidden Costs of Legacy Threat Intelligence Vendors

Let's be real: the traditional threat intel market wasn't built for agility. It was built for big enterprises with big budgets and big teams.

Here are some of the common complaints we hear from security leaders making the switch:

🔴 Analyst-heavy workflows

Legacy tools assume you'll assign a team to manage intel feeds, vet signals, and correlate context manually. That's slow, expensive, and unrealistic for most modern security teams.

🔴 Rigid contracts & deployments

Want to trial it for a month? Good luck. Most legacy vendors still operate on annual (or worse, multi-year) contracts—with deployments that take weeks or months to get off the ground.

🔴 Weak context, noisy alerts

Many tools focus on atomic indicators—IP addresses, domains, hashes—with little or no context. You get a firehose of alerts but no clarity on what matters.

🔴 Limited language support

Global threats often originate in non-English forums, apps, and channels. Yet many legacy platforms are English-only, creating critical blind spots in your visibility.

A Better Way Forward

Threat intelligence should be agile, contextual, and accessible—not something you dread renewing each year.

Our platform delivers:

  • 🚀 Speed – Deployed and delivering value on day one
  • 📊 Context – Understand not just what the threat is, but who's behind it and why
  • 🌍 Coverage – Global sources, multilingual ingestion, AI-translated in real-time
  • 🔁 Flexibility – Monthly billing, transparent pricing, zero vendor lock-in

Whether you're a growing security team or a global enterprise tired of clunky tools, we're here to make threat landscape monitoring fast, smart, and modern.

Modern Threats Move Fast. Your Intelligence Should Too.

If you're still locked into outdated threat feeds or spending more time managing your TI platform than acting on it—it's time for a change.

Say goodbye to analyst-heavy, contract-bound, English-only intel. Say hello to lightweight, AI-powered, global threat visibility.

Get started in minutes. Cancel anytime. Stay ahead always.
