Sahar has acquired Crowlingo
November 2024 — Sahar, a French technology company and leader in the OSINT (open source intelligence) sector, has acquired Crowlingo, an AI-powered social media monitoring platform.
Founded in 2019 in Paris, Sahar is a French technology company incubated at the Cyber Defense Factory (Commandement de Cyberdéfense). The company specializes in the collection, processing and visualization of large-scale data. Sahar is recognized by government ministries, supporting them on several projects. It also assists both the public and private sectors in the development and deployment of strategic products. Additionally, Sahar provides training in crisis management and AI to the INSP (formerly ENA) and SciencesPo.
Crowlingo is an AI-based platform that analyzes social networks and online press in over 100 languages to monitor brand reputation or track impactful topics in real-time. The tool provides a quick, real-time overview of a subject or entity’s perception by analyzing information flows and automatically identifying multiple trends — such as spikes in diffusion and hateful or negative comments — without human intervention. Powered by a deep learning solution, the platform can extract the meaning of texts in over 100 languages, eliminating the need for translation to process a broader range of information. This enables users to quickly adapt their communication strategies or address emerging issues.
