For investigative professionals who need secure, reliable tools for online research, Hunchly is a simple, powerful application that efficiently collects, preserves, and organizes information and evidence from websites, social media and other online sources. The team at Hunchly makes professional investigative tools easily accessible so that anyone, from individuals to enterprises, can pursue the truth in a transparent, legally defensible way while protecting their safety and anonymity.
In 2015, Dark River Systems released Hunchly, a groundbreaking application for investigative professionals and online researchers. The software was designed to help solve the biggest problem in open source intelligence—how to preserve and organize materials collected by an investigator and make them court-ready as evidence.
Seeing the immense power and potential of Hunchly, Sapper Labs purchased early copies and actively introduced it to Canadian law enforcement and military audiences. Before long, word of Hunchly spread beyond North America and led to success across Europe and around the world, a significant milestone for the company.
After several years of this successful partnership between Sapper Labs and Dark River Systems, the natural next step was to join forces more formally, and, in 2022, Sapper Labs Group was formed through the merger of Sapper Labs, Sapper Labs Cyber Solutions, and Dark River Systems.
Together, Sapper Labs Group and the Hunchly team remain as committed as ever to improving our users' experiences and developing new products to support the OSINT community in its investigative efforts.
