About Sentinel Review
A public, free conflict intelligence dashboard for the OSINT community
What this is

Sentinel Review aggregates, verifies, and presents conflict events from open sources, with AI-generated daily briefings on top. The closest reference points are Liveuamap (real-time but shallow), ACLED (rigorous but slow), and ISW daily assessments (analytically strong but static prose). This product sits between them: fast like Liveuamap, analytically credible like ACLED, more interactive than ISW.

v0.1 covers a single theater: Ukraine, eastern oblasts. The map shows three event types (strikes, clashes, movements) with confidence labels on every event. Every event is traceable to its sources and shows a full audit trail. The AI daily briefing is always labeled as a draft until a human reviews it.

Verification first
Confidence labels are deterministic from source counts and tiers, not a model's guess. When in doubt, the label goes down.
Transparent sources
Every event shows its full source list, platform badges, and the relationship each source has to the event (primary, corroborating, contradicting).
No operational use
This tool is for situational awareness and open-source analysis only. Nothing here supports targeting, tasking, or operational decision-making.
Open corrections
Corrections are published in each event's change history. The correction record is permanent and visible to everyone.
What this is not
  • A real-time feed — events are processed and verified before appearing on the map.
  • An authoritative record — it is an OSINT aggregation tool, not a primary source.
  • Complete — only events that pass through the ingestion pipeline are shown. Many events go unreported by monitored sources.
  • Impartial by design — sources have known editorial stances. Trust tiers and source attribution are our mitigations, not a guarantee of neutrality.
  • A targeting or intelligence tool — we actively decline to build features that would support operational military use.
Who runs it

Sentinel Review is an independent project run by Jacob. It has no institutional affiliation, no government funding, and no relationship with any military or intelligence organisation. The source code for the ingestion pipeline methodology is documented publicly at /methodology.

The product is free and public. Future tiers may add additional features for professional analysts, but the core map, briefings, and source data will remain free and openly accessible.
