Veytics for journalists ​

This guide is for investigative journalists using Veytics to correlate vessel movements, flight patterns, and breaking news for stories — and to package the resulting evidence in a form that survives scrutiny.

Investigative flow ​

1. Build the chronology ​

Pick the date window. Filter the Timeline by event type. Pin every event you'll reference in the story, with a note on why it matters.

2. Verify each event ​

Veytics surfaces events from upstream providers — it does not validate them. For each pinned event:

  • Click through to the underlying source (the news article, the AIS provider's vessel page).
  • Cross-reference with at least one independent source.
  • Note the upstream provider and timestamp in your evidence file.

For each visual you want in the story:

  • Permalink the view (see How do I — Share a permalink).
  • Screenshot at publish-ready resolution.
  • Note the timestamp at the moment of capture (data may shift on later loads).

4. Package the evidence ​

For each claim in the story, the evidence file should contain:

  • Primary source URL.
  • Veytics permalink (where useful).
  • Screenshot.
  • Timestamp of capture.
  • Provenance — which Veytics data provider delivered the data.

This survives readers, editors, lawyers, and post-publication challenges.

Sourcing and citation ​

Veytics is a tool for finding and cross-referencing — not a primary source. In citations:

  • Cite the upstream provider (AISstream.io, OpenSky, the original news outlet) — not "Veytics".
  • Include the timestamp of capture — vessel/aircraft positions are time-sensitive.
  • Where you used AI summarization, mark it as such; never present an AI summary as primary reporting.

What Veytics exports ​

  • PDF export for model portfolio reports and Security dashboard panels — useful when financial context anchors the story.
  • Permalinks for any panel state — the recipient sees the same view (subject to plan-tier gating).
  • Screenshots are out-of-band — use the OS screenshot tool against the active panel.

There is no built-in "export full investigation" feature today; assemble evidence files manually.

Operational security for sensitive stories ​

For investigations into entities that may push back, treat your account itself as part of the threat model. Read OSINT operational security — separate accounts per investigation domain, 2FA, network-level anonymization, and the boundary the AI chat enforces.

Practical additions for journalists:

  • Don't paste source identities into AI chat. The chat sees your panels — it does not need names.
  • Don't share permalinks publicly until publication; permalinks may include filter sets that hint at lines of inquiry.
  • For multi-party investigations, share Veytics dashboards via permalink — not by sharing accounts.
