How We Work
We do not have personnel on the ground in most of the environments we investigate. Instead, we work from open-source materials — commercial satellite imagery, survivor and witness testimony, leaked documents, court records, and geolocated media — verified against one another and against publicly available forensic literature.
Where evidence is ambiguous, we say so. Where access is blocked, we state that too.

Khthon operates with a core team of analysts, researchers, and technologists — almost all of whom began as volunteers. We do not require formal credentials, but we do require rigour, care, and a willingness to work carefully with sensitive material.
If you have skills in satellite imagery analysis, OSINT investigation, GIS, forensic anthropology, software development, or legal research, we want to hear from you.
