Open Shadows is a center for research, intelligence, and organizing against extremism and authoritarian rule. We are built by and for the communities at greatest risk. We defend communities, defend democracy, and drive out darkness.

OSIRIS
The beating heart of our resistance–an active network of investigators, researchers, experts, and organizers from targeted communities and their allies. OSIRIS leads high-impact research and investigative missions to expose extremist threats, disrupt state abuse, and defend democracy from the ground up.
How We Fight
We fight with the facts, strategy, and precision. Open Shadows exposes extremist networks, tracks state power, and arms communities with the intelligence they need to resist. From OSINT investigations to real-time threat monitoring, we run operations that protect the people most under attack. We don't wait for justice. We build the tools to demand it, defend it, and make it undeniable.
