See it before the news does.
Whole Africa Sentinel Intelligence Data verifies every claim across six independent signals, in 41 languages — and flags what it can't corroborate rather than faking certainty.

The moat
Left of the journalist.
News is the last link in the chain. The moat is everything to its left.
- Physical reality satellite · thermal · water · vessels
- Digital exhaust posts · outages · chatter
- Official record statements · advisories
- WASID operates here Journalist the write-up
- Broadcast the news
Live today — the moment a claim surfaces anywhere in the chain, six independent signals weigh it: cross-source corroboration, the fact-check record, spread velocity, prior-narrative correlation, known manipulation patterns, and an AI read. Before the broadcast — and usually before the write-up.
In development — the physical-reality layer. Satellite, thermal, water and vessel signals, designed to read the ground before it becomes a story, are being built — not yet operational. We'll say so plainly until they are; that is the house style.
Method
Tally. Compare. Filter. Predict.
-
Tally
Count what is actually carrying a claim — distinct, credible outlets, not echoes of one post.
-
Compare
Six independent signals weigh in. No single signal — not even the model — can decide the verdict alone.
-
Filter
What can't be corroborated is flagged unverified — a first-class verdict, never buried, never dressed up.
-
Predict
Narrative velocity and historical precedent show where a claim is heading before it lands.
Measured
A measurement — a reading, a recorded quantity — verifies itself. Reality doesn't need a second witness.
Reported
A claim — someone says a thing happened — is human-verified. An analyst confirms with a confidence score or dismisses with a reason; every decision is audited. We bill on verified data.
| CROSS_SOURCE | SUPPORTS | 4 credible outlets corroborate |
|---|---|---|
| FACTCHECK | NEUTRAL | fact-checked — no clear false rating |
| VELOCITY | NEUTRAL | narrative phase: steady |
| CORRELATION | NEUTRAL | no prior-threat correlation |
| PATTERNS | NEUTRAL | no manipulation pattern matched |
| AI | SUPPORTS | AI assessment: low manipulation |

Access
Three tiers. The plan gates value.
Signal
The verified feed
Geocoded, verdict-scored risk events over API. Verified by default — unverified never leaks into the feed.
Watch
Signal + watchlists
Register the sites and routes you protect; proximity alerts when a verified event lands near them.
Advisory
Watch + the human desk
Analyst-grade briefings and direct access to the verification desk for the questions a feed can't answer.

The ethic
Events and risks — never individuals.
No surveillance. No person tracking, no identity resolution, no de-anonymisation. Public sources first; interception never. This line is not a disclaimer — it is what makes the sentinel legal, sellable, and worth trusting across the continent.
