Intelligence Dossier™ — Flagship Product
Everything we can prove. Nothing we cannot.
30–60 pages. Ten structured sections. Every claim cited. Delivered within 7 business days. $2,800.
The Intelligence Dossier™ is our flagship product. It applies the full Gumshoe Capital Intelligence research methodology to a single entity: reconstructing the corporate timeline from public records, mapping the director network, identifying legal and regulatory history, and assembling a complete source register so every finding is independently reproducible.
The report does not offer opinions, ratings, or recommendations. It documents what the public record says — comprehensively, forensically, and with full citations.
The 10-section structure
01
Executive Summary
A purely factual summary of the entity. Formation details, current status, major public record findings. No conclusions, no ratings.
02
Corporate Timeline
A chronological reconstruction from public sources: formation, name changes, funding events, acquisitions, director changes, insolvency events, regulatory actions, significant media events.
03
Director Intelligence
Every current and historical director. Previous companies, failed and deregistered entities, insolvency events, court appearances, disqualification orders, historical directorships, associated trusts and related holdings.
04
Network Analysis
Relationship mapping across companies, shareholders, subsidiaries, and associated entities. Surfaces connections not visible from a single ABN or company lookup.
05
Customer Concentration
Public record indicators of dependency: government contracts, major disclosed customers, single-industry exposure, geographic concentration.
06
Supplier Risk
Supplier concentration indicators, country-of-origin exposure, sanctions register cross-check, manufacturing concentration, and supply chain political risk flags visible in public sources.
07
Legal Intelligence
Court records, ASIC regulatory actions and findings, employment disputes, class actions, tribunal matters, bankruptcy events, and adverse actions from all available registers.
08
Media Intelligence
Sentiment analysis across publicly available media. Major themes, recurring allegations, public controversies, key spokesperson identification, significant media timeline.
09
Competitive Landscape
Public record findings on named competitors: funding events, ASIC registrations, hiring signals, geographic expansion, disclosed acquisitions.
10
Source Register
Every source. Every citation. Every database accessed. Every URL. Every public record. Presented so any finding can be independently verified.
What "forensic, not editorial" means in practice
An analyst says: "We believe this company is at risk." A Dossier says: "Public records show the following director has been associated with four subsequently deregistered companies."
The distinction is not just legal — it is epistemically important. The reader can verify the second statement. They cannot verify the first. Everything in a Gumshoe Intelligence Dossier falls into the second category.
