Tech Stack
Problem
Geopolitical intelligence is either locked behind Bloomberg terminals costing $25K/year or buried in news feeds that require hours to parse. There's no product that gives a solo analyst, researcher, or enterprise team a live, structured view of global risk at a glance.
Approach
Built a MapLibre GL globe as the primary interface — every data layer toggled on top of a single interactive map. Engineered 45+ live data feeds (GDELT, USGS, FlightAware, AIS ship tracking, CISA cyber alerts, undersea cable databases) into a unified event stream. Layered an AI analyst (Claude) on top that synthesizes tension patterns into a daily intelligence brief.
Outcome
Live at nexuswatch.io — 86 countries, 45+ data layers, live geopolitical scoring, and an AI analyst accessible without an enterprise contract. Designed for researchers, journalists, analysts, and operators who need situational awareness, not a Bloomberg subscription.
