The Infrared project is looking to turn 6+ years of rigorous research into real-world impact. Our algorithms have been combined to create a searchable, AI-powered database that provides human trafficking survivors with access to their digital footprint and that of their trafficker. This digital footprint sheds light on where the victim has been, over what time period, and to which other victims they might be connected. The footprint is checked for common indicators of human trafficking, which is designed to corroborate and empower victims' stories.
12+
13+
Using the Infrared tool, human trafficking survivors will be armed with new types of high quality evidence, reducing the burden and trauma of re-sharing their stories. Furthermore, the product is designed to enhance the survivor's chances of success in accessing restorative justice (by way of criminal courts, civil courts, family courts, refugee tribunals and other venues where evidence is needed).
14+
15+
We are looking to collaborate with non-profit organizations working with human trafficking survivors to enhance the quality of care and the opportunities they have to rebuild their lives.

This project combines large language models (LLMs) with web search APIs to create an AI-powered fact-checking tool. The goal is to develop a publicly accessible app that empowers individuals to verify the accuracy of information they encounter online. This app goes beyond fact-checking and aims to enhance the understanding of its users by offering credible sources.
12+
13+
Designed to be user-friendly and transparent, the app ensures that users can see the reasoning and evidence behind its conclusions. This combination of AI-powered analysis and credible source linking aims to build trust in the tool while addressing the growing challenges of misinformation and disinformation
