About Us

Revontulet is a mission-driven company building a safer world for all. We map and analyze complex networked behavior online and offline, providing insights, analysis, and data to assist clients in understanding the threats posed to their stakeholders, services, and operations.

Covering the spectrum from toxic discourse and polarization to terrorism, we have contributed to policy development, strategic advice and law-enforcement action. We continuously monitor risks, threats, and abuse of services, conduct research, support the development of policy, strategies, and tools, and conduct tests and exercises to ensure our clients have the best information available to make informed decisions about their safety.

Our research, data, and tailored intelligence have supported civil society organizations in developing campaigns to reduce polarization and municipalities in understanding the dissemination of toxic and harmful discourse in communities, informing efforts to strengthen cohesion and local democracy. Our efforts have supported some of the world's largest social media platforms in dismantling extremist and criminal networks on platforms to improve user safety and contributed to law enforcement successfully foiling planned international terrorist attacks.

Through analysis, intelligence, data, and foresight, we help our clients proactively take the necessary steps to prevent harm.

We work closely with our clients to ensure safety and prevent malicious actors from abusing infrastructure, technologies, and services. We also ensure compliance with policy, ethical, and legal frameworks. We monitor and address social harms, extremism-related risks, and adversarial behaviors across the spectrum, from toxic speech through polarization and conspiracy theories to cyber risks, organized crime, violent extremist activities, and terrorist threats.

Our team comprises social scientists, intelligence analysts, data scientists, developers, and researchers. Rooted in strong ethical frameworks, this multidisciplinary team is built from the ground up to develop and deploy data-driven solutions, cutting-edge technology, and research to offer guidance and support to clients grappling with complex safety challenges.

Together, we can build a safer world for all.


Our Brand

Revontulet is Finnish for “northern lights” and translates to “fox fire.” In Finnish folklore, the aurora stems from the sparks of fur from an arctic fox running across the night sky.

Meanwhile, the name also allows us to reflect on the qualities we embody: The aurora ties together the northern and southern hemispheres, bringing light to our darkest days and expanding across the horizon. Arctic foxes are clever, curious, and playful. While our work spans the globe, the Nordic name allows us to maintain a sense of our roots, from which our global reach and impact grow.

Revontulet continues to take a human-centered approach to building public safety in collaboration with our network of clients and partners as we work with new clients, sectors, and communities toward building a safer world for all.
