i2 Group product updates in 2025

In this update we will cover, our new product releases – i2 Insight, i2 Overwatch and i2 Explore for iBase, as well as feature updates for i2 Analyst’s Notebook, iBase and i2 Analyst’s Notebook Web.

i2 Insights

A new add-on to i2 Analyst’s Notebook, i2 Insights supercharges your data processing. This new product allows you to drag and drop files such as call data records and get range of views onto the data – statistical, geospatial, temporal or link analysis – instantly. This allows analysts and investigators to spend less time on preparing and uploading data and more time on analyzing the data.

i2 Overwatch

Defense industry solution providing consistent and accurate “Battlespace Object Management” view by collecting and fusing ISR, SIGINT, HUMINT, OSINT, and coalition data. i2 Overwatch has been developed to ensure that this data is presented in a way that is immediately recognisable to NATO members.
