The Problem

Why investigative reporting on fraud is slower than it needs to be

📬

FOIA requests take months for what RedMapAlert surfaces in seconds

Federal enforcement press releases, IRS compliance data, and HHS OIG exclusion records are all public. But manually assembling them into a coherent story takes weeks — or a FOIA request that arrives after someone else breaks the story.

🗓

Enforcement timeline reconstruction is manual and error-prone

Mapping the full arc of a fraud case — from first complaint to final judgment — requires cross-referencing DOJ, court records, IRS filings, and press releases across multiple databases. RedMapAlert does this automatically for any organization.

📊

Missing the story buried in 990 filings

IRS Form 990s contain executive compensation, related-party disclosures, governance structure changes, and financial anomalies that form the backbone of major charity fraud investigations. Most journalists never see them because parsing 990s at scale is impossible without specialized tools.

What RedMapAlert Does for Journalists

Investigative tools built for reporters who cover fraud, enforcement, and nonprofits

📡

Real-Time Enforcement Monitoring

Set watchlist alerts on any organization, geographic area, or sector. RedMapAlert notifies you the moment a new DOJ press release, IRS compliance action, or HHS OIG enforcement action is filed — before the wire services pick it up.

🗺

Geographic Fraud Pattern Mapping

Map federal enforcement actions by city, county, or congressional district. Identify clusters of enforcement activity that signal systemic fraud in a sector, region, or funding program — ideal for data-driven investigative series.

🔬

990 Forensics for Source Development

RedMapAlert's AI analyzes IRS Form 990 filings to surface executive compensation outliers, self-dealing patterns, and governance failures that give investigative reporters concrete, sourced allegations to pursue with human sources.

📎

Citation-Ready Reports with Source Links

Every RedMapAlert report cites the primary government source for each finding — DOJ press release, IRS filing, court docket. Export reports as PDF for editorial and legal review. Every data point is traceable to its origin.

Built for Investigative Reporters

I used RedMapAlert to build the enforcement timeline for a 12-month healthcare fraud investigation. What would have been three months of FOIA requests took two hours. The story ran on the front page.

The 990 forensics feature is extraordinary for charity beat reporters. I discovered a story about executive self-dealing by running an organization through RedMapAlert that never appeared in any watchdog database.

The geographic clustering feature helped us identify a pattern of Title IV fraud across three states that became a six-part investigative series. RedMapAlert was the tip that started it.
