More DetailsAidan Raney has always been a problem-solver. As a kid, he hacked into his local library’s computers just to get more time online—a story that led to an FBI visit to his small town. But that was only the beginning. Today, Aidan is the founder of Farnsworth Intelligence, a digital intelligence service known for getting results where others can’t....
His big break came during his time as a software developer when he uncovered a massive phishing ring. He didn’t stop at finding just clues—he traced the entire operation to its mastermind. It was a turning point. In that moment, Aidan realized he had to switch paths and dedicate himself to intelligence work. It wasn’t long before he traded software development for a career focused on protecting people from hidden digital threats.
Aidan founded Farnsworth Intelligence to help others see what they can’t. Today, he’s at the forefront of digital intelligence, tracking down crypto scammers, dismantling human trafficking networks, and teaching others how to navigate the digital underworld responsibly. His work is guided by his values: honesty, integrity, transparency, and equity.
Aidan’s drive to be the best comes from his parents, David and Lisa Farnsworth, who were trailblazers in their own right. His father, David, was a nuclear physicist who worked for the intelligence community, while his mother, Lisa, engineered lasers for high-tech motherboard production.
Clients turn to Aidan because he never stops at the surface—he digs until he finds the truth. Every case is personal to him, and no two days are the same. If you’re looking for someone with the skills and determination to get results, Aidan is that person.

Our team is made up of experts on digital intelligence, including a former data intelligence program manager for a counter human trafficking non-profit and analysts who work for government, military, and private institutions.
But we also pride ourselves in our technical capabilities, we have software developers on our team which empower us to delivery top of the line data from unique sources where others could not.
Our intelligence capabilities cover:
- Open source intelligence (OSINT)
- Geo-spatial intelligence (GEOINT)
- Social media intelligence (SOCINT)
- Dark web and deep web intelligence
- Clearweb and darkweb scraping
- Custom built intelligence solutions
We start with the clearweb, deepweb, and darkweb; but we go much further than that. Our team takes advantage of every source of digital data that we can find, even beyond traditional OSINT; from data breaches and leaks, to open file servers, to public records, to FOI/FOIA requests. We can even use social engineering and custom honeypots for a case when needed and authorized.
While we do have the power to access unparalleled amounts of data, we recognize the need for this data to be admissible in court and for our practices to be ethical.
Don't worry about missing that one detail, not finding that huge red flag, or not having the full picture. We will do all the heavy lifting for you, all you have to do is answer a few questions and sit back.
