⁠Robin: AI-Powered Dark Web OSINT Tool

Robin is an AI-powered tool for conducting dark web OSINT investigations. It leverages LLMs to refine queries, filter search results from dark web search engines, and provide an investigation summary.

Installation⁠ • Usage⁠ • Contributing⁠ • Acknowledgements⁠

⁠Features

  • ⚙️ Modular Architecture – Clean separation between search, scrape, and LLM workflows.
  • 🤖 Multi-Model Support – Easily switch between OpenAI, Claude, Gemini or local models like Ollama.
  • 🌐 Web UI – Streamlit-based interface for interactive investigations.
  • 🐳 Docker-Ready – Recommended Docker deployment for clean, isolated usage.
  • 📝 Custom Reporting – Save investigation output to file for reporting or further analysis.
  • 🧩 Extensible – Easy to plug in new search engines, models, or output formats.

⁠⚠️ Disclaimer

This tool is intended for educational and lawful investigative purposes only. Accessing or interacting with certain dark web content may be illegal depending on your jurisdiction. The author is not responsible for any misuse of this tool or the data gathered using it.

Use responsibly and at your own risk. Ensure you comply with all relevant laws and institutional policies before conducting OSINT investigations.

Additionally, Robin leverages third-party APIs (including LLMs). Be cautious when sending potentially sensitive queries, and review the terms of service for any API or model provider you use.

⁠Installation

Note

The tool needs Tor to do the searches. You can install Tor using `apt install tor` on Linux/Windows(WSL) or `brew install tor` on Mac. Once installed, confirm if Tor is running in the background.

Tip

You can provide your LLM of choice API key by either creating .env file (refer to sample env file in the repo) or by setting env variables in PATH.

For Ollama, provide http://host.docker.internal:11434 as OLLAMA_BASE_URL in your env if running using docker method or http://127.0.0.1:11434 for other methods. You might need to serve Ollama on 0.0.0.0 depending on your OS. You can do by running OLLAMA_HOST=0.0.0.0 ollama serve & in your terminal.
