Lampyre sits in the same neighbourhood as Maltego: a Windows application, visual graphs, and OSINT/threat-intel tasks on the machine. Analysts who want a local workstation will prefer it. OSINTverse does not ship a Windows client. SearchIn is the opposite bet — browser, prepaid providers, cases stored for the account, API for automation. Compare them as workstation vs desk, not as two clones.

Use Lampyre when you want a local OSINT workstation. Use GraphIn when the investigation graph should live in the browser instead of another desktop seat.

What Lampyre is great at

A Windows investigation client with visual analysis
OSINT and threat-intel workflows on the desktop
Local control of the case file
An alternative graph workstation for teams that are not on Maltego
