About Closure

Closure helps law enforcement search evidence and solve crime. We build digital analysts that support public servants at every level of criminal justice.

Public servants across the U.S. use Closure to expedite investigations into cold cases, homicides, gang conflicts, sexual assault, and other serious offenses, as well as critical administrative support.

We’re live with police departments, prosecutors, sheriffs, state investigative agencies, and other criminal justice stakeholders across the country, reducing evidence overload across the criminal justice system.

Closure is an intentionally tight-knit team of ambitious ex-Palantir and ex-IDF engineers and operators. We operate with high speed, high integrity, high autonomy, and low ego (or so we like to think), backed by reputable investors including Y Combinator, CRV, Pathlight, and others.
