Traffic Jam
Traffic Jam innovates towards victim-centered, trauma-informed policing, with a focus on the most serious forms of exploitation, and creates intelligence to guide resources towards the greatest human trafficking threats.
Traffic Jam helps law enforcement do three big things: fight organized crime, stop human trafficking, and find missing persons.

Every day, there are hundreds of thousands of ads online selling sexual services; behind many of these are victims of human trafficking. The International Labor Organization estimates commercial sexual exploitation generates $99 billion in profits annually. Traffickers maximize technology to exploit victims while evading law enforcement detection.
The company’s flagship tool, Traffic Jam, uses AI to help law enforcement find victims and enable them to take down organized criminal networks. In 2020 alone, it saved an estimated 70,000 investigative hours.
It is 60x faster than manual search, speeds up investigations, reduces time spent on routine tasks, and has been known to enable a case against a trafficker to be put together in 3 months that would typically have taken 2 years.
We’re proud to partner with more than 80 law enforcement agencies around the world. Government agencies are often years behind in the capabilities of the tools they use to identify victims and take down criminal networks. These agencies need the best tools available on the front lines of social impact.
Traffic Jam is used by law enforcement agencies in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. If you are law enforcement working sex trafficking investigations, contact us for a demo and free Traffic Jam trial.

I’ve found it to be incredibly powerful and is where I look first when trying to find ads and victims... Traffic Jam was critical in locating all of the information needed for us to identify the victims. I can’t speak highly enough about the platform’s capabilities and how much we depend on it in our cases.
