AI-powered Intelligence
Writing platformImprove your analytic writing + tradecraft.
Second Set reviews your work against intelligence standards and tradecraft, flags areas that need attention, and provides coaching to help you improve without doing the thinking or writing for you.
A Second Set of Eyes, Not a Replacement.
Intelligence work requires judgment, critical thinking, and a strong command of analytic tradecraft. Second Set is designed to help analysts strengthen those skills, not hand them over to AI.
The platform grew out of the same hands-on approach we use in our training. Analysts do the work. Second Set reviews it against intelligence standards, provides feedback, and helps analysts understand where and how to improve.
Each review becomes an opportunity to strengthen the skills behind the work. Second Set helps analysts identify gaps in how they’re applying analytic tradecraft and improve their skills over time.
Second Set is available by subscription. Contact us for pricing.
The Second Set Difference
BUILT SPECIFICALLY FOR INTELLIGENCE WORK
This isn’t a general-purpose writing tool. It reviews analytic products against standard intelligence methodology and analytic tradecraft. True to its name, it’s a second set of eyes. With critical-thinking guardrails built in, you still do all the thinking.
COACHING THAT BUILDS SKILL
Each review is an opportunity to strengthen the skills behind the work. Second Set helps analysts identify gaps in how they’re applying analytic tradecraft and improve over time.
FEEDBACK WHERE YOU’RE WORKING
Get feedback directly in your draft and apply it in context, without jumping between separate notes or tools.
STANDARDS THAT FIT YOUR TEAM
Organizations can create analysis templates, set style guides, and establish clear standards for analyst work.
One tool for analysts and their teams.
Second Set supports individual analysts who want to strengthen their own work and managers who want to create clearer, more consistent standards across a team.
FOR ANALYSTS
Strengthen your writing and tradecraft with feedback you can apply directly to your work.
Draft your product, run Second Set, review the comments, revise, and keep refining your work. We put guardrails in place so the work and critical thinking stay yours. Second Set helps you see where your analysis may need improvement and gives you feedback you can apply to the next round.
FOR MANAGERS + TEAMS
Set clearer standards and spend more of your review time on judgment and coaching.
Create templates and style guides around the way your organization works, review analyst submissions alongside Second Set feedback, return or approve work, and see how analysts are progressing over time.
