Raven AI lets cops pinpoint a specific home from a single interior photo, pulling data from Airbnb and Zillow

404 Media reports that Raven (formerly GeoSpy), made by Graylark Technologies, now geolocates interior images across millions of short-term rental units worldwide — cops upload one interior photo and get a specific property in seconds. LAPD and Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office have already bought access.
- CEO Daniel Heinen announced the feature on LinkedIn; a demo locates a washer/dryer photo to a specific Charlotte Airbnb listing, quoting its exact listing text.
- The tool clearly draws on Zillow/Airbnb-style listing data, raising serious surveillance and privacy concerns as real estate photos feed law enforcement.
- The issue also features a podcast interview with Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen, subject of Sorkin's 'The Social Reckoning,' on AI supercharging privacy risks.
