Palantir is (was, 10 years ago, when I interviewed for them) a graph database with a UI that allowed easy viewing of large datasets. Then they sold consulting hours to build custom plugins. I like graph databases, but to paint Palantir as a pre-crime system is a bit over the top. It would be a great tool to e.g. find and model relationships between Bitcoin addresses.
Happy to receive an update on that, but I suspect this reputation that they're doing some magic data processing is probably great for sales, so unlikely to happen.
