NCMEC and Palantir: https://www.palantir.com/philanthropy-engineering/annual-report/2016/ncmec/

Since 2010, the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) has worked with Palantir to support its mission to help find missing children, reduce child sexual exploitation and prevent future victimization. In 2013, NCMEC made Palantir their analytic system of record, laying the groundwork for new efforts to assist in cases of sexually exploited children beginning in 2015.

New data released by the National Crime Agency's (NCA) UK Missing Persons Bureau shows that there has been a steep increase in the number of missing person reports made to police over the past year. Last year police in England, Scotland and Wales received almost over 375,000 calls relating to missing person reports compared to 321,000 reports in the previous year.

I wonder what the figures are for the US?


From the Palantir website:

In 2016, NCMEC analysts used Palantir to find clues related to more than 200 new cases of child sexual exploitation.

200?
