Palantir granted $30 million to build "ImmigrationOS" surveillance platform for ICE

  1. Original Date Announced

    April 18, 2025

    ICE granted a $30 million contract to longtime contractor Palantir Technologies to develop "ImmigrationOS," a surveillance platform. (Federal Contract ID: 70CTD022FR0000170) According to a contract justification document, this modification to a previous ICE contract with Palantir is in support of Presidential Executive Orders including EO 14159 and EO 13773. ImmigrationOS is designed for three main functions: (1) to streamline the identification and apprehension of individuals prioritized for removal, such as "violent criminals," gang members, and visa overstays; (2) to accurately track and report self-deportations with "near real-time visibility;" and (3) to make deportation logistics more efficient by improving how individuals are identified and removed from the U.S. Palantir is expected to deliver a prototype by September 2025.
