It's less automated data analytics and more chart drawing and semantic knowledge base management tied to a federated search system.

Their principle competitor is http://www-03.ibm.com/software/products/en/analysts-notebook

They used to have a free trial you could run via java webstart on their website, but they've taken it down.

Here's a video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f86VKjFSMJE

It's big data in the sense that using google's search box is big data. But from my time using their demo a couple years ago, the actual tool is fairly small in focus. I don't even think the chart view can show more than a few hundred things.

Oh okay cool. That's a different demo. The old one was Operation Tradewinds or something.
Tradestop is what you're thinking of.
Interesting, it looks a lot like Maltego.
That's interesting, do you have a source on that? I got into using yEd recently and was struck with how similar it seemed to tools like Palantir. It seems like something like yEd or other graphing tools are only a couple sprints from basically doing the same thing...at least from the user/client side.
