Palantir awarded $30M ICE contract for ImmigrationOS

Palantir Technologies was awarded a $30 million contract by ICE to build "ImmigrationOS," an AI-powered platform to track and deport immigrants. The system provides "near real-time visibility" on self-deportations, streamlines identification of individuals prioritized for removal, and manages deportation logistics. ImmigrationOS integrates data from passport records, Social Security files, IRS tax data, and license plate readers. Palantir has been an ICE contractor since 2011 and received over $900 million in federal contracts since President Trump took office.
