These agencies may obtain business from corporate or individual clients and provide a variety of intelligence services to their clients to meet their needs. These clients can be corporations, law firms, private investigative agencies, non-governmental organizations, government agencies, individuals, etc.

The main task of a private intelligence agency is to collect a large amount of information through various sources such as news, literature, the Internet, surveys, tracking, surveillance, and theft. This information may include assets of companies and individuals, business plans, trade secrets, personal information, and politically sensitive information.

Private intelligence agencies also use a number of technical means to improve the quality and quantity of intelligence information, such as technical surveillance, data mining, cross-platform analysis, and big data analysis.

Private intelligence agencies often collaborate with other organizations to achieve their missions. These organizations include other intelligence agencies, legal enforcement agencies, strategic consulting firms, security companies, etc.

Private intelligence agencies' clients may also come from these organizations. Such cooperation can help intelligence agencies gain greater access to resources, technology, and information, and can enhance mutual trust and cooperation among organizations.
