For licensed investigators & attorneys

The quiet digital research desk behind your investigations.

Licensed PIs and law firms don't need another vendor — they need hours back. We handle the digital legwork: source-linked research packets, public records retrieval, and evidentiary social media preservation. You review, verify, and deliver under your license. Your client never sees us.

White-label · source-cited · every finding linked and timestamped

White-label — your letterhead, not ours Every finding source-linked & dated Public sources only, ethically collected Licensee reviews & delivers Fixed scope, fixed price
The problem we solve

Your billable skill is investigation. You're spending it on browser tabs.

Every hour a licensed investigator spends pulling court dockets, screenshotting profiles, and organizing exhibits is an hour not spent on interviews, surveillance, and the judgment calls only a licensee can make. We do the digital legwork to a documented standard — you stay in control of the case.

Organized, not just collected

Research arrives indexed, summarized, and cross-referenced — with a retrieval log — so it drops straight into your case file or exhibit list.

Documented to survive scrutiny

URLs, timestamps, archive links, capture method, and platform notes on every item. Built so opposing counsel's first question isn't your last.

Invisible to your client

Deliverables are prepared for your review and formatted to your standards. You verify, adopt, and deliver under your license and brand.

Services

Four ways to plug in a research desk.

Two lanes: white-label support for licensed professionals, and direct exposure assessments where no third party is researched. Every engagement is fixed-scope and fixed-price, confirmed on a short call before work begins.

  • Plain-language report: what's out there, where, and how it got there
  • Prioritized removal and reduction checklist you can execute
  • Optional re-check to verify what came down

How it works

Scope it in twenty minutes. Get hours back every case.

STEP 01

Scoping call

You describe the matter and the research questions. We confirm what's in scope, what's out, fixed price, and turnaround — before any work begins. Licensing verified for white-label engagements.

STEP 02

We run the desk

Collection from public sources only, logged as we go: retrieval records, capture timestamps, corroboration status. You can check in at any point; nothing is delivered to anyone but you.

STEP 03

You review & deliver

A clean, source-linked packet arrives for your professional review. You verify, adopt what stands up, and deliver to your client under your license and letterhead.

The deliverable

Built to survive review — yours and theirs.

Everything we hand you is prepared knowing a licensee, a client, and possibly a courtroom will look at it. Every packet includes:

  • Bottom line up front — findings summarized in plain language before the detail
  • Source links and dates on every single item — nothing unsupported
  • Corroboration flags — confirmed, single-source, or open gap, item by item
  • Retrieval & capture log — what was collected, when, and how
  • Stated gaps — what we couldn't establish is documented, not hidden

Common questions

Straight answers.

Are you a private investigator?

No, and we don't pretend to be. We are a digital research and documentation desk. Work that constitutes an investigation of a person — for litigation, insurance, employment, or similar purposes — is performed through and under the direction of a licensed private investigator or attorney, who reviews and delivers the work product. That structure is deliberate, and it's why licensed professionals trust us with their cases.

Why would a PI outsource research instead of doing it in-house?

Because desk research doesn't require a license — judgment does. Docket pulls, records indexing, and capture logging consume billable hours that investigators could spend on interviews, surveillance, and analysis. We do the systematic legwork to a documented standard; the licensee applies the professional judgment. Most clients start with one overflow case.

Where does your information come from?

Publicly available sources only: court records, state business filings, property and UCC records, licensing databases, news archives, and publicly visible online content. We never access private accounts, use pretexting or fake profiles, contact subjects, or purchase restricted data. Every finding cites its source and collection date.

Will my client know you were involved?

Not unless you tell them. White-label engagements are strictly confidential: deliverables are prepared for your review, formatted to your standards, and carry your brand when you adopt them. We sign NDAs as a matter of course.

Can I hire you directly to look into someone?

No. We don't investigate individuals for direct clients — that's work for a licensed investigator, and we'd be glad to support yours. What we do offer directly: assessments of your own digital exposure, and public records research support for attorneys and their teams.

Is the social media capture admissible?

Admissibility is always a legal determination for counsel — we don't promise it. What we do is make the record easy to defend: every capture is logged with URL, timestamp, method, and platform state, with archive links where possible, organized so counsel can lay foundation efficiently.

What does it cost?

Every engagement is fixed-scope and fixed-price, quoted after a 20-minute scoping call. Per-case packets, per-matter records support, fixed-fee exposure assessments, and monthly retainers for agencies with recurring volume. No hourly meters, no surprises.
