Solutions / eDiscovery

Evidence processed right the first time

Evident's eDiscovery suite processes body-worn camera footage, police reports, court filings, and discovery productions with forensic-grade chain of custody — from raw upload to court-ready exhibit.

Core Tools

Purpose-built for the two evidence types that dominate modern litigation.

13-Stage Forensic Pipeline

Every file passes through a deterministic, auditable processing chain. Each stage produces independently verifiable outputs.

1–2: Hash & Metadata

SHA-256 cryptographic fingerprint computed on original bytes. EXIF, codec, and file-system metadata extracted and logged. Available on all tiers.

3–4: OCR & Transcription

Tesseract OCR for scanned documents and image-based PDFs. Whisper speech-to-text for audio and video with word-level timestamps.

5–6: Audio & Object Detection

Audio event classification (speech, silence, sirens, commands). YOLOv8 frame-by-frame object detection — people, vehicles, weapons with bounding boxes.

7–8: Diarization & Tracking

Speaker identification across multi-party encounters. Object re-identification and tracking across video frames for movement analysis.

9–10: Violations & Timeline

40+ NJ jurisdiction rules — 4th Amendment, Miranda, Graham v. Connor force factors. Automated event timeline reconstruction from all evidence sources.

11–13: Burden, Report & Export

Burden-of-proof scoring against applicable legal standards. Structured reports with citations. Court-ready export packages with provenance.

Who It Serves

Defense Attorneys

Analyze BWC footage for inconsistencies. Identify Brady material in voluminous discovery productions. Build timelines that expose contradictions between reports and video evidence.

Civil Rights Litigators

Process thousands of pages of police records. Surface patterns of misconduct across multiple incidents. Build evidence packages for Section 1983 claims with chain-of-custody integrity.

Public Defenders

Handle high caseloads with automated transcription and analysis. Get case-critical intelligence from BWC footage in minutes instead of days. Free tier available for budget-constrained offices.

Pro Se Filers

Self-represented litigants can organize discovery, build timelines, and produce court-ready exhibits with the same forensic tools available to law firms.

Platform Guarantees

Chain of Custody

Every file intake, transformation, and export is logged with timestamps, SHA-256 hash verification, and operator identity. Immutable, append-only audit trail from intake through court.

Reproducible Processing

Deterministic pipelines produce identical results on repeated runs. Every stage is independently verifiable. No black-box processing — full transparency at every step.

Court-Ready Export

Generate production sets that meet federal and state court requirements. Load files, metadata, Bates stamps, and privilege logs formatted to spec.

Compliance Automation

Built-in compliance checks for FRCP, NJ state discovery rules, and case-type-specific regulations. Flag issues before they reach opposing counsel.
