Value proposition
Scaling the Infrastructure of Truth
Powering data sovereignty and algorithmic accountability for civic tech partners.
1. Evidence integrity and metadata preservation
The true value of digital evidence is in the metadata. We partner with storage and forensic tech teams to preserve timestamps, device IDs, and GPS data for court-ready evidence.
- Digital chain-of-custody protocols with secure hashing.
- Metadata persistence to survive Fourth Amendment challenges.
- Standard sidecar files for court-admissible evidence.
Help us build the standard sidecar for public evidence so user-submitted video remains verifiably untouched.
2. Open data standards: the accountability API
Public records remain fragmented across thousands of agencies. We are defining a unified schema for misconduct investigation reports and Brady/Giglio data.
Schema standardization
End data silos
Build a universal API that enables cross-jurisdictional search and automation.
Interoperability
Design for scale
Give researchers and legal teams consistent, queryable data at national scale.
3. Responsible automation and civic AI
As we scale, manual review becomes impossible. We need explainable automation that centers on trust, privacy, and human oversight.
Automated redaction
Rapidly scrub home addresses and sensitive personal data while preserving evidentiary integrity.
Trend detection
Identify heat map spikes in specific misconduct types without black-box models.
Explainable models
Build trust-first automation with human oversight and ethical governance.
4. Tech stack and collaboration
| Feature | Tech partner opportunity | Scalability impact |
