Built for Real Investigations
Warrant Return Triage
Provider returns are now searchable in minutes, not days. Drop in the ZIP from Meta, Snapchat, or Google and Scout parses the whole package into a navigable triage view — account summary, contacts, messages, devices, login IPs, and a location map you can actually read. Then run your hash lists and keyword sets across the return to surface the messages, contacts, and media that matter to the case.
- Meta, Snapchat, Google — messages, locations, devices, login IPs
- Hash matching across the return — Project VIC + custom agency lists
- Keyword scanning across messages, contacts, file names, metadata
- Flagged evidence exports to standalone PDF/HTML reports — anyone on the team can review, no Scout install required
- Roadmap — Kik and Discord parsers next
iOS Live Triage
Plug an iPhone or iPad straight into the workstation, trust the computer, and Scout pulls device info plus an in-app Media Explorer with thumbnails and EXIF — no jailbreak, no third-party backup, and nothing leaves the box.
- Device info — model, iOS version, serial, capacity
- Media Explorer — photos and videos with thumbnails + EXIF
- Hash matching — Project VIC + custom lists, in-stream
- Local only — uses Apple's Mobile Device service; no cloud
Scan What Matters, Skip the Rest
Scout doesn't scan every file on a drive. It targets specific directories and artifact locations where contraband and evidence are commonly stored — delivering fast results during time-sensitive investigations.
- USB drives — thumb drives, external HDDs, SD cards
- Android devices — photos, SMS, browser data, app artifacts
- Targeted scan paths — not full-disk, just high-probability locations
- 10-50x faster scanning — parallel hash matching built for field speed
Known-Hash Database Matching
Load industry-standard hash lists and Scout will automatically flag any files that match during scanning. No manual cross-referencing required.
- Import hash lists from .txt, .csv, and .json formats
- In-memory hash cache for rapid comparison at scale
- MD5, SHA-1, and SHA-256 hash algorithms supported
- Flagged files highlighted with match details in results
Court-Ready PDF Reports
Generate comprehensive forensic reports directly from your scan results. Every report includes the metadata, hash values, and evidence documentation needed for legal proceedings.
- Automated PDF generation with agency branding
- Evidence thumbnails with file paths and hash values
- Case information and chain-of-custody fields
- Scan summary with statistics and timeline
