Two ways to get a forensic investigation done. Run the SleuthX tool yourself, or hand the whole case to a credentialed examiner who does it for you. Pick the path that fits your situation — and your appetite for being hands-on.
Both paths run the same forensic methodology — the difference is who does the work, and how hands-on you want to be. Run the SleuthX tool yourself for $995 once, lifetime access, or hand the whole case to a credentialed examiner and have it done for you.
Run it yourself if…
You’re comfortable working a phone or computer and want answers fast at the lowest cost.
The matter is for your own peace of mind, not headed to court.
You want to keep the tool and re-run it on every future incident.
You’d rather not touch the device, or you only get one chance to collect it correctly.
You need it done quickly, or the matter may end up in a legal process.
You want a documented, court-ready report a credentialed examiner stands behind.
Hire a digital forensic examiner
When you’d rather not run it yourself, hand us the case. A credentialed examiner takes the investigation end to end — collection, analysis, and a written report with numbered exhibits — and reviews every finding before it leaves the practice.
What done-for-you means
We collect the device or accounts you own or are lawfully authorized to access, with tamper-evident handling and a documented chain of custody.
A credentialed examiner runs the analysis and signs off on the findings.
You get a plain-language, court-ready report with numbered exhibits an attorney can file.
A credentialed examiner is not a licensed private investigator, and examiner review is not a guarantee of admissibility — that is always the court’s decision. Expert testimony on the methodology is available separately, arranged for your matter rather than bundled into the package. This service is not a substitute for a full forensic examination of every device in a matter, or for contested-litigation expert testimony; we flag it on the triage call when a case needs more than a standard engagement.
What it costs
Run it yourself for $995 once, lifetime access, or have an examiner do it for you. Done-for-you from $2,000 · 1/3/5 devices · incl. $995 license · $400/hr beyond. Final scope is set on a free triage call. The pricing page has the full breakdown.
What every done-for-you engagement includes
Written scope before any work. You see a written scope — deliverables, timeline, and price — and approve it before we begin. You are never billed for work you did not authorize.
We commit to findings, not outcomes. We tell you up front what the evidence can and cannot establish. Recovery, attribution, and prosecution are decided by banks, platforms, insurers, and courts — we produce the record they act on, and we put that distinction in writing.
We will tell you if you do not need us. If a free or simpler step — a police report, an IC3 filing, a platform's own recovery flow — would resolve your situation, we point you there first.
A credentialed examiner runs and reviews your case. Your investigation is run and reviewed by a credentialed examiner and documented to chain-of-custody standards, with a court-ready report you can hand to an attorney. Examiner review is not a licensure guarantee, and expert testimony is arranged separately, not bundled.
