Social Media Evidence Is Volatile. Act Before It Is Gone

Every hour you delay is another hour of exposure. Social media evidence is volatile by design. Once it is gone, no subpoena can recover it.

🗑

Content Deleted

Respondents routinely delete incriminating posts, videos, and stories the moment they anticipate legal proceedings. Recovery is impossible.

Stories Expire

Instagram Stories vanish after 24 hours. Admissions, threats, and behavioural evidence disappear permanently with no platform-side archive.

🔒

Profiles Go Private

A single privacy toggle locks out your entire evidentiary basis. Once private, publicly posted content becomes procedurally inaccessible.

Metadata Lost

Screenshots lack timestamps, engagement metrics, and forensic provenance. Courts increasingly reject evidence without verifiable chain of custody.

Common Questions About Social Media Evidence

Who uses Social Media Evidence?
Lawyers, law enforcement and private investigators use our social media evidence tools to collect court-admissible TikTok and Instagram evidence, auto-transcribe every video, and search across an entire archive in plain English. It is purpose-built for social media forensics and investigations.
Do I need my own TikTok or Instagram account?
No. You do not need a TikTok or Instagram account to use Social Media Evidence. Simply enter the public username of the account you want to archive and we handle the rest. The tool is built for lawyers, investigators, and litigants who need to preserve someone else's social media content as evidence.
Is this evidence admissible in court?
Our archives include timestamped screenshots, complete metadata, SHA-256 hash verification, and cloud-stored original media files. This provides significantly more forensic provenance than simple screenshots. While admissibility depends on your jurisdiction and the presiding judge, our evidence packages are designed to meet the evidentiary standards expected by courts across common law jurisdictions.
Can I archive private accounts?
We can only archive publicly available content. If an account is set to private, the system cannot access its posts. This is why it is critical to archive evidence early, before the account owner restricts access.
What if the posts get deleted after I archive?
That's exactly what we're built for. Once archived, your evidence is permanently stored in encrypted cloud storage. Even if the original content is deleted from TikTok or Instagram, your archive remains fully intact and accessible.
How long does archiving take?
Most accounts are fully archived within minutes. Our system processes approximately 4-5 seconds per video, including download, transcription, and screenshot capture. You can start browsing evidence early while transcription and comments continue processing in the background.
Can I update an archive later to capture new posts?
Yes. You can re-run the archive at any time to capture new posts that have been added since your last archive. The system intelligently detects and downloads only new content, so updates are fast.
Where is my data stored?
All data is stored in AES-256 encrypted cloud storage with row-level security ensuring complete multi-tenant isolation. Your archives are only accessible to your authenticated account. We do not share or expose any archived data.
What is Forensic AI Search?
Forensic AI Search is our proprietary evidence intelligence engine. It analyses every transcript, caption, comment, and hashtag across your archive, then answers your questions in plain English with direct citations to the specific posts it references. It can locate a critical admission across hundreds of videos in seconds. Work that would take days of manual review.
Can I share evidence with my lawyer?
Yes. You can generate a temporary 48-hour read-only link that gives your lawyer, co-counsel, or collaborator full access to view a specific account's evidence in the same dashboard interface you use, with search, filters, and modals, without creating an account. Links can be revoked at any time.
Do you support Instagram Stories?
Yes. Instagram Stories are automatically captured during archiving, including photos, videos, and metadata. Stories appear alongside regular posts with a purple "Story" tag for easy identification.
