Services that put social media discovery in your hands.

Comprehensive Discovery

Our reports are the result of a comprehensive search of nearly 600 social media platforms so you can be assured no stone goes unturned.

Preserved for Defensibility

Every result is embedded with source code to properly preserve the information and protect the digital chain of custody.

Custom engagements

Our research process can be applied to your unique case or search parameters and is easily scaled for large projects.

Why Practice Area Alignment Matters

No two legal matters are the same.

Labor and employment disputes, product liability litigation, and insurance investigations each present different timelines, risk profiles, and evidentiary expectations. Information that is appropriate in one context may be irrelevant or problematic in another.

SMI Aware combines the consistency of our smart technology powered by expert analysts using a consistent, disciplined approach while tailoring results to meet your unique research needs. Our reports are customized based on how information will actually be used by attorneys, claims leaders, and decision-makers. This practice-area alignment ensures findings are relevant, proportionate, and documented in a way that supports defensible decision-making, not unnecessary exposure.

Our Process

Secure Matter Intake

Requests are submitted through a secure intake process aligned with matters, claims, and investigations. Scope may be narrow or scaled depending on objectives, timelines, and case complexity.

Analyst Review & Verification

Full-time, US-based professional analysts conduct each search using SMI Aware’s purpose-built technology and standardized methodology. Findings are evaluated for relevance, accuracy, and context across nearly 600 social media and online platforms, as appropriate.

Authentication & Documentation

Relevant findings are authenticated and preserved with underlying source code to support defensibility and maintain the digital chain of custody. Each item is documented with clear sourcing and methodology.

Reporting & Delivery

Results are delivered in court-ready reports structured for legal review, internal decision-making, and evidentiary use. Standard turnaround time is two business days.

Our team supports follow-up questions, supplemental review, and additional discovery as matters evolve.

API Integration

SMI Aware’s API is designed for legal and investigative workflows, enabling discovery requests to be submitted directly from internal systems, case management platforms, or claims environments.

API-submitted matters follow the same disciplined analyst review, authentication, and reporting process as all SMI Aware work. The API supports higher-volume and repeatable workflows without sacrificing judgement, consistency, or defensibility. Special pricing may be available for API-based engagements.
