Courtroom-ready digital evidence infrastructure

Digital evidence that holds up in court.

ChronoForensics transforms raw forensic exports into a structured, auditable, and courtroom-ready evidence presentation — replacing spreadsheets, PDFs, and PowerPoint workflows.

No payment required to start. Used by examiners, prosecutors, and defence solicitors.

Legal defensibility

Built to withstand scrutiny.

Every feature is designed with court admissibility in mind. ChronoForensics doesn't just present evidence — it protects it.

🔒

SHA-256 integrity per item

Every piece of evidence is hashed on ingestion. Any alteration — however small — is detectable.

📋

Tamper-evident audit trail

Every action taken in a case is logged with timestamp and examiner identity. Exportable for disclosure.

🔐

Courtroom lock

Freeze the presentation at any point. Navigation is disabled — no accidental advancement during testimony.

🖥️

Fully offline. No cloud.

No data ever leaves the examiner's machine. No account required to open a shared package.

The problem

The current workflow is broken.

Without ChronoForensics

  • Excel and PowerPoint timelines

    No audit trail. No integrity verification. Easy to challenge.

  • Manual exhibit cross-referencing

    Barristers spend hours reconciling screenshots and PDFs.

  • Disconnected evidence sources

    Each tool exports in a different format. Nothing talks to anything.

  • Rebuilding for every recipient

    Examiners rebuild the same timeline for the expert, the barrister, and defence.

  • £3,000–£8,000 in professional time

    Per case. Before court even starts.

With ChronoForensics

  • Structured, auditable timeline

    SHA-256 integrity on every item. Full audit log. Court-admissible from day one.

  • Exhibit references built in

    Assign court exhibit numbers directly to timeline items. Barristers use the same view.

  • One import, every source

    Cellebrite, AXIOM, Plaso, raw SQLite databases — all unified automatically.

  • Build once, share with everyone

    Export a read-only package. Defence opens it without any software installation.

  • Hours of preparation, not days

    £995 pays for itself the first time your barrister doesn't need to rebuild the timeline.

Workflow

From forensic export to courtroom in six steps.

A clear, repeatable process that every member of the legal team can follow.

01

Import forensic exports

Point ChronoForensics at your tool's output. Cellebrite, AXIOM, Plaso, Oxygen, raw SQLite databases and more are parsed automatically.

02

Build the unified timeline

All evidence from all sources is merged into a single chronological view. Filter by device, type, date, keyword, or contact.

03

Annotate and assign exhibits

Add narrative markers, case notes, and formal exhibit references directly to timeline items. Save filtered views for court.

04

Present in courtroom mode

Full-screen, distraction-free presentation with step-through navigation. Lock the view to prevent accidental advancement during testimony.

05

Share a read-only disclosure package

Export a .chrono.db package for defence. It opens as a fully interactive, read-only case — no licence required.

06

Export the audit trail

Generate a signed PDF audit log — every examiner action, timestamped. Court-ready evidence of chain of custody.

Who uses it

Built for every role in the room.

🔍

Digital Forensic Examiners

Import from any tool. Build once. Share with the entire legal team. No more rebuilding timelines for every recipient.

⚖️

Prosecutors & Advocates

Receive an interactive case package. Present evidence chronologically with full annotations and exhibit references already in place.

📁

Defence Solicitors

Open the read-only disclosure package instantly. Interrogate the full timeline without modifying a single item.

🏛️

Police & Investigation Units

Standardise evidence delivery across your unit. One format. Audit-ready. Courtroom-ready from day one.

What ChronoForensics is not

A presentation layer, not a forensic tool.

Works alongside your existing tools

ChronoForensics does not compete with Cellebrite, AXIOM, or Plaso. It sits downstream — ingesting their output and turning it into something the courtroom can use.

Designed for presentation, not investigation

Forensic investigation happens in your existing toolkit. ChronoForensics is where that work goes when it needs to be explained to a judge or jury.

Replaces PowerPoint and PDF workflows

No more static screenshots. No more manually assembled timelines. Every case is interactive, filterable, and auditable — from import to verdict.
