SMI is the longest-running social media evidence collection and preservation company, founded on the proprietary technology that enables the company to locate, export, and preserve information from social media, search engines, public records, and the deep web. The company helps legal professionals, insurance claims investigators, private investiga... tors, government agencies and financial institutions find and analyze web-based evidence for use in due diligence collection, background checks, fraud investigation, and criminal cases. SMI was founded in 2011 to provide essential social media intelligence to the background screening industry. The team had experience in quality, continuous improvement, web search, background screening, operational management, sales, and startups. They quickly built a social media and web search engine and began added additional capabilities based upon market feedback. While building a customer base of pre-employment background screening companies and financial institutions SMI began to receive calls from licensed investigators, law firms, and insurance companies looking to use the search product for their cases. This growing customer base had a different need; curated reports. They wanted the data that SMI's technology was able to locate, but vetted by an analyst in a ready to use format. To meet customer demand, SMI transformed into managed services company with a team of certified analysts who operate the proprietary technology in house to produce custom, curated reports. Listening to customer requests for preserved, defensible social media evidence, SMI created the Export product as a complete capture of web-based information that Is authenticated and defensible. SMI continues to evolve the company's proprietary software so the company's growing team of in-house analysts can extract, preserve information from evolving and emerging social networks. SMI now services a range of clients with similar needs and the company would like to help you too.Read More
