The system of record and intelligence layer for digital evidence.
Court-defensible, explainable AI for evidence triage, case workflow, and cross-agency collaboration — built natively on Salesforce Government Cloud.
FedRAMP High Ready · CJIS-aligned · SOC 2 inherited. Selected for the Salesforce Launchpad Program. Now accepting direct investment.
By the Numbers
Disciplined govtech SaaS economics. Milestone-linked capital. Measurable de-risking over 18 months.
Validated 30–50% case-time reduction in live DFU pilot environments. Not a forecast — a measurable conversion plan.
The Problem
- •Digital evidence volumes are exploding—cases now involve terabytes of data across phones, cloud services, and IoT devices
- •Manual review processes can't scale, creating backlogs that delay justice for months or years
- •Current AI tools optimize for speed but lack the transparency, auditability, and chain of custody required for courtroom use
- •There's a trust gap: agencies need AI-assisted analysis, but they can't use "black box" outputs as evidence
- •Every day evidence sits unprocessed is another day justice is delayed—for victims, for the innocent, and for communities waiting for closure
What We're Building
ClearPath.AI is an intelligence layer above extraction—a system of record for AI-assisted analysis that delivers court-ready audit trails and reporting.
- Intelligence layer above extraction: AI-assisted analysis that identifies relevant artifacts, patterns, and anomalies while maintaining complete auditability
- System of record for AI-assisted analysis: Complete chain of custody, version control, and immutable audit trails for every action and decision
- Court-ready audit trail and reporting: Defensible documentation that meets legal standards, with explainable AI decision pathways and human oversight built in
Why Now
Evidence Explosion
Digital evidence volumes are growing exponentially. Cases that used to involve gigabytes now involve terabytes. Manual review processes are breaking under the weight.
AI Adoption Inevitability
AI will be used in nearly every serious investigation within the next decade. The question isn't whether agencies will adopt AI—it's whether they'll use tools that are defensible in court.
Legal Defensibility Gap
Current AI tools aren't built for legal scrutiny. ClearPath.AI addresses the trust gap by building defensibility, transparency, and human oversight into the core architecture from day one.

Business Model
ClearPath.AI will operate on a SaaS licensing model for law enforcement agencies and enterprise customers. Our monetization strategy focuses on recurring revenue through annual subscriptions.
- SaaS licensing for agencies: Annual subscription model with tiered packaging—base platform plus optional add-on AI modules
- Packaging: Base platform with core functionality, plus modular add-ons for specialized AI capabilities and advanced features
- Pricing drivers: Case volume, user seats, storage requirements, and selection of advanced AI modules
- Professional services: Optional implementation support, training, and customization services available as add-ons
ClearPath.AI is currently pre-revenue, with a planned Q1 2027 launch. Our go-to-market strategy prioritizes early pilot programs and regulatory compliance certifications to build trust and demonstrate defensibility before scaling.
Roadmap
Q2 2026 – Complete MVP Development
Finish Phase 1 work—secure case ingestion, multi-label artifact classification, OCR + search, safe preview and initial reporting capabilities.
Q3 2026 – Partner Pilots & Feedback
Engage 1–2 law-enforcement agencies for early user testing and incorporate pilot feedback during QA and UAT.
Q4 2026 – Beta Preparation & Limited Beta
Refine the product based on pilot results, finalize compliance and security features, and expand pilot programs. Beta release: Offer a limited beta to a small cohort of early adopters, execute performance tuning and scale readiness.
Q1 2027 – Full Product Launch
Release ClearPath.AI to the broader market with complete Phase 1 functionality and enhanced reliability.
Timelines may adjust based on pilot feedback and regulatory requirements.
Competitive Advantage
Defensibility by Design
Built from the ground up with courtroom defensibility, explainability, and human oversight as core architectural principles—not add-ons.
Compliance-First Architecture
Regulatory compliance (CJIS, FedRAMP) and chain of custody requirements are engineered into the platform from day one, not retrofitted.
Complete Auditability
Immutable audit trails, version control, and complete documentation for every action and AI-assisted decision—meeting legal standards for evidence.
Role-Based Workflows
Purpose-built for investigative teams with role-specific capabilities, access controls, and collaborative case management designed for legal environments.
System of Record
Not just extraction—ClearPath.AI serves as the authoritative system of record for AI-assisted analysis with complete provenance tracking.
Human-in-the-Loop Default
AI-assisted analysis with mandatory human review, explainable decision pathways, and confidence scoring—ensuring human expertise remains central.
