From the Field
Forensic Notes was founded by Robert Merriott, who spent years in law enforcement before transitioning into software development. During his career as a police officer, Robert experienced firsthand the challenges investigators face when documenting cases including the risk of notes being questioned in court, the difficulty of proving when notes were written, and the lack of modern tools built for the investigative workflow.
A Developer's Mission
After transitioning to software development, Robert combined his deep understanding of investigative work with his technical expertise to build a solution that addresses the real-world challenges investigators face every day. The result is Forensic Notes: a platform that provides digitally signed, timestamped, tamper-proof notes that are admissible in court.
Trusted Worldwide
Today, Forensic Notes is used by law enforcement agencies, private investigators, digital forensics professionals, and corporate security teams around the globe. Our mission remains the same: to provide investigators with the tools they need to create documentation that stands up in court and withstands scrutiny.
