Divorce Use Case:

A private investigator (let’s call her Sarah) needs to find digital evidence for a divorce case – think texts, emails, hidden accounts. But processing vast amounts of data from phones, laptops, and online sources is time-consuming, requires specialized tools that Sarah does not have the budget for, and risks evidence admissibility. This pulls Sarah away from her core investigative skills and limits her income potential.

The Solution: Paraben for Processing, PI for Profitable Analysis with E3:View

Sarah sends devices and online credentials (with proper legal authorization) to Paraben. Paraben’s experts:

• Extract and normalize active, deleted, and hidden data from all sources.
• Process everything into a single, searchable E3 View case file.
