The most reliable automated forensic preservation tool for social media & web content
Get started
LEGALLY ADMISSIBLE FOR EDISCOVERY
We collect metadata and HTML source code, and place a digital signature and timestamp on all preservations, creating sound, reliable evidence that complies with the E-Sign Act, Federal Rules of Evidence, and other regulations.

RESOLVE ANY CONCERNS OF SPOLIATION
All preservations are stored on your local hardware to protect your legal chain of custody and mitigate intellectual property issues. We don’t store your data remotely!

EFFORTLESS USER ADOPTION
WebPreserver streamlines the process of capturing and storing preservations for evidence. Preserve, store, organize, and export within the same user-friendly platform.

WebPreserver is one of the most important litigation support tools your firm will ever purchase. Why? Because life is recorded online, and a lion’s share of incriminating evidence ends up there. Hence its name, WebPreserver is designed to properly preserve it.
As of 2019, there are 3.84 Billion social media
users worldwide, including:

2.2 Billion Active Facebook Accounts

800 Million Active Instagram Accounts

330 Million Active Twitter Accounts

260 Million Active Linkedin Accounts

225 Million Active Snapchat Accounts
According to a 2017 survey by Robert Half Legal, 52% of lawyers have reported an increase over the past two years in lawsuits involving posts, images, and data found on social media.
According to the ILTA 2018 Litigation and Practice Support Survey, 90% of law firms conducted social media discovery that year, with a 46% increase in firms handling at least 20 matters per year involving social media evidence.
Demographics continue to fuel the meteoric rise of social media in litigation.
Simple Screenshots are Not Enough!
Screenshots and simple PDF files can be easily altered with readily available editing tools. Digital evidence requires proof of authenticity under the Federal Rules of Evidence (FRE) 901. Per FRE902, social media evidence is not self-authenticating. New additions to FRE902, sections 13 & 14, further strengthen the requirement for forensic preservation.
-
Social media evidence must pass the same barriers as other types of trial evidence: relevance, authentication, and Rule 403, among others.
When there is no dispute as to authenticity of ESI, 902(13) and (14) should help achieve the laudable goal of reducing the expense of litigation. Rather than present live testimony of a foundation witness, the proponent establishes authenticity under 902(13) and (14) by presenting a certification containing information that would be sufficient to establish authenticity if the information were provided by testimony at a hearing or trial.

Solve Preservation Challenges
Recent and ongoing changes to social media platforms further complicate proper preservation of content, both in terms of complete data collection and privacy considerations.
-
Since 2018’s Cambridge Analytica scandal, collection has been difficult due to platforms like facebook limiting API availability.
Wired Magazine
-
Facebook is significantly limiting data available from Facebook’s Events, Groups, and Pages APIs plus Facebook Login, as well as Instagram accounts. Facebook is also shutting down search by email or user name and changing its account recovery system after discovering malicious actors were using these to scrape people’s data.

-
With recent technological changes to Facebook and Instagram, WebPreserver has become our preferred method for capturing those accounts.
