Home / How it works
The workflow

Simple from your end. Secure from ours.

You send files. We analyze them on encrypted infrastructure. You get results. Files are deleted. That's the whole workflow — here's exactly what's happening at each step.

Step by step

From the field to your report — privately.

01

You upload from anywhere

From your phone in a parking lot or your desk at the office. Surveillance footage, recorded interviews, case documents, photographs. Any format. Uploaded over an encrypted connection — it's already protected the moment it leaves your device.

02

It lands encrypted on our infrastructure

Your files are stored encrypted on our servers. We operate the infrastructure — but because of end-to-end encryption, access to your files is strictly controlled and limited to processing your requests. Data is encrypted at rest on our servers, and access is strictly controlled and logged.

03

The AI works on it privately

Transcription, evidence analysis, report drafting, case search — processed privately. The AI handles your case content without any human at Sable Forensics viewing it, and without it being sent to any third-party AI service.

04

Results come back to you

Timestamped transcripts, fact extractions, drafted reports, search results — delivered to your secure dashboard. Edit, export, or forward to your attorney or client. It's your output, formatted your way.

05

Deleted on your schedule

Set your own retention policy — 30 days, 90 days, or case-close. Files are purged automatically. No indefinite storage of your clients' sensitive information sitting on any server.

The security layer

What "encrypted" actually means here.

A lot of services claim "encrypted" and mean your connection to them is HTTPS. That's table stakes. What we mean is end-to-end encryption — your files are encrypted in transit and encrypted at rest on disk. Processing happens exclusively on our own private infrastructure — your case data is never sent to any external AI service. The meaningful distinction from cloud AI is who touches your data: one dedicated, accountable team versus a massive platform with broad terms of service.

  • Encrypted in transit from your device to our servers
  • Encrypted at rest — unreadable even to our own team
  • No plaintext case data ever stored or logged
  • Only processed within our private infrastructure — no third-party AI access
  • Your retention settings control the data lifecycle

What you don't have to do

You're not managing a server.

Sable Forensics is a service you use, not infrastructure you run. We operate and maintain the servers, the encryption, the AI systems, and the storage. Your job is to investigate. Ours is to handle the technology securely so you can focus on the case.

No software to install

Works from your phone and browser. Upload from the field the moment you wrap a surveillance session.

No maintenance

Updates, security patches, and infrastructure management are our problem, not yours.
