Medex Forensics

What Medex Forensics does

Magnet Forensics is a private digital forensics and media authentication software vendor headquartered in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, selling to law enforcement agencies, federal departments, military and intelligence organizations, corporate security teams, and forensic service providers globally. The company operates a platform-plus-modules architecture anchored by Magnet One, a cloud-based platform that integrates a portfolio spanning mobile device acquisition (Graykey, Verakey, Autokey), evidence collection and analysis (Axiom, Axiom Cyber, Nexus), media investigations (Griffeye, Verify, Witness), collaboration (Review), and lab automation (Automate).

Magnet Verify, the media authentication product, uses patented technology built on custom forensic file parsers and what the company describes as the world's largest vetted encoding reference library to authenticate video, image, and audio files by examining their digital structure, detect synthetic and AI-generated content, identify source cameras and software, reconstruct generational history, and produce explainable reports designed to support courtroom admissibility.

The company generates revenue primarily through software licensing and subscription arrangements sold via an enterprise field sales motion with quote-based pricing, supported by global channel partner, training partner, and technology integration partner networks. Note: the firmographic header identifies the company as "Medex Forensics" (Madison, US, 1-10 employees, founded 2021), but the substantive source material — including product URLs on magnetforensics.com, customer testimonials, sales contact details ([email protected], 1-844-638-7884), and the leadership entry for CEO and co-founder Bertram Lyons — consistently describes Magnet Forensics. The analysis above is grounded in the substantive source data.

Core offering

Medex Forensics develops software for video authentication to fight digital crime and disinformation. The company's tools examine the digital structure of media files to determine authenticity, detect synthetic and AI-generated content, identify the source camera, device, or software used to encode the media, and provide explainable reporting that establishes provenance for use as evidence.

Product overview

Magnet Forensics offers a platform-plus-modules architecture for digital investigations. The core platform is Magnet One, which links all products together through the cloud. The product portfolio spans five categories: ACQUISITION (Magnet Graykey for mobile device extraction, Magnet Verakey for consent-based extraction, Magnet Autokey for vehicle data); COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS (Magnet Axiom for unified evidence recovery, Magnet Axiom Cyber for corporate investigations, Magnet Nexus for remote endpoint collection); COLLABORATION (Magnet Review for evidence sharing); MEDIA INVESTIGATIONS (Magnet Griffeye for media processing, Magnet Verify for media authentication, Magnet Witness for video acquisition and analysis); and LAB AUTOMATION (Magnet Automate for workflow automation). Products integrate with each other through Magnet One to enable seamless workflows across the investigative lifecycle.
