What Forseti, LLC does

Forseti, LLC is a Phoenix-headquartered, Delaware-formed software company founded in 2019 that builds the HART (Honest Assessment Response Tool) platform — a CJIS-compliant, AWS-hosted mobile software system purpose-built for law enforcement and victim advocacy organizations to collect, share, and report on domestic violence, homelessness, mental health, substance abuse, and field-arrest incidents under formal MOU agreements. The product portfolio is architected as a core platform with layered add-on modules: HART DV Supplemental, HART Strangulation, HART Translation, the state-agnostic MNADV LAP (Lethality Assessment Program) module, and state-specific mobile applications for iOS and Android across North Carolina, Minnesota, Wisconsin, South Carolina, Oklahoma, and Virginia. LEIF (Lethality Evaluation & Insight Framework) is a proprietary analytics dashboard embedded within HART that provides aggregated local, jurisdictional, and state-level reporting alongside a Weekly DV Brief derived from national and regional news sources.

The company monetizes through subscription SaaS licensing on quote-based annual terms to government agencies and partner advocacy organizations, with revenue split between core platform licensing and analytics/reporting services; specific pricing is not publicly disclosed. Forseti's go-to-market combines enterprise field sales into government and law enforcement with a channel-partner motion anchored by the Maryland Network Against Domestic Violence (MNADV), whose LAP network provides access to more than 1,000 agencies across 39 states. Compliance posture — SOC 2 Type II certification obtained in 2024 and a 2026 CJIS Letter of Attestation — is positioned as a procurement-grade differentiator for the U.S. criminal-justice software market. The company operates with a lean disclosed team (Walter Lautz and Warren Lautz), no institutional funding rounds on record, and no parent company; it appears to be founder/family-controlled with growth driven by state-level advocacy and government partnerships rather than venture-backed scaling.

Core offering

Forseti develops and licenses the HART (Honest Assessment Response Tool) mobile software platform, which enables law enforcement officers to conduct domestic violence lethality assessments, homelessness encounters, field arrests, and animal shelter/foster assessments, and to securely share victim/survivor and suspect information with government agencies and victim advocacy groups via MOU agreements. The platform is hosted on CJIS-compliant AWS infrastructure and supplemented by the proprietary LEIF analytics dashboard, specialized assessment modules, and state-specific mobile applications.

Product overview

Forseti, LLC offers a platform-plus-modules architecture centered on HART (Honest Assessment Response Tool), a cloud-hosted mobile software platform for law enforcement and social services agencies. HART is the core product, designed to collect and securely share domestic violence, homelessness, mental health, substance abuse, and field arrest incident information with government agencies and victim advocacy groups via MOUs. The product portfolio includes several add-on modules: HART DV Supplemental and HART Strangulation (specialized assessment modules), HART Translation (multilingual support), the MNADV LAP module (state-agnostic lethality assessment in partnership with the Maryland Network Against Domestic Violence), state-specific mobile apps (NC, WI, SC, OK, VA), and the LEIF analytics dashboard providing aggregated reporting and weekly DV briefings. Secure cloud hosting is powered by AWS with CJIS compliance.

Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• ESO: ESO provides data, research, and workflow software to fire, EMS, and broader public-safety agencies. While primarily EMS-focused, it competes for adjacent agency analytics and reporting spend that overlaps with Forseti's LEIF analytics and aggregated-reporting capabilities.
• Mark43: Mark43 provides cloud-native public-safety software (RMS, CAD, analytics) sold to the same police agencies as Forseti. It is a direct competitor for CJIS-compliant agency-wide platform budgets and represents the most product-comparable SaaS peer in the modern public-safety stack.

Emerging players

• Raptor Technologies: Raptor Technologies provides visitor/threat-management and incident-management software primarily for K-12 schools, but its background-check and incident-workflow modules are an adjacent reference point for CJIS-style secure information sharing in sensitive environments.

Broad incumbents

• Intrado (Emergency Communications): Intrado provides 911/emergency communications and records solutions to public-safety agencies. Its VAPIX/RMS-adjacent products overlap with HART's information-sharing mission across the same CJIS-compliant procurement context.
• Motorola Solutions: Motorola Solutions sells CommandCentral and broader public-safety software suites (CAD, RMS, mobile data) to the same law enforcement buyers Forseti targets, and competes for CJIS-compliant platform spend across state and local agencies.
• Tyler Technologies (Public Safety): Tyler's Public Safety division sells New World RMS, CAD, and mobile solutions to law enforcement agencies in the same procurement pipelines as Forseti, with similar CJIS compliance requirements and government sales motion.
• Axon Enterprise: Axon is a dominant law-enforcement technology provider (body cameras, TASER, digital evidence, records) that has been expanding into software adjacent to Forseti's space, including AI-driven reporting and case-building tools that overlap with HART's documentation and information-sharing role.
• CentralSquare Technologies: CentralSquare sells Public Safety Pro (CAD/RMS) and Citizen Services software to municipalities and law enforcement, competing for the same agency IT budgets that fund HART deployments.

Regional players

• Crime Survivors for Safety and Justice: CSSJ is a victim-advocacy nonprofit that focuses on policy and services for crime survivors. While not a software vendor, it operates in the same DV/survivor-services ecosystem and is a stakeholder in the lethality-assessment and inter-agency information-sharing space Forseti serves.

Others

• LexisNexis Risk Solutions (Public Safety): LexisNexis Risk Solutions supplies data and analytics tools (including Accurint for Law Enforcement) used by the same agencies as Forseti. It is not a direct competitor but addresses overlapping CJIS-compliant information-sharing and analytics use cases in adjacent workflows.
