Real example (anonymized)

Insurance litigation β€” Contested photo

A client needs to send their lawyer a photo showing damage from March 15, 2024.

With CERTIF (2 minutes):

The certified report reveals the photo was taken on March 22, 2024 with an iPhone 15 in Montreal β€” 7 days after the date claimed by the opposing party.

Result: The lawyer was able to immediately challenge the timeline using metadata certified by CERTIF. Case settled favorably.
