Focus on Casework — Not Technical Overhead

SockPuppet provides a secure, anonymous, and fully managed environment for legal teams, compliance departments, and private investigators. Instead of wasting hours creating online identities, dealing with bans, worrying about attribution, or maintaining secure infrastructure, your team gets instant access to ready-to-use investigative personas that simply work.

Legal professionals and private investigators rely on online research for everything from due-diligence to witness verification, insurance claims, internal compliance reviews, and sensitive litigation work. But the time spent building sockpuppets, avoiding account suspensions, handling attribution, and maintaining secure tools adds up quickly — and often takes focus away from the real work.

SockPuppet eliminates that administrative drain. We give you fully managed, secure, unattributed digital identities designed to withstand scrutiny from platforms and adversaries. No IT involvement. No setup. No headaches. Just more time for real investigative work.

Features & Functionality Built for Legal & PI Investigations

Advanced Evidence Memorialization

Go beyond traditional screen-scraping with immutable video recordings of your entire online sessions — every click, scroll, and interaction documented automatically. These files can be replayed, downloaded, and integrated into case-management systems. Every SockPuppet instance includes a ForensicOSINT license for high-clarity screenshots, full-page captures, metadata hashing, and court-ready reporting.

Privilege-Preserving Research Environments

Work inside isolated, encrypted environments that prevent cross-contamination between cases and protect attorney-client privileged research. No activity is tied back to your firm, investigator, client, or device. Perfect for sensitive litigation, due diligence, internal compliance reviews, and matters requiring strict confidentiality.

Eliminate Identity Busywork

Investigators waste up to 20% of their time building and maintaining identities. SockPuppet handles it all — creation, warming, maintenance, and ban recovery — so your team spends more time on cases, and your personas remain stable, credible, and far less likely to get burned.

Seamless Collaboration for Legal Teams & PIs

Multiple investigators can securely access the same identities, share environments, and work cases from anywhere — on their normal devices — without burning time building accounts or risking attribution.
