Every meaningful change to the Evident ICU platform — features, infrastructure updates, security fixes, and policy changes. Newest first. Subprocessor additions are published here at least 30 days before they take effect. Security fixes are disclosed after patches are deployed.
Restructured primary navigation into five groups: Platform, By Role, Pricing, Trust, and Company. Added dedicated audience pages for Prosecutors, Police Evidence Units, and Judges & Courts, each with full sirens layout, workflow documentation, FAQ, and liability scope statement. Added Case Studies (illustrative workflow patterns), Design Partners program page, Data Residency, Subprocessors, Changelog, and Status pages.
Replaced all Google Fonts CDN dependencies with self-hosted woff2 font files (Playfair Display, Lora, Inter, Courier Prime). No font data is transmitted to third-party CDNs. All @font-face declarations serve from /assets/fonts/ on the Evident ICU domain. GDPR and privacy-first compliant. Fixes apple-touch-icon reference (SVG → PNG 180×180).
Footer updated to carry operator entity disclosure (entity name, formation jurisdiction, and legal/security/support contact addresses). Added Trust & Legal navigation group surfacing DPA, BAA, Subprocessors, Data Residency, and Changelog. Added security.txt at /.well-known/security.txt for vulnerability disclosure.
Evident ICU matters can now be linked to private GitHub repositories. When linked, signed release manifests and evidence metadata are committed as a custody record in the linked repository. Raw evidence files are not transmitted to GitHub — only hash manifests and chain-of-custody summaries are written. This integration is opt-in and disabled by default.
Pipeline worker Dockerfile updated: CPU-only PyTorch via --extra-index-url (download.pytorch.org/whl/cpu), stripped NVIDIA libraries from the final image (~4GB reduction), removed .pyo and .a files from Python site-packages. Dependencies pinned to exact versions: torch 2.8.0+cpu, torchaudio 2.8.0+cpu, fastapi 0.115.12, uvicorn 0.34.0.
AI-assisted analysis launched with multiple review modes: timeline reconstruction, discrepancy detection, speaker attribution, privilege identification, redaction suggestion, narrative consistency, metadata cross-reference, document classification, OCR validation, exhibit preparation, and chain-of-custody summary. All outputs are source-cited, labeled as AI-generated, and human-reviewable before any production action. Available Core tier and above.
Processing pipeline now records stage-level timing and confidence scores for each pipeline stage. Confidence scores are surfaced in the review workbench alongside the output — users can see how confident the pipeline is in each transcript segment, OCR block, or detection result before relying on it. Low-confidence outputs are flagged for manual review.
Production export now generates both Concordance (.dat/.opt) and Relativity-compatible load files alongside native files and TIFF images. Bates numbering, privilege log, redaction burn-in, and hash manifest are included in all production bundles. PDF/A-2b archival format available on Complete tier and above.
Seven-tier pricing launched: Free, Starter, Core, Complete, Team, Department, Enterprise. Free and Starter tiers cover solo and pro se use cases. Core adds chain-of-custody controls and Bates export. Team and above add shared review workspaces. Department adds administrative controls and high-volume pipeline throughput. Enterprise is custom for agencies with special deployment requirements.
Chain-of-custody ledger architecture finalized: append-only by application-layer enforcement and PostgreSQL constraint. Each entry records the previous entry's hash for tamper detection. Access events, processing stages, privilege flags, redactions, annotations, and export events all log to the ledger. No entry can be edited or deleted by any user or application code path.
Evident Technologies LLC formed as a New Jersey limited liability company on 5 February 2026. Managing member: Devon Tyler Barber. Operating entity for Evident ICU and all Evident Technologies products.
SHA-256 hash computation at file intake launched. Every uploaded evidence file receives a hash at the moment of upload, before any pipeline processing begins. Originals are locked — the intake hash is the permanent record of the file as received. All derivatives carry their own hash plus a reference to the source file hash. Hash manifests are included in all production exports.
Subprocessor additions and material changes to data handling practices are announced here and via email to account owners at least 30 days before taking effect. Security disclosures are published after patches are deployed to avoid advance notice of vulnerabilities.
