Who we are

By law enforcement, for law enforcement.

We build the tool we wished we had at the scene, so the people who work shootings get a lead while it still matters.

The First-Hour Gap

The evidence to solve a shooting is already on the ground. The first minutes matter most.

After a shooting, the marks that connect a fired cartridge casing to a weapon, a person, and prior cases are sitting in the brass on the ground. The most valuable investigative window opens right away, while witnesses are still nearby and the scene is still live.

Revelen reads the casing at the scene instead. An officer scans a recovered casing on site and gets an investigative lead in minutes, while witnesses are still present and the scene is still live. The casing still goes to the lab. Chain of custody stays intact. We add a step and remove none.

What we hold to

How we decide what to build.

01 Outcomes over technology

A cleared case is the goal, not the algorithm behind it. If a feature does not help an investigator close a case, it does not ship.

02 Respect for the craft

Investigators and examiners know their work. Revelen puts the reference and the candidate side by side so a trained eye confirms the link, never replaces it.

03 Evidence integrity is non-negotiable

The casing still goes to the lab and chain of custody stays intact. We add intelligence without ever touching the evidence path.
