Getting started
Your first investigation
Find a subject, review the connections and produce a report.
Professional tools require an approved account. Public searches are available separately without creating a case.
Create a case
Open Investigations, select New investigation, and enter a useful title, description and priority. Open the investigation to work inside its case workspace.
Choose your search
In Investigate, choose the search country and the type of information you have: a person, business name or register number. Enter the most accurate details available and run the search.
Review each possible match
Open the source and compare the name, business, location and identifiers. People can share a name. A matching name or profile is a lead until you have supporting evidence.
Add a useful finding
Use Add to case on a result you want to retain. A web page is saved as a website lead; it does not establish who owns the page. Review saved records in Entities.
Investigate a company connection
For a saved NZ person with company connections, open their details and use Investigate company where available. Review the company record and its director and shareholder roles before adding it to the case.
Record and report
Use Notes for your reasoning and Evidence for supporting files. Review Connections, then open Reports and download the PDF or Word report. Check the finished report before sharing it.
