We’re showing your evidence some love this February. Here’s what’s new this month.
Evidence.com Integration with Axon
You can now import files directly from Axon Evidence.com into Longeye. Folder structures are preserved, and files stream directly to your case without manual downloads. This feature is available by request—just let us know if you’d like it enabled for your organization.
Find the Right Images, Faster
- Search by AI relevance notes — When our AI analyzes your images, it notes why each one might matter—“shows suspect,” “potential weapon,” “document evidence.” You can now search these notes directly to find exactly what you need.
- Hide small images — One toggle filters out icons, thumbnails, and other visual noise so you can focus on meaningful evidence.
New Filters in Explorers
- Filter calls by phone number — Multi-select filter on the Calls page lets you quickly find all recordings involving specific phone numbers.
- Filter by file type — New dropdown on the Evidence page lets you show only PDFs, audio files, images, or other types.
- Sort audio/video by duration — Find short clips or long interviews instantly with the new duration sort option.
Smarter AI Chat
- Chat scope toggle for social media — Choose whether you want the AI to focus on just the current conversation or search across your entire case.
- Custom formatting — Ask for summaries in your preferred style—bullet points, narrative, or anything else.
- Copy AI responses — Easily copy any summary or chat response to paste into your reports.
Audio, Video & Documents
- Copy transcripts — New button lets you copy the full transcript with one click. Works with translated transcripts too.
- Word documents viewable as PDFs — We now convert .doc/.docx files automatically, preserving comments so you can view them directly in your browser.
- PDF titles in chat — Document chat now shows the actual PDF title instead of the filename.
- Large PDFs load smoothly — Massive PDF reports (like Cellebrite exports) now load in your browser with page-by-page navigation, so you can scroll through thousands of pages without waiting.
Navigation & UX
- Redesigned Home page — Two-column layout keeps your case metrics visible while you explore themes and highlights.
- Redesigned Image filters — We moved the filters on the Image page into their own column on the left side so that you can focus as much screen space as you’d like on viewing the images themselves, as we continue to make Image analysis even better with more filters in the future.
- Deep-linking from Files page — Click the audio, video, or image badge on any file to jump directly to that item in the explorer.
- Incident alerts — If we’re experiencing issues, you’ll see a status banner in the sidebar.
- Password-protected files — Now clearly labeled instead of showing confusing error messages.
Wins from the Field
Every month, investigators across the country use Longeye to break cases faster. Here are a few recent highlights:
- South San Francisco PD — During an on-site training, a detective uploaded 25 hours of jail calls from an attempted homicide case. Within 5 minutes, Longeye surfaced a Spanish-language call where the suspect instructed his girlfriend to coordinate alibis with his co-defendant’s girlfriend.
- Oklahoma DOC — An investigator uploaded PayPal and Green Dot records from a fraud victim. Longeye identified the payments that matched the exact amounts and timing the victim had described, saving hours of manual review.
- Oklahoma City PD — A Spanish-speaking officer had reviewed jail calls and reported nothing relevant. When the detective ran the same calls through Longeye, the AI found a confession buried in just a few seconds of audio that had been missed, which provided critical evidence in a case with no DNA.

Tip from Investigators
Export PDF reports from Cellebrite. When you export a Cellebrite extraction as a PDF report, Longeye can search through text messages, emails, call history, and more—all at once. It’s a fast way to surface what matters across an entire phone dump.
Under the Hood
We fixed 45+ bugs this month, including face bounding boxes not appearing on images, citation links breaking in social media chat, and large ZIP files (100GB+) failing to extract.
Performance: Evidence page search is now near-instant thanks to a new database index—no more waiting when you have thousands of files.
Reliability: Large file uploads can now be resumed if they’re interrupted. Just re-select the same file to pick up where you left off.
Security: We patched 2 authentication vulnerabilities and added encryption across additional storage services to keep your data protected.
