What We Do
Remote Data Collection
Mobile data plays a critical role in civil litigation, regulatory compliance, and internal investigations. Smartphones are often the most revealing source of communications, context, and metadata in investigations and audits. But traditional collection methods require devices in-hand, lengthy delays, or risky apps that don’t scale.
ModeOne is the only solution that delivers fully remote, same-day mobile, targeted data collection, without ever needing physical access to the device.
As operating systems grow more complex and security protocols tighten, older data collection techniques like manual onsite collections, device cloning, and user-assisted exports are creating new issues—technical delays, defensibility concerns, and growing resistance from users. ModeOne eliminates these friction points with a fully automated, remote-first solution that brings the collection process directly to the custodian—no shipping, no scheduling delays, and no need for onsite support.
We believe remote doesn’t mean compromised. That’s why ModeOne built the industry’s first global, 100% remote mobile data acquisition service—capable of collecting targeted data up to 25 times faster than conventional methods. Designed for litigation teams who need speed, scale, and defensibility, our platform redefines what’s possible in remote mobile data collection.
Targeted Acquisition
Bulk imaging of each custodian’s device isn’t just inefficient—it puts both privacy and compliance at risk. As federal regulations increasingly mandate that organizations preserve all relevant data—including mobile communications—companies face significant challenges. Full-device collections tend to pull in vast swaths of irrelevant personal data like photos, notes, and emails. This slows down workflows and needlessly exposes custodians.
Instead of capturing everything, we enable you to pinpoint and collect only the specific application data relevant to your matter—SMS, messaging app communications, or select dossiers—while deliberately excluding personal content. This deliberate focus saves time and lowers cost but also upholds custodian privacy and minimizes legal exposure.
This approach isn’t just about efficiency—it’s built for defensibility. By designing workflows around targeted collections and maintaining a chain of custody, ModeOne ensures collected data remains both authentic and audit-ready.
ModeOne equips your organization to meet these demands with precision—reducing over-collection, protecting privacy, cutting costs, and delivering only what matters. It’s a smarter, faster, and more defensible way to collect mobile data in today’s regulatory environment.
Full-device imaging pulls in irrelevant personal data, slows down workflows and increases legal risk, especially as regulatory scrutiny grows.
ModeOnes’s Targeted Acquisition is the smart alternative.
We collect only what matters–SMS, messaging app data, or other specific content–while excluding personal information. This focused approach protects privacy, reduces cost, and accelerates response times.
It’s not just efficient–it’s defensible.
ModeOne maintains chain of custody and audit readiness from start to finish, helping compliance and legal teams meet today’s demands without the baggage of overcollection.
Speed to Facts
The timeline from collection to analysis can make—or break—a case.
ModeOne ensures that collected mobile data is available within hours, not days or weeks, so teams can respond to inquiries with clarity and confidence. For large-scale matters, legacy workflows—often limited to just a few devices per day—fail to keep pace. By contrast, ModeOne’s architecture can complete hundreds of collections simultaneously. See how ModeOne recently collected 325 custodians’ devices in under 80 hours.
Custodians keep their phones, and legal teams retain full control of scope and chain of custody. Resulting in rapid, defensible data acquisition that aligns with strict deadlines and keeps investigations on track.
Beyond efficiency, ModeOne eliminates the friction of outdated processes—no shipping, no manual handoffs, and no prolonged downtimes. Setup takes minutes, not days, keeping devices in custodians’ hands while data flows swiftly back to analysis teams. In short: ModeOne builds speed into every stage—collection, analysis, and response—so you can meet strict timelines, reduce legal risk, and get to case facts faster than ever before.
Transparent Flat-Fee Per Device
At ModeOne, predictability isn’t just a nice-to-have—it’s baked into our offering. We provide a transparent flat-fee per device, typically at least 50% lower than legacy mobile collection providers, covering everything from collection to processing and file conversion. This eliminates hidden costs and fee surprises that can derail case budgets and planning.
For clients with ongoing or high-volume needs, our volume-based subscription model adds another layer of financial clarity. Whether you’re handling a single matter or managing sustained collection needs, these subscription tiers provide full visibility into how costs scale—ensuring every dollar aligns with expected usage and litigation timelines.
That independence directly translates into value: a powerful, reliable remote collection solution that scales intelligently and remains budget-friendly for in-house counsel, legal operations, and eDiscovery teams.
Multi‑Use Functionality
Whether fighting fraud in HR, enforcing regulatory edicts, maintaining compliance standards, or investigating internal affairs, professionals across departments increasingly rely on mobile messaging to build their cases. From SMS and WhatsApp to Signal and email, each platform comes with unique formats, encryption levels, deletion policies, and forensic considerations. ModeOne’s flexible architecture is designed to accommodate those nuances, delivering precisely the right data for your investigation without unnecessary baggage.
HR and Internal Affairs teams can collect only the short-message data they need – texts, app chats, internal logs – all while excluding private content like photos or personal notes. This supports fast, focused investigations without privacy risks or over-collection.
Compliance and Regulatory teams can scale effortlessly across geographies and devices, scoping collections by app and timeframe. This ensures accuracy, reduces noise, and simplifies regulatory response.
ModeOne’s remote-first platform supports targeted, secure transfers – keeping custodians productive while saving time, cost, and bandwidth.
