Certified acquisition of Instagram direct messages

Capture the content of an Instagram DM conversation as forensic-grade digital evidence. Screen recording, screenshots and the exported file are sealed at the source, immutable from the moment of capture.

Why a screenshot is not enough

In a dispute, a plain screenshot is easy to challenge: it can be generated or altered. An Instagram conversation acquired and certified at the source fixes its content so it cannot be changed afterwards.

Easily altered proof

A screenshot can be edited or faked. A sealed acquisition keeps the conversation immutable from the moment it is captured.

Content fixed at the source

What was said, and when, is recorded live and sealed, so the conversation cannot be modified after the fact.

Profile as shown

The visible profile and @username are documented during the recording, capturing the account details available at that time.

Content that cannot be contested

Digital evidence must be collected without alteration, carry trustworthy time and origin, and keep a chain of custody. TrueScreen delivers this at the source: an official seal and timestamp with legal value, with time and GPS on every file. Unlike an ordinary screenshot, the conversation cannot be edited or contested.

How certification works

TrueScreen applies a forensic methodology that captures, verifies, certifies and preserves the conversation, so the result stands as digital evidence.

01

Forensic acquisition

Capture preserves authenticity at the source, with no alteration by AI, people or software.

02

Verification

The acquired information is verified before it is sealed.

03

Certification

An official digital seal and timestamp are applied, internationally recognized and legally incontestable.

04

Preservation

Certified evidence is kept on secure systems, ready for the file.

How the acquisition works

Open the conversation and capture it while it is in front of you. Screen recording is the core step; screenshots and the exported file strengthen the evidence.

Context and sign off After capturing, you add the counterpart’s name and @username and any context notes. An optional video signature can be added. Everything is bound into one certified report with full forensic metadata.
