Introducing Magnet Verify: the next evolution of Medex

We are pleased to announce that Medex, the trusted solution for authenticating media and countering manipulated content, is now officially part of the Magnet Forensics family!

As we continue to grow and evolve, we are excited to share that Medex will now be known as Magnet Verify.

A patented solution for authentication and media verification

Digital media plays a critical role in modern investigations, but is often compromised by manipulations, deepfakes, and missing metadata. Researchers need a reliable tool to validate media and provide legally defensible evidence. This is where Magnet Verify (formerly Medex) comes into play.

Unlike any other solution, Magnet Verify uncovers critical information beyond standard metadata and visible content. By leveraging proprietary technology, it can detect alterations and AI-generated media, validate the authenticity of media, and trace the source of images and videos, ensuring investigators can trust their evidence.

The name change from Medex to Magnet Verify is part of our broader effort to unify all Magnet Forensics products under a single brand, allowing us to better serve our global community of digital forensic professionals. Rest assured, Magnet Verify retains all the powerful capabilities you've come to rely on with Medex, but now offers even more.

Expanded capabilities: now authenticate images

As part of this release, we are excited to share that Magnet Verify now supports image authentication in addition to video.

Examiners and investigators can now obtain reliable results for both still images and video files with the same advanced capabilities, ensuring a comprehensive approach to media authentication. With this expanded functionality, Magnet Verify enables prosecutors and forensic professionals to build stronger, more defensible cases by ensuring the authenticity of all types of media evidence.
