COMPREHENSIVE SEARCHING Fraud Sniffr finds claimant information using more than just "The Google." Our team is well versed in Boolean search methods as well as the API and background programming for social media outlets such as Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram, Google+ and more. We also have access to online property records, criminal records, and family history in nearly every jurisdiction. We find things that no one else has ever uncovered. Often, we pull content from Google's 'cache' that the claimant had deleted months beforehand. If it was ever indexed, we'll recover it.

ONGOING SCANNING Now let's say you run a social media search on Wednesday, but your claimant runs a marathon on Saturday. With traditional social media surveillance, you'd never see that run. Fraud Sniffr attaches to social media profiles and scans content regularly for the life of the file, delivering RELEVANT RESULTS to your email box each morning. We filter out memes and re-posts so the content is more interesting than you'd imagine.

Insurance Expertise

Our founder, a self-described "30 year claims guy," developed the idea for Fraud Sniffr based on his own frustration at the value of social media data that was muddied by the sheer volume of useless data in most social media reports. His expertise has allowed Fraud Sniffr to fine tune its data delivery to provide only relevant content to adjusters and hide the rest. We have worked closely with TPAs and adjusters in nearly every jurisdiction nationwide, and have developed compliance programs to ensure we continue to provide value year after year. We know insurance.

Software Expertise

Our technical division is run by a serial entrepreneur with more than two decades of experience with natural language algorithms, non-technical user interface development and data management. She was involved with data harvesting and social content distribution long before Facebook even existed. Additionally, our senior staff members have spent their careers in search engine optimization analyzing search algorithms. The entire technical team is comprised of total believers in the cloud and SAAS deployment for the enterprise.
