The problem

Medicolegal death investigation operates at the intersection of healthcare, public health, and the justice system—yet it runs on fragmented tools never designed to work together.

Scene investigation, case management, laboratory testing, staffing, body transportation, and statutory reporting each live in separate systems, spreadsheets, emails, or paper workflows. Professionals are forced to manually bridge these gaps under intense time pressure and legal scrutiny.

Our approach

Locarda builds infrastructure that connects the full medicolegal investigation lifecycle. We replace fragmented tools with a continuously improving system of record.

Our AI captures structured information once and carries it across investigations. The system learns from local templates, jurisdictional standards, and individual workflows to personalize outputs and improve accuracy over time.

Built for counties

Locarda's primary customers are county governments that operate coroner or medical examiner offices. Counties fund, procure, and own the systems used to manage death investigations and are ultimately accountable for outcomes.

Within these counties, elected coroners, chief medical examiners, forensic pathologists, and forensic investigators are the core users who run daily operations.

Why we do this

The work done by coroners, forensic pathologists, and investigators is critical, time-sensitive, and often under-resourced—yet supported by outdated systems. These teams carry legal, public health, and community responsibility.

We believe modern infrastructure should match the importance of their role. Better systems lead to clearer outcomes, faster processes, and stronger trust in the medicolegal system.
