When Mea: Connexus was originally designed, the objective was to create a remote video interview platform that would reduce the length of investigations whilst increasing confidence in the evidential material. To ensure that teams of investigators can transition from physical to virtual meetings, we integrated features that would benefit the investigators, staff, and end users. So, whether you are already a user, trying out the software, or just interested in learning more, our team has compiled a list of our favorite features of the secure video interview platform.

Designed for remote investigation, Mea: Connexus securely archives your meetings, is recordable and retrievable 24/7, and requires no complex installation. Firstly, we will delve into the features that apply specifically to the hosts of interviews, then explore the features that impact the end users.

Features for the Interviewers and Staff:

Silent Observer

  •   A digital two-way mirror to the interview. Send a personalized URL of the video meeting to observers who want to remain hidden from other participants. In the meeting, you can talk with the silent observer through the secure chat without notifying the other participants on the call.
Send a personalised URL to silent observers using the above button under ‘My Interviews’

Case Management

  • Recognising that investigations are largely undertaken by groups of individuals, Mea: Connexus allows organizations to create groups of users that replicate their organizational structure. Group members can collaborate on the review and annotation of video interviews.

Blockchain Validation

  • Mea: Connexus uses Blockchain technology to preserve the evidential integrity of your video meetings. For every meeting you host, we create a unique SHA-256 encryption number which you can then validate using our Blockchain validator.

Bookmarking

  • Bookmark and annotate key points during or after the interview. Hosts of the meeting will have a bookmark icon on their taskbar which, when pressed, will timestamp that point in the interview and allow the host to annotate the bookmark. In addition, the host or silent observer(s) can create bookmarks by using a keyboard shortcut (spacebar) to keep their attention on the interview.

1TB of Storage

  • 1TB of secure cloud storage as standard equates to over 1000 hours of interviewing. If necessary, additional terabytes of storage can be bought per annum.

Multiple Participants

  • Mandatory recording of up to 15 participants with screen sharing. Include and invite all relevant parties to the video meeting with a personalized URL for that specific meeting.

Features for Interviewees:

High-Quality Audio and Video

  • First impressions are important, so we provide users with the highest quality audio and video possible to create an environment comparable to in-person meetings using remote technology.

Device Agnostic

Mea: Connexus – The Video Interview Platform for Security and Integrity

Traditional, in-person investigations can be costly and burdensome for the investigator, staff, and interviewee. They are likely to be inconvenient, and if the meetings are hosted in the interviewee’s home, they can be intrusive.

By using Mea: Connexus, there will be no misinterpretations or discrepancies in the meeting’s content. Alongside mandatory video recordings, which can be accessed after the meeting, the meeting can be verified to ensure no changes have been made to the data using our Blockchain validator.
