Investigative Integrity for the Real World
Strengthening protected-class investigations through expert support, advanced training, and investigative AI designed by practitioners.
Defensible under scrutiny, actionable inside your organization.
Protected-Class Investigations Require Clarity, Consistency, and Structure
Protected-class investigations carry unique legal, cultural, and organizational expectations. Even experienced teams encounter challenges when managing multiple cases, evolving standards, or limited bandwidth.
Common points of strain include:
tightening timelines
inconsistencies across investigators
documentation that needs more discipline
neutrality concerns in close-knit environments
newer investigators needing clearer structure
difficulty applying policy elements consistently
balancing fairness, clarity, and defensibility in findings
None of this reflects a lack of competence.
It reflects the complexity and sensitivity of the work.
Structured support strengthens the process and the people doing the work.

AI-supported investigation intelligence designed specifically for protected - class investigators.
Most AI tools were built for HR operations or general legal research, not the realities of protected-class investigative practice.
As a result, many general-purpose AI tools are not designed to support the analytical rigor and fairness considerations required in protected-class investigations.
INVEXTRA is being built differently:
built on a defined investigation methodology
protected-class investigation reasoning pathways
investigator-designed logic and prompts
fairness-aware analytical guidance
ethical guardrails that preserve human judgment
INVEXTRA elevates investigator expertise, it doesn’t replace it.
Limited beta access for protected-class investigators.
A Track Record of Trusted, Defensible Work
“I've worked with dozens of investigators. Dr. Booker stands apart.
She doesn't just conduct investigations, she transforms how organizations handle them.
She built frameworks that turned rookies into solid investigators in months. She handled our most volatile cases without flinching or cutting corners. When our processes were broken, she fixed them without waiting for permission.
If you need someone to check boxes, hire anyone. If you want someone who will elevate your entire operation, call By-the- Book.”
— Dr. Leonard Moore, University of Texas at Austin
