Internet research & education for inmates
Everyone deserves a friend on the outside.
The internet is out of reach behind bars. Webb Hunter bridges the gap — researching any legal, educational, or personal topic and mailing printed results straight to an inmate, anywhere in the U.S.

Ten ways to help someone inside
Every result is printed and mailed within institutional guidelines. Fees mainly cover research time — much less than what online companies charge the public. Click any service for full details.
Educational Research
Institutional libraries have a limited selection of quality textbooks. We make online research available to those who want to pursue an up-to-date education while incarcerated.
Legal Research
Publicly available case decisions and codes of law for those who need to pursue legal remedies for the system's past or present injustices and failures.
Quick Info
Sometimes a little piece of information makes all the difference. A cost-effective service for items that can be quickly found — recipes, quotes, or scripture.
Graphics Research
Sometimes words aren't what you need. Request the image you want and the type of drawing — up to four publication-policy-compliant images per graphic.
Book Purchasing
Mail-order vendors offer a limited catalog and take months to deliver. We order from Amazon's vast selection — delivery is fast and direct from the vendor.
Magazine Subscriptions
Many services exploit inmates with delayed or non-delivery of a periodical. We use the Barnes & Noble newsstand — reliable service and rates.
Webb Pages
Research formatted to give you essential info in minimum space. Our customers' most-requested topics, compiled into money-saving pamphlets.
Photocopy & Writing Relay
Your bridge between paper and the digital world. We print your emails and mail them, scan your mail to email, and make standard photocopies.
A.I. Writing
The perfect words for important occasions. Send your ideas or original composition and get clear, confident, audience-appropriate writing back.
A.I. Graphics
A one-of-a-kind image created from nothing but your words. Describe the picture in your head and the art style you want, and we'll bring it to life.
