Archival Practice First
We are archivists before we are software developers. We believe AI should serve sound archival practice, not replace it.
- The original remains authoritative.
- International standards for description (ISAD/RiC).
- The machine suggests, the human reviews.
Start with a defined set from your archive
Select a single collection of documents or manuscripts (typically 1,000–5,000 pages). We will process it through our stack and build a real pilot to demonstrate the system on your own material.
