Standards-ready draft metadata from digitised collections — dramatically faster than manual description.
Upload documents, photographs, audio, and video. Review AI-generated descriptions with confidence flags and full provenance. Export to EAD3, BagIt, AtoM, ArchivesSpace, and more — under archivist control at every step.
The Challenge
Thousands of archives have been digitised, yet remain poorly catalogued. Rich stories sit locked inside unstructured data — manuscripts, photographs, recordings — invisible to researchers and the public. Without meaningful metadata, your collection is a room full of unlabelled boxes.
What We Do
The Archiver reads every file — handwritten manuscripts, photographs, audio, video — and generates ISAD(G)-aligned metadata with per-field confidence flags. You review, override where needed, and export in formats your systems already use: EAD3, BagIt with PREMIS, Dublin Core, AtoM CSV, and more.
“Nothing is published without archivist review.”
How It Works
Drop in documents, images, audio, or video — any format, any size.
The Archiver extracts text via OCR, identifies document types, dates, people, and places.
Check the AI's classifications, correct anything, add custom fields.
Full-text search, AI research chat, and export in EAD3, BagIt, CSV, and more.
Who We Help
