For professional archivists

ISAD(G)-aligned drafts. EAD3 out. The archivist decides.

Every drafted field arrives with its evidence attached, or a plain flag that it has none. Nothing enters your catalogue until you accept it.

What you get

Built around the review gate.

The discipline you already work to, applied to a first draft you did not have to type.

An Archivers.ai record awaiting review: a personal-data flag, an expandable rationale explaining how the date and location were inferred, and evidence marks beside the drafted title, date, creator and description fields
Review

Every field shows its working.

Evidence cited on each suggestion, flagged where there is none, and personal data raised before anyone signs anything off.

  • Evidence cited on every suggestion
  • Reasoning you can read and challenge
  • Amend any field, then accept the record
  • Checked against the original scanned page, with a permanent link back to it
How we use AI
The Archivers.ai reference code panel with Manual, CSV upload and Auto-sequence options, a base reference of bd/1/ applied across five files, and each file showing its own editable reference code
Reference numbers

The number is king.

Reference codes are set by you, sequenced inside your own scheme, and never regenerated behind your back.

  • Manual, CSV upload or auto-sequence
  • Sub-numbering within your existing scheme
  • Carried through every outbound export
Standards and honest limits
A completed Archivers.ai accession listing five reviewed items, above an export panel offering a PDF report, BagIt, and catalogue exports for EAD3 XML, AtoM CSV, ArchivesSpace CSV and Archivematica CSV
Export

Standards out, nothing stranded.

Reviewed records leave in open formats, into the repository or system of record you already run.

  • EAD3, Dublin Core, BagIt with PREMIS
  • AtoM, ArchivesSpace and CALM CSV
  • Nested multilevel hierarchy, not a flat list
All export formats
What stands behind it

Four things we state plainly.

EU-resident AI processing

Provenance on AI-assisted fields

Open formats only, no lock-in

Common questions

What archivists ask first.

Does this replace cataloguing judgement?

No. Archivers.ai produces a first draft. An archivist accepts, amends or rejects each field, and the record keeps a trail of who decided what.

Is the hierarchy real, or a flat list?

Real. Fonds, sub-fonds, series and sub-series, with collective-level description at each level and nested multilevel EAD3 on export.

Where do authority terms come from?

Your own controlled lists, plus lookups against VIAF, FAST and Wikidata. Terms are linked to a source, or promoted to a local authority you control; nothing is invented.

Can volunteers or junior staff review?

Yes. Retroconversion work supports a two-person model: a volunteer or junior reviewer checks each drafted record against the original page and confirms nothing on it was missed, then an archivist gives final sign-off. Volunteer and reviewer seats are free on every paid plan, and final acceptance can be restricted to archivist-level access.

What does it cost to try?

The Community plan is free: 30 credits a month, no card. One credit catalogues one page, photograph or object. Every price is published.
