FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What does "archivist-first" mean?

Our workflows match archival practice. Archivists lead the process, and the platform supports it. We structure the work so decisions are reviewed and traceable, with quality built in from the start. From the ground up, we built new technologies to help archivists capture richer, more thorough description in less time.

Can you work with partially processed collections?

Yes. We can build on existing work, complete partial processing, or start fresh. We'll assess your current state and develop a plan that makes sense for your institution.

Is the platform available without services?
