Archive IntelligenceDecades of reporting, searchable by meaning.

Archive Intelligence turns a publisher’s archive into a governed vector database, so stories can be found by meaning rather than keywords, in any language. It is the first step of any newsroom AI journey: grounded answers, related-story context, recommendations and a licensable asset.

The problem

Why Archive Intelligence exists

Archives hold a publication’s most valuable reporting, locked behind keyword search, legacy fonts and scanned pages. AI tools can’t use what they can’t find.
