heritage

We always start with a discovery phase.

This involves understanding your collections, workflows, existing systems, and long-term organizational goals. Through collaborative conversations and a technical + curatorial review, we identify the opportunities, risks, and constraints that will shape a realistic, mission-aligned project plan.

Our goal is to ensure the work we do fits your institution’s culture, capacity, and future direction.

Yes — we design solutions that meet you where you are.

Whether you use Rednal, AtoM, ArchivesSpace, CONTENTdm, Omeka, Islandora, a homegrown system, or spreadsheets, we focus on strengthening what already works while bridging the gaps.

When new tools are needed, we help evaluate options and design interoperable workflows that reduce long-term technical burden and maintain institutional control..

All of them, and administrators and end users, too!

Our work sits at the intersection of technology, stewardship, and scholarship. We regularly collaborate with archivists, librarians, digital preservation staff, IT teams, curators, and researchers to ensure every solution supports real-world practices.

We prioritize transparent communication and shared decision-making across departments so the final system feels natural and sustainable for your whole organization.

That’s completely normal — and we can help.

Heritage data is often messy: legacy schemas, inconsistent metadata, format drift, partial records, and undocumented workflows are common.

We specialize in designing remediation strategies, mapping plans, quality checks, and sustainable processes that improve structure without erasing historical context.

The goal is not perfection — it’s clarity, authenticity, and long-term usability.

Yes.

We work with institutions to create OAIS-aligned preservation roadmaps that account for storage, fixity, metadata, governance, and institutional capacity. Whether you’re building a new digital initiative or strengthening an existing one, we help ensure your assets remain authentic, accessible, and stewarded for generations.

Absolutely.

We design AI-powered tools that enhance — not replace — professional judgment. Our focus is on transparency, human oversight, and interoperability with your current systems.

From transcription to metadata generation to research discovery, we ensure each AI integration respects cultural sensitivity, privacy, and institutional values.
