Patrivox

Patrivox is the battle-tested European AI platform that liberates organizations from the dark ages of document management. While others offer generic search, Patrivox is purpose-built to conquer the specific, document-heavy chaos faced by heritage institutions, municipal archives, historical societies, and enterprises. Its core mission is audacious: to transform thousands of unsearchable, scanned PDFs into a living, breathing, and intelligently connected knowledge base in minutes, not months. Forget manual indexing and wasted hours. You simply drop your archives, and state-of-the-art Mistral AI goes to work, performing next-gen OCR, automatically extracting every person, place, and organization, and weaving them into an interactive knowledge graph. The result? Instant, typo-tolerant search and an AI chat that answers natural language questions with precise source citations. What truly sets Patrivox apart in a crowded market is its uncompromising European sovereignty: GDPR-native architecture, hosting on Scaleway in the EU, and a design philosophy that prioritizes data privacy and auditability from the ground up. It's not just a tool; it's a strategic advantage for any organization ready to move from dusty boxes to dynamic, accessible knowledge.

Battle-Ready Batch Import & AI Processing

Drop hundreds of PDFs at once and watch Patrivox's automated pipeline take over. There's no manual configuration or data entry. The platform uses cutting-edge Mistral AI to perform superior OCR, extracting every word with high accuracy, and then automatically enriches metadata by identifying and classifying entities. This hands-off automation turns weeks of manual labor into a process that completes in minutes, letting you scale your digitization efforts without scaling your workload.

Sovereign AI Search & Chat with Citations

Move beyond simple keyword matching. Patrivox delivers instant, full-text search across your entire collection with intelligent typo tolerance, ensuring queries find what you need. More powerfully, ask complex questions in plain language through the AI chat. The system doesn't just guess; it provides direct answers pulled from your documents and, critically, cites the exact source PDF and page number for complete verifiability and trust.

Interactive Knowledge Graph (Constellation)

This is where Patrivox outmaneuvers basic document viewers. It automatically maps every extracted entity-person, place, organization-into a dynamic, visual knowledge graph. Navigate from node to node to discover hidden connections between documents and figures that were previously invisible. See all documents associated with a specific person or location at a glance, transforming passive archives into an explorable web of historical intelligence.

GDPR-Native European Hosting & Access Control

Built for the European market from day one, Patrivox eliminates compliance anxiety. All data is hosted 100% on Scaleway servers within the European Union under a GDPR-native architecture. The platform provides robust access controls with unlimited reader seats, allowing you to safely share your archives with researchers or the public, while maintaining detailed audit logs. Your data's sovereignty is non-negotiable.

Municipal & City Archives Digitization

Municipalities drowning in centuries of deliberations, citizen registers, and official correspondence can finally breathe. Patrivox automates the digitization and indexing of these vast collections, making them instantly searchable for staff and open for public research. Showcase your city's history without dedicating an army of volunteers to manual indexing.

Historical Society Collection Management

Historical societies and associations can transform their bulletins, photo collections, and research documents from static PDFs into a dynamic research portal. Members and the public can explore connections between events and people through the knowledge graph, ask the AI specific questions, and discover new narratives, revitalizing engagement with your holdings.

Parish and Diocesan Heritage Preservation

Dioceses and parishes safeguarding fragile parish registers, ecclesiastical archives, and historical documents can preserve and index them effortlessly. Patrivox ensures these precious records are not only digitally preserved but also made accessible for genealogical research and historical study in a secure, controlled environment.

Corporate and Institutional Memory Management

Enterprises and large associations with decades of reports, meeting minutes, and technical documentation can stop the knowledge drain. Patrivox turns this institutional memory into a searchable corporate asset, allowing teams to find critical information and precedents in seconds, directly improving decision-making and operational efficiency.

How does Patrivox handle data privacy and GDPR compliance?

Patrivox is engineered for compliance. The entire platform is GDPR-native, meaning data privacy principles are built into its core architecture, not added as an afterthought. All data processing and storage occurs exclusively on Scaleway servers within the European Union. We act as a strict data processor for you, the controller, with clear agreements and comprehensive audit logs to support your compliance obligations.

What is the "AI chat" and how accurate are its answers?

The AI chat allows you to ask questions about your document collection in natural language, like "What was the budget for the town hall renovation in 1925?" The AI scans the intelligently indexed content and returns a concise answer. Crucially, every answer is accompanied by exact citations linking directly to the source PDF and page number, allowing you to verify the information instantly. Accuracy is tied to the quality of the source documents and OCR.

Can I collaborate with my team or share archives with the public?

Absolutely. A core feature of Patrivox is unlimited reader access on all plans. You can invite an entire research team, your organization's members, or even open a public portal for your community to explore archives. You maintain full control with administrator roles for management and contributor roles for uploading, while readers can freely search, explore the graph, and use the AI chat within set limits.

What happens when I exceed my plan's page or query limit?

The platform will notify you. You can then upgrade your plan to a higher tier with more included pages and AI queries. This scalable model ensures you only pay for the capacity you need. The processing of already-uploaded documents remains intact and searchable; limits apply to adding new pages or making new AI queries within a billing cycle.
