How do I make a scanned deed searchable?
You drop the PDF in; the module lays an invisible text layer over every page, word by
word, without touching the image. You get back a PDF where Ctrl+F lands on the right
spot in the scan, and where the page is exactly the one you uploaded.
Is redaction reversible?
No, and that is the whole point. The text and the pixels concerned are removed from the
file, not covered with a black rectangle: nothing is left to select, to copy or to
find under the mask. A rectangle laid on top would only have hidden the screen.
How many pages can one case file hold?
Up to 500 pages in a single upload, read in one pass. Depending on how dense the pages
are, a full file takes three to twenty minutes; progress is shown throughout, and you
can close the tab and come back.
Does recognition work on old documents?
Two engines rather than one. Tesseract reads first; on the pages where it says itself
that it read badly, PaddleOCR takes over. On microfilm views from 1840, the second
finds twelve fields out of fourteen where the first finds one.
What can be extracted from a case file?
The schedule of exhibits — number, date, title —, the dates and amounts cited, and
full-text search across the whole thing. All of it exports as a searchable PDF, a
redacted PDF, CSV for a spreadsheet or JSON for the detail.
Is professional privilege preserved?
Case files are processed on our own machines, in Frankfurt, and deleted two hours after
your last action — or immediately, if you ask. No third-party artificial intelligence
service is called, and nothing you upload trains a model.
