Fifteen years of scans. One search box.

SALVERN indexes a law firm's archive: scans, PDFs, folders dumped in bulk. It makes any document findable in seconds, with access rights preserved per matter and per department. It runs entirely on your hardware, inside your network.

Book a 20-minute call

No obligation. Nothing is installed and no files are opened. An NDA is signed before we see a single document.

01

Every firm has one: a network drive nobody has looked through in years. Matters from 2011 in folders named after a partner who left long ago. Scans where forty documents went through the feeder in a single pass and landed in one file. The precedent you are looking for exists. Finding it takes an afternoon. Or it never happens, and the work is done a second time.

02

What actually breaks an archive

Forty documents in one file.

One folder pushed through the feeder in a single pass. There are thousands of files like it in the archive.

A scan nobody wants to read.

Crooked pages, blank reverses, faxes, stamps over the text, notes written in the margin.

The same document in five places.

Five folders, five scans, one document. Nobody knows which one is current.

The file date is the scan date.

Not the date on the document. Sort an imported archive by date and you get noise.

Working view. Sample data.

Reads everything.

Paper scans, digital files, mail archives, cloud folders. Text recognition runs locally, including on poor scans, crooked pages and documents with stamps over the text.

Splits the piles.

Multi-document PDFs are separated into single documents, dated and classified. The same document scanned into several folders is recognised as one. The date is taken from the content of the document, not from the file.

Finds by meaning, not only by word.

You search for what you need, not for the phrase somebody typed in 2014. The original is always one click away.

Keeps permissions.

SALVERN reads Active Directory and reproduces your department structure. A user without access does not see results marked “no permission”. They see a system in which those documents do not exist.

SALVERN does not replace your documents or your practice management system. It makes the archive behind them searchable.

04

What it is not

This is not a cloud service.

Nothing is sent anywhere.

This is not a chat.

SALVERN finds documents and shows you the source. It does not draft your submissions.

It does not learn from your files.

There is no model being trained, and no mechanism that would allow it.

It does not replace your practice management system.

It sits beside it and opens up what you cannot reach from inside it.

05

How the first visit works

01

A call, then a slice of your archive.

You pick it: one department, one year, closed matters. Two or three hundred documents is enough to show you the state of the whole thing.

02

One afternoon, in your office.

I come in with a laptop and we index the slice on it, offline, in the room with you. Nothing is installed on your systems and nothing leaves the building.

03

You search it the same day.

Before I leave you are searching your own documents. If it does not do what I said it would, that is the end of it and the afternoon is all it cost you.

Professional secrecy

Processing happens at your office.

On the laptop I bring with me for the first visit, and afterwards on a server you own.

No outbound connection.

While it is working, SALVERN makes no network request outside your network. Your own IT can watch the traffic and confirm it.

Nothing is used for training.

There is no model being trained.

An NDA and a data processing agreement before anything begins.

At the end the index stays with you, and we take nothing.

Or, if you prefer, written confirmation of deletion.

07

First deployments: late 2026 / Q1 2027.

We are taking a limited number of firms into the first deployments. The limit is not a sales device: in the first year I run every deployment myself. Early clients have direct influence over what gets built.

After the first visit, SALVERN runs on a server you own. You buy it from your usual supplier, with their warranty and their on-site service, so the hardware your archive sits on is never something you have to get from me. I tell you what it needs and I install on it.

Price depends on the number of users and the size of the archive. A figure printed here would be a guess about your archive, so we work it out on the call instead.

Who is behind this

Tomasz Kozakiewicz

Tomasz Kozakiewicz

I write the software and I run the deployments. SALVERN is not resold through anyone, so the person who turns up at your office is me. I build document and data systems for a living, and I currently work on public-sector IT in Warsaw, where the rules about what may leave a building are not negotiable. The address below is mine, not a support desk.

See what is in your archive.

Twenty minutes with the person who builds it. You pick a slice of the archive you are comfortable with, and the NDA comes first.
