Vendor-Proof Model
What happens when your compliance archive vendor disappears? With EvidenceAPI, nothing changes. You still produce records.
Customer-Owned WORM Vault
Your records are written into object storage you control, with retention enforced below the application layer.
Show technical detail
Records live in an S3 bucket you provision in your AWS account. Object Lock (Compliance mode) ensures even root can't delete or shorten retention. We have no admin access.
Versioning: Enabled
DefaultRetention: 7 years
Self-Describing Records
Each record ships with its own manifest so you can verify and rebuild views without vendor indexes.
Show technical detail
Every record has a JSON manifest sidecar stored with it in your vault — not in our SaaS. The manifest contains hashes, metadata, relationships, retention flags, and version links. No "dark data."
manifest: s3://your-vault/manifests/2025/06/abc123.json

Offline Production Kit
You can scan, verify, and export without calling our API—proving independent access during an outage.
Show technical detail
The Production Kit is escrowed into your tools bucket with each release. It scans manifests, verifies hashes, and exports records in open formats — with zero calls to our API or license server.
→ 847,293 records verified
→ export to PDF/A, PST, CSV
No Vendor-Hosted Index
Other systems keep the index in SaaS. We keep it with the data so exports still work when vendors disappear.
Show technical detail
Other "BYOD" solutions keep the index in their SaaS. Vendor outage = can't locate records. We store the index (manifest) with the data. You can always rebuild a searchable view locally.
