If you’re new to Chroniqle, here’s the simplest way to think about it: Chroniqle is History Factory’s private AI platform that enables organizations to tap into their own archival materials and research with confidence.
Instead of searching the public internet, it uses only your authenticated historical documents and relevant research—so every answer you get is grounded in facts your organization already owns and trusts. Chroniqle behaves less like a typical chatbot and more like an expert who has read everything in your archives and can instantly find what matters.
How do we do it? Hybrid intelligence. What makes Chroniqle unique is not just its general AI ingestion process, although we think that’s pretty special too—it’s also that trained archivists and research strategists review and verify every piece of information before the platform ingests it.
Ingestion is the process that prepares your history for the system to use, long before the AI generates any answers. This step ensures that Chroniqle understands your materials and cites them accurately, meaning your teams can use the insights it produces with confidence.
Let’s walk through what actually happens.
The Game Changer
History Factory archivists and research strategists step in long before any materials get anywhere near Chroniqle—a crucial differentiator. Unlike generic AI platforms that ingest whatever files you upload without checking anything, Chroniqle begins with human expertise.
Our teams review your materials to identify what is authoritative. This avoids the problems that arise when file systems contain multiple drafts, conflicting data, or outdated notes. It also helps ensure that the depth and breadth of company knowledge are represented, reflecting decades of documentation and valuable types of materials (i.e., annual reports, internal memos, and product documents). This review ensures that the system receives only high-quality content that reflects a robust institutional memory.
This level of curation is not optional. It is what makes Chroniqle a first-of-its-kind solution rather than a generic AI assistant.
Preparing Documents for AI Ingestion
Once the right materials are selected, the files must be made AI-ready. Many enterprise documents are a mix of text, tables, charts, and images. Public AI tools often struggle with these structures. They may strip out formatting, misread numerical tables, or ignore images entirely, often introducing inaccuracies (learn more about why AI visual intelligence matters in an enterprise platform).
Chroniqle uses a hybrid workflow that combines the most advanced optical character recognition with the human knowledge required to preserve the structure of each document (including complex tabular data, images, and graphs) so that the system understands how pieces of information relate to one another.
Validating Accuracy and Authenticity
This part is easier said than done: Trained experts check every converted asset to ensure that crucial information has not been lost or distorted.
Our experts review converted materials to ensure that numbers, descriptions, and visual elements match those in the originals. Think of it as quality control that protects the integrity of your history (a misplaced comma or period can make a big difference in interpreting financial information, for example).
This step exists to ensure that the fully cited answers Chroniqle provides can stand up to executive scrutiny. That level of trust cannot exist without a system that is grounded in verified materials.
Accuracy is not a feature—it is the foundation.
This added layer is what helps Chroniqle find the needle in the haystack, even when your archives span decades.
Why This Matters
Chroniqle’s AI ingestion process may seem complex, but its purpose is incredibly practical. It ensures that the answers you receive are:
- Authentic to your company’s history
- Fully cited
- Enterprise ready
- Brand safe
