Archively.AIArchives Made Intelligent
Standards

Designed for archivists, not just engineers.

Archively.AI's data model is a careful mapping of the frameworks your profession already uses. You keep control; the software does the grunt work.

PREMISMARC21Dublin CoreISAD(G)
ISAD(G)

General International Standard Archival Description

Our Item and Fonds modules are shaped around the seven ISAD(G) areas: identity, context, content, condition, allied materials, notes, and description control.

  • Reference code, title, dates, level of description, extent
  • Name of creator linked to authority records
  • Scope and content, arrangement, and appraisal notes
  • Access, reproduction, and language conditions
Dublin Core

DCMI metadata terms

Every published record can be expressed as Dublin Core for discovery, harvesting, and cross-repository search.

  • 15 core elements plus extended DCMI terms
  • Exposed via the live OAI-PMH harvesting endpoint
  • Exposed via API for third-party discovery tools
MARC21

MARC 21 bibliographic format

For institutions with library-integrated workflows, we support MARC-style export for catalog sync.

  • Leader, control fields, and common data fields
  • Round-trippable with LOC authority files
  • Subject heading mapping to LCSH (planned)
PREMIS

Preservation metadata

Every file and derivative carries PREMIS-style preservation metadata: events, agents, rights, and fixity.

  • Fixity (SHA-256) on every stored object
  • Event log for ingest, migration, and normalization
  • Rights and agents tracked for audit
ARK / DOI

Persistent identifiers

Mint an ARK or DOI on publish so a record stays citable for decades — even if your URL scheme, your department, or your domain changes.

  • Per-tenant configuration: ARK NAAN or DataCite DOI prefix
  • Identifier minted automatically on first publish
  • Resolver endpoint preserves every published version
  • Identifiers travel with EAD, MARC21, and Dublin Core exports
EAD 2002

Encoded Archival Description export

Export any Fonds as a valid EAD 2002 XML finding aid — ready for ArchivesSpace, Atom, and national aggregators.

  • Full hierarchy: fonds → sub-fonds → series → items
  • ISAD(G) fields mapped to standard EAD elements
  • Only published items included — drafts are never exported
  • One-click download from any Fonds detail page
OAI-PMH 2.0

Harvesting endpoint

A public OAI-PMH 2.0 endpoint exposes published records for DPLA, Europeana, national libraries, and regional aggregators — no authentication required.

  • All 6 verbs: Identify, ListMetadataFormats, ListSets, ListIdentifiers, ListRecords, GetRecord
  • Multi-tenant: each institution's endpoint at /oai?tenant=slug
  • Sets mapped to Fonds — harvest a single collection or the whole repository
  • Only published records exposed — drafts are never harvested
