How It Works

Automatic project documentation: every decision filed before you finish the email.

You documented the whole project the first time you sent the email. Archen just makes it usable.

The problem

You already wrote everything down. It is just unusable.

Most of what matters is sitting in your sent folder right now: the decisions, the approvals, the changes. The information exists. It is simply scattered across thousands of messages and impossible to pull out when you need it.

You do not have a documentation problem. You have a retrieval problem.

What it lifts out

Decisions, approvals, and scope, pulled out automatically.

Archen does not just store your email. It reads it and lifts out the parts that matter: what was decided, what was approved, what changed. The record is structured, not a pile of forwarded threads.

One email from Julia R. expands into three extracted records in Project Memory: an approval for Arabescato Marble, a scope change adding an outlet to the kitchen island, and a lighting lead-time commitment

Your day

What changes about your day. Nothing.

You send the same emails to the same people. You attach the same files. The documentation happens on the other side of that, with no new habit, no new tool to open, no logging.
