PRESERVE & CURATE INSTITUTIONAL ARCHIVES

TRUST & COMMUNICATION

Our dedicated consultants and specifically trained, in-house team handle our corporate clientele. With extensive experience working with larger clients, we specialize in digitizing and organizing millions of analog and digital assets, photos, and videos. To ensure client confidentiality, we begin all corporate relationships with an NDA and follow strict protocols outlined by the Library of Congress Standards for Electronic Preservation of Visual Materials. We carefully inventory and record all contents of the project, requiring client sign-off at each phase. We respect your time, timeline, and budget and provide updates on progress via an agreed-upon contact process.

EFFICIENCY

Many organizations lack the time and resources to manage multiple vendors when dealing with various formats in their archival collections. Picturli offers a one-stop-shop solution for all of our client's needs. Our team has the expertise to organize, scan, transfer, and preserve any rare or fragile format, including vintage photos, VHS tapes, 8mm film reels, albums, audio reels, newspapers, and other important archival documents. Our unique ability to merge the digital preservation of old formats with the complex organization of the new archive provides our clients with tremendous convenience. With Picturli, institutional clients can rely on a streamlined and efficient process, allowing them to focus on their core business activities while we take care of their archival needs.

Our high-quality camera scanning system, specialized software for metadata and keyword tagging, and deep knowledge of cloud-based storage and backup systems ensure added security and accessibility.

TRANSPARENCY

At Picturli, we believe in transparency in all aspects of our work with clients. This includes our pricing structure, which is always provided upfront and in detail. We create a detailed statement of work (SOW) that breaks down the project into phases and associated investment pricing so that our clients know exactly what to expect in terms of costs and deliverables.

When it comes to the scanning and retouching of documents, we work with our clients to determine which materials will require more specialized treatment and which can be handled through basic scanning practices. We believe in being upfront about any additional costs that may arise due to necessary retouching or another special handling, and we always seek client approval before proceeding with any such work.

Our goal is to build long-term relationships with our clients, and we know that transparency and clear communication are key to achieving that. We are committed to working closely with each client to ensure that they are satisfied with every aspect of our services and that they feel fully informed throughout the entire process.

CUSTOMIZATION

At Picturli, we understand that each client has unique needs when it comes to their archival collections. That's why we offer customized services tailored to meet the specific requirements of each project. Our team works closely with clients to understand their organizational structure and create a searchable archive organized according to their preferences, whether it's chronologically, by category, or in any other format. We collaborate with clients to transcribe metadata, apply tags, and re-name and re-date files in a manner that suits their requirements, ensuring that the end result is a sortable, searchable, and shareable collection accessible from any program or platform of their choice. Additionally, our flexible and expandable structure allows for the ongoing acquisition of archival content for years to come. At Picturli, we prioritize meeting our client's unique needs while providing them with a top-notch archival solution.
