Souvera Documents
Document management. Rooted deep in your workspace.
Souvera Documents will be the document management system inside your Souvera workspace: capture, classify, enrich with metadata, read out via OCR and AI, and find again in seconds – without folder chaos. Currently in development.
- One document, many views – no folder paths
- OCR & AI classification with local models
- Full-text search across all documents
- Complete audit trail
The concept
An end to folder chaos
In a classic file manager, a document lives in exactly one place. Souvera Documents turns that around: the file simply remains a file – and appears under invoices, supplier, period, status and project at the same time.
Originals stay originals
Documents are not copied into a second database. The file remains a normal workspace file – Souvera Documents adds the business layer on top.
Permissions from the workspace
The existing workspace permission system decides who may see a document. The DMS inherits these rights – nothing is managed twice.
Classification instead of paths
Storage location is not business information. Document type, metadata, tags and status replace thinking in folders.
Sync keeps working
Desktop sync, WebDAV and mobile clients continue to work unchanged – the DMS layer builds on top instead of replacing them.
Features
Everything a modern DMS needs
From document intake to full-text search: Souvera Documents covers the complete lifecycle of your documents.
Document intake
New documents arrive in the inbox: via upload, from the workspace or through a configurable intake folder – with status overview and processing state.
Document types & metadata
Invoice, contract, delivery note: document types and their fields are freely definable – every document gets exactly the metadata it needs.
OCR & text extraction
Scanned documents and PDFs are read out automatically – even without a text layer. The original remains untouched.
AI classification
A local AI suggests document type and metadata – including a confidence score. You review and confirm, the rest happens automatically.
Full-text search
Finding instead of searching: OCR text, metadata, tags and titles in one search – with filters by type, status and period.
Reminders
Add due dates to documents: overdue, today, this week – nothing gets forgotten anymore.
Document relations
Invoice to purchase order, addendum to contract: documents can be linked and remain traceable in relation.
Audit trail
Every action is logged: who changed, classified or archived what and when – complete and tamper-evident.
Duplicate detection
Identical documents are detected on import via checksum. You decide whether it is a duplicate or a new document.
Roadmap
In development – step by step
Souvera Documents is built modularly. The foundation comes first, followed by AI and search.
Document core
Upload, document list, detail view, permission checks and audit basics.
Types & metadata
Freely definable document types and fields, tags and filters.
Processing & OCR
Automatic text extraction and OCR in the background – with retries and status display.
AI classification
Local language models suggest type and fields – with confidence scores.
Full-text search
Find everything: OCR text and metadata in one search.
