AI for museums
Make collection information readable, searchable, enrichable and verifiable with AI while keeping curatorial and professional control.
AI for museums, archives, libraries and heritage organisations
Get more value from your collection with AI
We process sources, improve collection data and make knowledge searchable and queryable, with quality, security, source traceability and human control built in.

AI systems for complex knowledge
Datamachine makes valuable information readable, searchable, enrichable and verifiable. We work with images, video, audio, documents, scans, transcripts, metadata, collection records, vocabularies and thesauri. AI does the preparatory work; your organisation retains control over data, context, quality and decisions.
Built around your information, not a single AI model
AI develops quickly. That is why we do not build our solutions around one model or provider. Different models and techniques can be selected per task and replaced when a better, safer or more efficient option becomes available. Your sources, metadata, terminology, relationships, rights and quality rules remain the foundation.
- Secure and under your control — it is clear where data is processed, who has access and what happens to it. Customer data is not used to train external models.
- Verifiable quality — we work with real data, clear quality criteria, test sets and human review.
- Source traceability — where relevant, you can see which source, passage, image or recording a result is based on.
- Fits existing systems — output is configured for your fields, workflows and information environment.
Three ways we help organisations
From processing source material to improving collection data and making knowledge searchable.
Datamachine AI Knowledge Platform
Bring images, text, audio, documents, metadata, thesauri and relationships together in one searchable knowledge layer. The Datamachine AI Knowledge Platform makes existing knowledge actively usable for search, enrichment, linking and question answering.
Information Extraction & Knowledge Access
Extract valuable information from collection material, documentation, audio and video, and make it usable for research, management and public access. Information extraction and knowledge access make hidden knowledge easier to find, better structured and more usable.
Visual Analysis & Collection Research
With visual analysis, you make image material in your collection easier to search and richer in content. By making visual characteristics, patterns and similarities visible, this application supports collection research, interpretation and new ways of providing access.
Document Processing & Archive Management
Make large volumes of documentation more accessible, easier to search and easier to manage. With smart document processing, you can order, analyse and enrich archive and collection material faster while preserving context and human control.
Collection Registration & Quality Control
Improve the quality, consistency and reliability of collection data. With smart support for registration and quality control, you can identify gaps, inconsistencies and duplicates more effectively and strengthen the basis for management, research and access.
Metadata, Terminology & Interoperability
Create more coherence, consistency and exchangeability in your collection data. A strong foundation in metadata, terminology and interoperability makes collections easier to search, better connected and better prepared for collaboration, reuse and digital access.

For organisations with valuable, complex information
Datamachine works with museums, archives, libraries, heritage organisations, image collections and other knowledge organisations. We adapt to your sources, systems, terminology and quality requirements.
AI for archives
Make documents, scans, handwriting, audio, video and metadata more searchable and usable with verifiable AI.
Start with one concrete question
The best AI projects do not start with a model, but with a clear task. Choose one source or dataset, define the output you need and agree how quality will be reviewed. From there, you can scale with confidence.
