AI+ Records & Information Management

Classify, Retrieve and Govern Information at Scale with AI

Classify, Retrieve, and Govern Information at Scale — Without Sacrificing Compliance

Your shared drives are full of unclassified documents. Your FOI queue is growing. Your retention schedule hasn't been reviewed since before GDPR. This book gives records and information professionals the RECORD Protocol — a six-step framework for integrating AI into every stage of the records lifecycle — plus over 30 prompt templates covering classification, FOI research, retention scheduling, and digital preservation. Built by an AI engineering firm for records professionals who know governance is their job — and want AI to make the hard work faster, not riskier.
