Architectural Rigor
We aren’t just building a tool; we’re building a stable environment for qualitative inquiry. These are the architectural choices guiding the build as we move through early access.
Hexagonal Architecture
Domain logic is separated via ports and adapters, with system interfaces defined before implementation begins.
Multi-tenancy
Designed for clear workspace boundaries, with isolation controls forming part of the architecture.
Object Storage
Built around direct object-storage access patterns using time-bound, authorized links.
Infrastructure as Code
Platform infrastructure is defined as code to support repeatable, consistent environments.
Defense-in-depth
Designed with layered protections (for example: encrypted transport/storage where applicable) and disciplined access controls.
Human-in-the-loop
AI can assist with suggestions, but researchers retain authority over interpretation and analysis.
NLP Building Blocks
Structured language-processing components are being designed to support larger reviews while preserving context.
Rigor Goal
Preserve a clear, traceable path from early analysis to final research conclusions.
