Alpha Zero, a dynamic consulting and software company has upgraded Pathway, its flagship information management product to provide a sub-two second search facility. Pathway is designed to help legal firms reduce their archiving and document retrieval costs by providing an optical character recognition (OCR) search tool.
Legal firms have a requirement to store their case files for a minimum of eight years. This usually requires the firm to either dedicate valuable office space or invest in off-site, secure storage facilities. Firms incur considerable expense in terms of search time and the use of document retrieval courier services, the cost of storage boxes and increased insurance premiums. The risks of damage to these files through fire or flood damage are considerable, not least given the paper nature of stored files.
Alpha Zero's Pathway archiving and document retrieval proposition provides a cost effective solution designed to be secure and fast to retrieve. The scanning facility enables firms to scan files and store them as pdf documents. The easy to use, intuitive Pathway Search tool provides a fast OCR tool which will search even handwritten documents according to the user's search criteria.
As Steve Pearsall, Managing Director of Alpha Zero explains, 'Our clients bear considerable cost in storing and retrieving their archived documents. Working with our existing clients, we have helped them not only reduce their costs and risks but also set new document management standards across the firm which ensures their investment in Pathway continues to free up vital billable hours.'
Pathway is designed as a non-intrusive modular system which overlays existing IT infrastructures. It is easily deployed on a scalable basis according the individual firm's requirements and IT architecture.
