User Guide

The Browse page displays all published documents as a grid of thumbnail cards. Each card shows the document ID, date, title, type, and classification level.

Click Filters to open the filter panel. You can narrow results by document type, operation scope, classification level, and date range. The date pickers open a calendar bounded to the archive period — no value means no filter is applied.

A green Downloaded badge appears on any document you have already downloaded, so you never pay twice for the same file. Results are paginated in sets of 24; use the Previous / Next controls to navigate.

Advanced Search queries the full OCR-transcribed text of every document in the archive, combined with structured metadata filters.

Full-text search finds documents that contain your term anywhere in the transcribed page text, title, or description.

Entity filters let you search by Person, Organisation, or Location — useful for tracing individuals or operations across multiple documents.

Active filter chips appear below the search form whenever a filter is set. Click the × on any chip to remove that filter and immediately re-run the search.

Once you have results you want to return to, click Save to name and store the search in your workspace. The current URL also encodes all active filters — you can copy and share it with a colleague and they will see the same results.

Every document detail page has an AI Assistant tab. Ask any question about the document and the assistant will answer using the document's transcribed text, always providing the passage it drew from so you can verify the source.

Query quotas are enforced per account:

Your remaining quota is shown on the document page. Quotas reset on the first of each month.

Free tier — you can view a watermarked PDF preview of every document. The watermark contains your name and the download date for attribution purposes.

Pro and Institutional tiers — you can download the full, unmarked PDF. Downloads are debited in page credits: a 12-page document costs 12 credits.

Re-downloads are free. Once you have downloaded a document, you can download it again at any time without spending credits. The green Downloaded badge on browse and search cards marks documents you own.

Page credit packs — if you exhaust your monthly subscription credits you can purchase additional packs of 100 pages for $10. Packs never expire and are consumed before your subscription credits each month.

Folders let you organise documents into named collections for ongoing research projects — similar to a physical document binder.

Create a folder from the Folders page in My Workspace. Add documents using the folder icon on any browse card, search result card, or document detail page. You can add up to 10 documents at a time using the multi-select checkboxes on Browse or Search.

After running a search, click the Save button in the search form to give the search a name and store it in your workspace. Saved searches remember all active filters — full-text query, entities, date range, classification, type, and scope.

Access your saved searches from My Workspace → Saved Searches. Click any saved search to re-run it instantly with the current archive data.

APIA offers three tiers. You can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel at any time from Account & Billing in My Workspace.

Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period — you keep access to your tier until then. Page credit packs are non-refundable and never expire.
