How it works

Supplejack works by gathering and transforming the metadata that describes digital records, without moving the records themselves.

Step 1: Harvest

You define which internal or external sources you gather records from, and what metadata you harvest.
Supplejack's flexibility means you can gather records from anywhere — an internal database or another organisation's website.
You can manage Supplejack's performance by scheduling harvests and controlling the number of records it gathers at once.

Step 2: Transform

Supplejack combines the records' metadata, and transforms it into a consistent structure. This means it can be indexed by a single search.

Step 3: Share

A new website makes all the harvested records searchable in one place.
Users can see item thumbnails and key information or detailed listing pages, and create and share collections of records.
Supplejack can be paired with AI technologies like natural language searches to make your records easier for users to find, use and share.

Easy for the public to use, through a single search, without having to go to many different databases to find our offerings.
