Every file the matter throws at you — in, converted, and searchable.
Drag in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDFs, images, emails and archives. BriefTech renders each to PDF, OCRs the scans, and adds them to a full-text index automatically — before you touch a thing.
From raw file to searchable document
- 01
Drop the files
20+ formats today, and we convert almost anything else you send. Anything that can't be converted lands in an Exceptions view, so nothing is silently lost.
- 02
Convert & OCR
Each file is rendered to PDF and scanned pages are OCR'd, so even photographed exhibits and faxed pages become real, searchable text.
- 03
Index automatically
Every document joins a full-text search index the moment it lands — searchable across the whole matter, with no separate processing step.
Formats and sources, out of the box
- Office files
Word, Excel / CSV and PowerPoint converted to PDF on upload.
- PDFs & images
Rendered and OCR'd, including scanned and photographed exhibits.
- Email
.msg and .eml messages with attachments extracted as separate documents.
- Archives
ZIP, PST, OST and mbox unpacked into the files they contain.
- CAD & vector
.dwg, .dxf and SVG rendered to a reviewable PDF.
- Protected & oversized
Large PDFs split or edited in-browser; a password-protected file is flagged in Exceptions for you to unlock outside the app and re-upload.
Uploading, conversion, OCR, indexing and on-screen previews are all free. A document is charged once, the first time it enters a paid bundle or export, at 1 credit per 50 pages, minimum 1 per document. Every regeneration after that is free.

Confidential, checkable, and less work
- Confidential
Encrypted with AES-256 at rest and TLS in transit, stored in Singapore by default, and reachable by BriefTech staff only at your written request.
How we protect your data → - Checkable
The AI proposes each document's class, key dates and description. You confirm or correct every one before it reaches a bundle, and relevance, privilege and strategy stay with the lawyers.
How the AI works → - Less effort
Drop the files in as they are. Conversion, OCR and the first AI pass run on upload, so Review opens with the work already started.
Ingestion is the quiet stage that decides how good the rest of the matter feels.
BriefTech treats it as production infrastructure: whatever a client, an opponent or a court sends becomes a clean, OCR’d, searchable PDF in the same index as everything else — so review, indexing and bundling all start from one consistent set.
Put Ingest & OCR to work
Almost any file type in — auto-converted, OCR'd, indexed.
