French archive management consultant specializing in OCR-enabled digitization with GDPR compliance expertise and physical-digital integration services.

novarchive

Overview

Founded in 1983, novarchive operates as an archive management consultant rather than a pure technology vendor, combining four decades of records management expertise with modern OCR capabilities. The French company differentiates from technology-focused competitors by offering integrated physical and digital archiving services with regulatory compliance consulting.

In early 2026, novarchive positioned itself strategically against established OCR leaders, acknowledging ABBYY FineReader and Klippa as "reference tools for demanding enterprises" while focusing on service delivery and compliance expertise. The company's approach centers on a three-choice document lifecycle strategy: preserve, digitize, or destroy, with automated indexing that reduces document search time from 30-60 minutes to 5-10 seconds.
