Encrypted & searchable · retention built in

Keep every record secure, and actually find it again

Cendro Cloud is a managed, encrypted document repository. Store, organise and search your records — with retention, audit and governance built in, and no on-prem infrastructure to run.

How it works

Upload, enrich, find

1

Upload

Add documents individually or in bulk, or scan straight in. Organise them into folders that mirror your taxonomy, with full version history.

2

Secure & enrich

Every file is encrypted client-side before it leaves you. Built-in AI reads the content — even handwriting — and extracts searchable metadata.

3

Find & produce

Search by filename, metadata or full text, then retrieve, share by email, or bulk-export any record on request.

Built-in AI classifies each document and extracts searchable metadata — dates, amounts, reference numbers — with a quality rating.

What makes it different

Secure by default, findable by design

Zero-knowledge encryption

Files are encrypted client-side with AES-256 and a per-client RSA-4096 key pair. The key never leaves your premises, so we cannot read your files.

Immutable and retention-ready

Records are stored under S3 Object Lock (WORM) with retention rules — for example by a person's date of birth — and a full audit trail.

Search that finds anything

Filename, type, date and folder search as standard, plus Intelligent Search & Sort — included in every plan — for full-text and AI metadata search across document content.

Built for scale

Bulk upload and storage that scales on demand, comfortably handling millions of documents.

Share without the hassle

Email selected files to nominated recipients, or issue time-limited, revocable bulk-download tokens for migrations and offboarding.

No infrastructure to run

A managed service built on AWS S3, with its 11-nines (99.999999999%) durability and 99.9% availability SLA — no servers, and no legacy document-management vendor.

Retention built in

Rules that follow the document, not the folder

Set how long records must be kept by category or document type, counting from a metadata date the AI extracted — such as a document date or a person's date of birth — with conditional overrides for special cases. More specific rules take precedence, and every retention decision is recorded in the audit trail.

Included in every plan

Intelligent Search & Sort

Turn a document store into a knowledge base. Cendro Cloud's AI layer reads your documents with OCR — even handwriting on scanned forms — classifies them, can rename them from the metadata it extracts, and makes their content searchable, so the right record is always one search away. Every plan includes a monthly page-processing inclusion, with on-demand page packs when you need more.

Cendro Cloud — Search with Semantic and Metadata modes, filtering by category, document type and metadata fields
Semantic or metadata search — filter by category, document type and any extracted field.
Cendro Cloud — Upload files with AI Sort options: auto-detect category and type, vision OCR for scans and handwriting, auto-rename and auto-file when a rule matches
AI Sort at upload — classify, OCR scans and handwriting, then auto-rename and auto-file by rule.

Sorted as it arrives

Every upload — one file or thousands — runs through AI Sort: category and document type are detected automatically, scans and handwriting are read with vision OCR, and files are renamed and filed into the right folder when a naming or filing rule matches. Anything without a match is held for a quick manual review.

OCR that reads scanned documents — including handwriting on forms

Automatic classification into a document-type taxonomy

Structured metadata extraction — dates, amounts, names, reference numbers

Intelligent renaming that names files from their extracted metadata fields

Full-text search within content, with highlighted matches

Metadata filters, e.g. invoices over $10,000 or contracts expiring in 90 days

AI quality scoring to flag documents needing manual review

Questions, answered

Before you ask

Can you read our files?

No. Files are encrypted with AES-256 on your side before they leave your premises, and the key never leaves you. We store encrypted data, so we cannot read your files.

Can it handle scanned or handwritten documents?

Yes. Intelligent Search & Sort — included in every plan — reads documents with OCR, including handwriting, and extracts structured metadata, so scanned records become fully searchable.

How does retention work?

You set retention rules (for example, based on a person's date of birth), with immutable storage and a full audit trail, so records are kept for exactly as long as they need to be.

Can it handle large volumes?

Yes. Bulk upload and storage scale on demand, comfortably handling millions of documents.

How is Cloud priced?

A flat monthly rate by capacity, from A$225/month for 500GB. Every plan includes Intelligent Search & Sort and a monthly page-processing inclusion, with one-off on-demand page packs when you need more. See the pricing page for all six tiers, with larger capacity available on request.
