Your entire archive, on any browser

🌐 Sign in from any browser and search everything — nothing to install, ever.
☑︎ Works on a workstation, a tablet, a Chromebook, or a phone.
☑︎ Argon’s built-in viewer opens every document — zoom, rotate, print — on every device.
🔗 Share a link to a document or a search; security rights are enforced the moment it opens.
☑︎ Save your best searches — one click re-runs them, from any computer you sign in to.

Full power, right on the desktop

☑︎ Every scanner in the building talks straight to Argon — TWAIN and Windows scanning drive directly into a batch, the one thing a browser intentionally can’t do.
☑︎ Color-coded tabs keep a dozen searches, results, and open documents organized side by side, and any one pops out to its own window — even a second monitor.
☑︎ Drop files on the screen, or point a folder at Argon, and they become a batch automatically — no scanner software required.
🔗 One click from your other business systems opens the exact document or search instantly.
☑︎ It remembers exactly where you left it — window size, position, and layout, every time you sign back in.

Capture and index at full speed

⚡ Scan straight in — blank pages drop automatically, pages stack up ready to index.
💡 Keyboard-first indexing with sticky values and table lookups that fill whole rows from one number.
☑︎ One-click document types file multi-page documents and advance you automatically.
☑︎ Drag files — or whole folders — onto the screen and they become batches.
☑︎ Point any scanner’s software at a watched folder; whatever arrives files itself.
☑︎ Indexing and committing also run in the browser — a batch started at the scan station can be finished from anywhere.

Mark it up. Redact it. Right on the page

☑︎ Highlight, redact, arrows, freehand, text, and sticky notes — in the viewer or while indexing.
☑︎ The same annotation editor runs in the browser — Windows, Mac, or iPad.
✅ Decades of existing annotations carry forward, and redactions never blink.
🔒 The original file is never touched — markup lives in protected layers above it.

Security your auditors will love

🔒 Every connection encrypted, every time; passwords guarded like online banking.
☑︎ Every open, print, and send is logged — who, when, where, and why.
☑︎ Granular permissions: each person gets exactly the keys they need — enforced by the server on every request.
🛡️ Records management with legal holds, multi-approver destruction, and a signed disposition certificate.
🏆 Independently scanned by OpenText Fortify… The industry-standard application security testing platform trusted by banks and governments. Argon PASSED with Five Stars and Zero security issues.

Always on. Updated over coffee… if you drink it fast!

🚀 The server is updated from the browser Admin console by users who have been granted rights to do so. Upload an update file safely encrypted by Imaging101, click Apply… and within seconds it’s done. The installation rolls back automatically if anything goes wrong. And, if needed, it can also be rolled back to a previous build manually.
✅ Services monitor themselves and restart themselves; servers and engines run side by side.
✅ A renewed HTTPS certificate re-applies itself automatically within about a minute — no maintenance window, no manual renewal dance, ever.
✅ Initial desktop client installs may be pushed or downloaded from one link — from your approved local installation.
✅ Users are notified when a new version is installed. With a single click the desktop client updates itself — within seconds — also only from your approved local installation.

Administration in minutes, from a browser

☑︎ All administration is done from a browser — No SQL, no software to install, and no logging into the server(s). And each admin is given rights — the keys — only to what they are responsible for.
☑︎ Manage Users, permissions, applications, fields, search templates, cleanup, records disposition, audit-log review, system statistics, rights reports, a report generator, and more…with no SQL and no server access required.
📈 A live health dashboard with performance graphs and a watchdog that emails assigned admins preemptively.

Speaks your language. Matches your style.

🎨 Eight personal color palettes — from the classic Argon blue to Evergreen, Plum, Sunrise, Pumpkin, Coffee, and Beach — each person picks their own.
☑︎ Seven languages, side by side — English, Spanish, Portuguese, Hebrew, Swedish, French, and German.
☑︎ Every module speaks it: the web app, the admin console, and the desktop client all share the same language and color choice the moment you sign in.

The investment you’ve already made — multiplied

✅ Your data, applications, fields, searches, and daily workflows carry forward unchanged.
🛡️ Migration from existing installations is managed, reconciled record by record, and 100% guaranteed — by Imaging101’s professional staff — nothing lost, nothing left behind.
☑︎ Your people keep everything they know. It simply got Faster, Safer, and Available everywhere.

Why “Argon”?

When the United States set out to preserve its most treasured documents — the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, etc. — the National Archives sealed them in cases filled with Argon… an inert noble gas that shields whatever it surrounds. It never reacts. It never degrades. It never lets time in.

That is the standard we hold this suite to. Your records — surrounded and protected — instant to reach, impossible to harm, preserved for exactly as long as you choose to keep them.

The Argon logo represents its symbol “Ar” and its atomic number 18. And the name can be pronounced very similarly in almost every language.
