PaperlessZen™ for Box
Box is a solid place to store and share files, and like every storage tool, it is a frustrating place to find one specific agreement among thousands of scanned PDFs. Storage was never the same thing as findability, and a Box folder full of documents named by the scanner proves it every time someone goes looking.
PaperlessZen™ makes the contents of that folder findable.
What connects
Point PaperlessZen at a Box folder and it reads every page of the documents inside, so the full text is searchable, not just the file name. Each file is classified and can be linked to the constituent, contract, or record it belongs to. Box stays your collaboration space; PaperlessZen becomes the system of record for the documents that matter.
Where documents show up
In PaperlessZen, filed against the record they concern and searchable to the page, with any obligations tracked. A question like “which agreement mentions this term” becomes a search that lands on the exact document and page.
A three-step recipe
Three steps take a Box folder of scans to a governed archive, with intake doing the reading.
Point us at the folder
Tell PaperlessZen which Box folder holds your scanned agreements.
Every file is read
Intake reads and classifies each file and proposes where it belongs.
You confirm
A folder of unsearchable files becomes an archive with documents linked to their records.

PaperlessZen is in early beta. Importing from Box is available to early customers on request. Point us at your folder and watch it become searchable, or read the ecosystem thesis.
Frequently asked questions
Can PaperlessZen read documents already in Box?
Yes. Point us at the Box folder and PaperlessZen reads every page, so the full text becomes searchable and each file can be classified and linked to the record it concerns.
Does PaperlessZen replace Box?
Not for everyday collaboration. Keep Box for that. PaperlessZen becomes the system of record for the high-stakes documents, the ones that need to be found, tracked, and governed for years.
