Chirograph — document processing that proves its work.
Chirograph — an intelligent document processing platform by Locus Consulting.
One governed pipeline. Two front doors — for people and for agents.
Not yet available Chirograph is a working title, pending trademark counsel. The evidence panel below shows Indenture #0000, real evidence from the Chirograph product repository, not a live system.
Extracted. Validated. Recorded. Proven.

Recorded evidence Indenture #0000 — bootstrap — real Software Bill of Materials (SBOM), license, and extraction-pipeline evidence from the Chirograph product repository, not a simulation.
Indenture #0000 — bootstrap
Cut manually at repository bootstrap, deliberately before a dependency tree existed, so the first indenture Chirograph ever produced already carried a license verdict. Every build since has cut its own indenture automatically as part of the pipeline.
Recorded — the extraction pipeline processed 3 sample documents (an invoice, a purchase order, and a receipt) and correctly extracted all 12 tracked fields.
Recorded — every extracted field was checked against a verified answer key; all 12 checks passed. A second extraction backend is defined but not yet connected, so only one pipeline configuration has validated results so far.

About the name
A chirograph was a legal instrument written in duplicate on a single sheet, then cut apart along an indented line. One part — a counterpart — went to each party, and the document proved authentic when the two halves matched, answering to one another along the cut: the historical root of verification-by-correspondence, the same principle behind engraved check stubs and stock-certificate borders. Chirograph the product applies that same principle to document processing: every extraction is verifiable, every decision is on the record, and its two front doors are counterparts of one governed instrument (per the Chirograph product repository's naming documentation, docs/naming.md).
The mark echoes the same idea at the level of construction, not just meaning: two identical squares, overlaid 45 degrees apart into an eight-pointed rosette, are literally built by laying one shape over its own duplicate (per this kit's own mark rationale, wwwroot/brand/chirograph/README.md).
Glossary
- Counterpart
- One of a chirograph's two matching halves; in the product, one of Chirograph's two front doors — the human web application or the agent Model Context Protocol (MCP) endpoint.
- Indenture
- In the chirograph metaphor, the indented cut line itself; in the product, the evidence bundle assembled and signed at a promotion gate — see the demo panel above.
