AI Library Software

Read Every License You've Ever Signed

Aline turns every PDF, scan, and crooked old license — even the faded 1880s scans — into searchable, comparable, reportable data your library team can actually use.

License management is broken

License terms buried in PDFs.

Frontline staff can't answer "Can I ILL this?" or "Can we put it on course reserve?" without digging through 60-page agreements.

Renewal cliffs no one tracks.

Critical dates spread across ERMs, shared drives, and someone's inbox. Auto-renewals trigger before anyone reviews terms

No way to query the portfolio.

"Which licenses permit text/data mining?" is a 3-day project instead of a 10-second query.

"There are 8,400 contracts in the Aline platform. Answering questions about our data or risk used to take hours, days, even weeks. Now I can just ask."

FAQs

Find answers to your most pressing questions about Aline's AI for Libraries.
Does it work on scanned PDFs?
Yes — including faded, crooked, and pre-digital paper scans. AI OCR was built for legal documents going back decades.
Will it integrate with Alma / FOLIO / OCLC?
CSV export now; direct sync to Alma and FOLIO ERM modules is on the 2026 roadmap. We don't replace your ERM — we structure the license PDFs your ERM can't read.
Is our data confidential?
SOC 2 Type II. No training on customer data. Configurable retention. Single-tenant deployment available for consortia.
How fast can we get started?
Live in a week. Bring your license stack to a 30-min onboarding; we ingest, you query.
Can it handle consortium-scale portfolios?
Yes. 10,000+ documents analyzed at once. Per-member roles + shared-license views built in.
