What we do

Collection Digitization

High-fidelity scanning and OCR of print collections. Books, journals, archives — converted into clean, structured text.

Corpus Preparation

Deduplication, normalization, metadata. Delivered in the format your pipeline expects, at whatever scale you need.

Institutional Agreements

We negotiate and manage partnerships with universities and libraries. Clear provenance, documented rights, one point of contact.

Why Hcyon

Access, not scraping

Our text comes from agreements with the institutions that hold it. Documented origin, on every page.

Quality at the source

Native-language teams across Europe. Collections in dozens of languages, captured correctly — from blackletter type to the footnotes.

Discreet by default

We don't publish client names or project details. Engagements stay confidential, on both sides.

Let's talk about text.

If your work depends on text at scale — text that isn't already everywhere — we should talk.
