We are presenting the Archos poster at DHOxSS.
We are presenting Archos at the Digital Humanities @ Oxford Summer School on 24 August 2026 at the University of Oxford.
The poster — Interdisciplinary Uses of AI in the Humanities: Developing an Epistemically Grounded LLM-System for Archival Exploration — sets out the problem of the 'archival deluge'.
In the test run presented in this poster, using the Newton's Royal Mint papers of 1692–1700, we took a single research question about William Chaloner's (1650 – 1699) prosecution. Archos identified 261 primary sources and produced 5 sections and 27 subsections, with 1,688 sentence-level citations across 85,789 words of source-grounded prose. Whole-run compute came to roughly $12.70.

If you are at the summer school, come and find us. We are especially keen to talk to anyone with a collection they would like to discover through the Archos system — see your collection for what that involves.
