“Dewey is an AI-powered librarian designed to help newsrooms make their archives easy to search, making use of LLMs to provide cited responses.
Archival research methods are cumbersome. Often times, they rely on keyword searches and date range filtering, making it difficult to surface topics without specific preexisting knowledge. Moreover, archives can live across disparate source systems/databases because of how content management systems evolve over time. Unifying these systems with a state-of-the-art search engine hopes to make archive research easier and more efficient for reporters.”
