Regulated disclosure platform
Disclosure you can defend.
One platform for every disclosure obligation you carry — subject access, FOI and EIR, public inquiries, criminal and civil disclosure, and health records. Every redaction carries its reason, and every release can be proved.

How it works
Different regimes. The same four steps.
What changes between regimes is the rule for withholding and the clock. The work is the same.
- 01
Discover
Bring in everything that might be responsive — mailboxes, file shares, forensic images, scans and recordings — with its source recorded.
- 02
Decide
Your reviewers decide what is withheld. Every mark carries its legal basis and the name of the person who decided.
- 03
Act
Redactions are burned into a new copy, not drawn over it. The original is never altered.
- 04
Prove
Every step is written to a hash-chained record, so you can show what was released, what was withheld, why and by whom — years later.
Every obligation you carry
Subject access requests
Answer the request. Then prove you answered it properly.
FOI and EIR
Every exemption and exception on record, not remembered.
Public inquiries
Meet the notice. Show how you met it.
Criminal disclosure
Schedules you can stand behind.
Health records
A health record is never only about one person.
Smartbox Gen 2
Redaction is the easy part.
Gen 2 is built for the step that decides whether a disclosure survives challenge: proving what was withheld, why, and who decided. Early adopter programme from the end of October 2026; general availability January 2027.
Why Smartbox
Built to survive challenge
- 01
A person decides
The platform proposes; your reviewers decide. No AI model decides what is withheld, and the same input always gives the same result.
- 02
Burned into the file
Redactions are burned into a new copy and checked again before anything is released.
- 03
Provable years later
Every lifecycle event is hash-chained, every redaction is recorded with its reviewer, and every access is logged.
