The Data Your LLM Needs Is Already There. PDA Labs Brings It to Life.
Pacific Digital Archiving (PDA) Labs scans legacy documents into searchable PDFs, then converts them into clean, structured, AI ready data for more accurate search, analysis and reuse, delivering over 90% lower token consumption and up to 99% lower compute energy use than parsing equivalent PDFs.
Less compute. Cooler data centres. Lower token costs. Document Intelligence. Sustainable AI.

Zero Drift Analysis
Built for AI-agents, tuned for speed, and structured for zero context loss and zero drift.
Our workflow prepares your information for analytics, search, compliance, and AI tools — ensuring your data is usable, reliable, and ready for downstream processing.
The result is a stable, predictable, AI‑ready data‑set optimised for analytics, search, compliance, and downstream automation.
Token Optimisation
AI-ready data chunks are shaped to match how modern agents ingest data, eliminating token bloat and friction inside LLM pipelines for zero loss ingestion and 90%+ less token spend, 90%+ less compute & zero evidential loss.
We remove only the image layers and preserve every underlying data element, maintaining 100% evidential integrity throughout the fully audited conversion process.
Whole Case Legal AI–Discovery Advantage
PDA Labs transforms large collections of case documents into customised, AI agent centric data for whole case discovery. Legal professionals can uncover relevant evidence, connect facts across documents, build chronologies and identify inconsistencies across an entire matter while reducing token consumption and processing time.
Real‑World Test : Legal Dispute
PDA processed 28 dispute‑related PDF strings filled with scanned legacy documents totalling 8,199 pages and over 6 GB of source material.
- Original PDFs: 1.1M–1.5M tokens
- After optimised output: 110k–300k tokens
- Token reduction: 800k–1.3M tokens removed
- Efficiency gain: verified 89%–95% optimisation
This reduction eliminated 16–20 hours of AI processing time with no drift, zero evidential loss and delivered clear insights.
