01
Immutable source storage
Original files are preserved separately from thumbnails, previews, OCR text, and feature metadata.
Digital system of record
Immutable originals. Verifiable proof.
Granite Mesa preserves digital assets and documents as original copies, records cryptographic proof, captures metadata at scale, and maintains ownership history without altering the source file.
Original
Source files remain distinct from previews and extracted data.
Proven
Hashes, manifests, versions, and events support verification.
Governed
Retention, access control, and audit records are built in.
Proof-first repository
Every original needs evidence.
Granite Mesa is designed around the ability to answer what was stored, when it was stored, who had custody, and whether the current bytes match the original proof record.
02
Cryptographic verification
Hash records, file size, version data, timestamps, and signed manifests support repeatable proof.
03
Ownership history
Custody, control, assignment, and access events can be traced across the life of an asset.
04
Audit-ready events
Upload, validation, view, download, enrichment, and administrative actions are recorded as durable events.
05
Governance controls
Retention, legal hold, policy boundaries, and object-level permissions are core design concerns.
06
Verification interface
Users should be able to inspect the original proof record without needing direct infrastructure access.
Capture and enrichment
From single upload to large-scale ingest.
Granite Mesa supports direct uploads and large batch intake while keeping originals isolated from all derived work.
- Presigned upload and download flows for controlled file movement.
- Queue-based processing for validation, hashing, extraction, and retry handling.
- OCR and feature detection stored as derived metadata, never as a mutation of the original.
- Exception handling for failed files, incomplete metadata, and verification mismatches.
Architecture direction
Built for trust, scale, and operational clarity.
The platform direction is AWS-native: S3 for original object storage, serverless processing, durable queues, strong identity, encryption, audit logging, and document-focused governance.
Proof record
A clear verification record for each original: hash, timestamp, version, manifest, and custody events.
Secure access
Identity, MFA, encryption, object-level authorization, and complete access audit are expected design foundations.
Ownership history
Granite Mesa can show who controlled an original, when control changed, and how access was used.
Granite Mesa is being built
A stronger foundation for digital originals.
