ARQS has released Folioknot Ledger, catalogued as KODE-446, a browser tool for small businesses that keep policies, procedures, contract templates and records and need to show which version is in force and when each one was last reviewed.
Users import a document register with one row per version: a document ID, title, version and date, plus optional type, owner, status, review cycle in days, retention date and SHA-256 fingerprint. Lists exported from SharePoint, Google Drive or a spreadsheet are recognised, and invalid or duplicate rows are listed rather than imported.
Folioknot works out the current approved version of each document as of any date, its next review date and whether that review is overdue or due within 30 days. Drafts that have waited longer than a threshold the user picks, documents with no approved version, retired records past their retention date and documents with no owner or review cycle are flagged, worst first.
Any file can be checked against the register: the browser computes its SHA-256 fingerprint and reports which registered version, if any, it matches. The file is not uploaded or stored. Every import and note is kept in a hash-chained journal in the browser, so the register can be checked but not quietly rewritten.
Plans are listed at US$199 a month or US$1,990 a year. Online checkout is not open yet; buyers request access by email.
Details are on the Folioknot Ledger page, with pricing on the access page.
