Built for home, not for a records department
Powerful where it counts. Quiet everywhere else.
Your archive, your storage
Keep originals on local disk, S3-compatible storage, or WebDAV. Jiandu never requires a hosted account.
Search without the filing ceremony
Browse by familiar metadata, search document text, and let approved household rules take care of repeated corrections.
Designed for the bad day
Resumable intake, verified backups, durable work, and explicit health checks make failures visible and recoverable.
A straightforward rhythm
From scattered files to a dependable archive.
Start with the safe local setup. Add storage, remote access, sign-in providers, or capture sources only when your household needs them.
Follow the first-run guide →- 01Bring documents in
Upload from the browser, watch a folder, scan, import from email, or migrate a reviewed Paperless export.
- 02Review what matters
Jiandu preserves the original first, then shows the title, sender, kind, tags, and processing state you can actually act on.
- 03Find and share safely
Search the household library, restrict exceptional documents, and keep the owner recovery path separate from daily access.
Start small and see a working library.
Choose an install path, complete the first sign-in, and add one document before changing advanced settings.
