News and innovation in digital solutions
Take a peek behind the scenes at Trinera. We share updates and insights into our solutions — including new features and real-world use cases. Discover how our technologies make it easier to manage large collections, simplify workflows, and bring innovation into the daily practice of memory institutions.
5 places where memory institutions waste time when working with data
In this article, we highlight five areas where data workflows typically stall – and the specific solutions we have built based on these principles.
Cropilot: Measure twice, cut with AI
Cropilot is a tool that helps accelerate one of the most time-consuming parts of digitization: scan processing. Using AI, it automatically recognizes pages, suggests their cropping and rotation, and allows the user to easily check or adjust only those results that truly need it. This saves time, reduces manual labor, and simplifies the processing of large digitization batches.
Anakon: When working with data stops being a struggle with the hydra
Library data are vast, vibrant and constantly changing. They migrate, replenish, repair. They often arise for decades and carry historical layers of older rules, retroconversions, and manual interventions. And when one begins to systematically review an institution through a catalog or digital library, one quickly discovers that one patch reveals other problems.
One digital library for everyone: the new Czech Digital Library is here
For more than two decades, the Kramerius digital library has been making historical documents accessible to the general public. Today it is preparing for a major transformation — the unified Czech Digital Library (ČDK) is being created to connect the collections of dozens of institutions in one place. Trinera plays a key role: we are designing and developing the new web interface, which will be clear, accessible and ready for the future.
Paměť novin: What millions of lines of old newspapers can tell us – and how machines understand them
We take a more technical look at Paměť novin: how we selected the data, which technical and content-related limitations we overcame, and what challenges semantic search brings — new possibilities, but also higher demands on data quality, linguistic analysis and how results are handled.
Paměť novin for everyone: Open access, more content, better filtering
Working with historical newspapers is now more convenient and accessible than ever. We extended the available period to 1880–1914, added filtering by time range and removed the need to log in — making it easier to follow topics over time and to ask questions with regard to period and context.
Smart AI features in the Kramerius digital library: Text-to-speech, translations, and summaries
Artificial intelligence is starting to transform the world of digital libraries, which is a true rarity here in the Czech Republic. At Trinera, we work with tools that would have sounded like science fiction just a few years ago. Features like text-to-speech, translation, and automatic summaries directly within the library interface are not yet common even abroad, which is exactly why we find their development so exciting. The Kramerius digital library now offers three new AI features that take reading, research, and information discovery to a whole new level. Whether you are a student, researcher, librarian, or curious reader, these new tools will help you save time, access previously unavailable information, and streamline your work with content.
Paměť novin: A revolution in searching historical documents
Searching through historical documents is becoming a thing of the past — literally. Paměť novin is revolutionizing historical text retrieval with semantic analysis and artificial intelligence. Forget exact phrasing and OCR errors: it understands your query in natural language and serves up relevant articles in seconds.
