> Records stay encrypted for as long as your policy says, held when a dispute needs them, and ready to search, replay and export.

> ### Communications Archive
> Every record kept for the period your policy sets, from one day to 10 years, then deleted on schedule. Legal hold stops deletion while a case is open, and records and their transcripts export when a regulator or court asks.

> ## Risk spotted during the call, or right after it
>
> Every call is transcribed by frontier AI models, hosted in the EU with more regions to follow. Rules you write in plain language check each one and alert the right people, and Argus AI answers questions across the archive.

>
> ### Speech-to-text transcription
> Every recorded call and meeting turned into a transcript that labels who said what, in 60+ languages live and 75+ after the call. Each transcript stays with its recording, ready to search, summarize or ask Argus AI about.

>
> ### Real-time analytics
> With the Real-time add-on, your rules check each call as it happens. The person on the call sees each alert while they can still put it right, such as in the Argus app in Microsoft Teams, and the same alert reaches your compliance team.

> ### AI Workflows
> Describe your business and what to check in plain language, with no code. Every call is reviewed against your rules, after the call or live, and each alert goes to the right person, with every decision on it recorded.

> ### AI Assurance
> Try every rule change on past calls from your archive and on test conversations the AI drafts for you, before it goes live. Every version, change note and test run stays on record, ready for your auditors.

> Platform
>
> ## Why one platform matters
>
> Many firms piece together separate tools for capture, storage and review, often from different suppliers. Every join between them is a place where records go missing, policies drift and the audit trail breaks. Argus Archive captures, keeps and reviews communications in one platform, with one contract, one support team and costs you can plan.
>
> ### One record per conversation
> A conversation's content, transcript, alerts, notes and the cases it belongs to sit in one record, so a reviewer sees the full picture in one place.
>
> ### One policy for the whole record
> Retention and legal hold cover everything in the record. A transcript is kept and deleted with the call it came from, never left behind in another tool.
>
> ### An unbroken chain of custody
> Records never move between systems, so one audit trail covers each one from capture to deletion, including every view and change.
>
> ### AI-native
> AI was part of the design from the first day. Transcription, rules and Argus AI work on the archive itself, with nothing to export to an outside AI tool.

>
> ### Which communications does it archive?
> Calls and meetings from supported communication platforms today, with email and chat to follow. Talk to us about the platforms you use.
>
> [See integrations](/integrations/)
>
> ### Who is Argus Archive for?
> Firms that must keep their business communications, such as financial services, legal and the public sector, and any business that records calls for quality, training or disputes.
>
> ### How is Argus Archive different from the recording built into communication platforms?
> Built-in recording, such as Microsoft Teams recording, is designed for collaboration. Argus Archive is built for keeping and reviewing records, with retention, legal hold, audit logging, controlled access and AI review.
>
> ### Do we need to install anything?
> No. Argus Archive is a cloud service on Microsoft Azure. An administrator connects it and chooses whose communications are captured, and people sign in with their work account.
>
> ### How much does it cost?
> Argus Archive is priced per user, per month, with usage included, and you're warned before you go over.
