SERMON / USA: PRIORITY
SAT Grant Deadline — June 16, 2026

5-Hour Pilot for Save America's Treasures Applicants

Federal funding now requires accessible research metadata, WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance (April 2027), and PBCore-ready XML. We turn dark audio archives into searchable finding aids in 24 hours so you can include proof-of-concept data in your grant narrative.

Request the 24-Hour Pilot

Send us up to 5 hours of audio. We return timecoded transcripts, speaker labels, named-entity extraction, and a PBCore XML sample you can drop into your SAT narrative.

For grants officers, collections managers, and archive directors.

SAT & NEH Compliance

Outputs aligned to the federal “accessible research metadata” requirement: searchable transcripts, speaker turns, citable timestamps, and a public-facing finding aid.

PBCore Metadata Output

Structured PBCore XML for machine-readable discovery. Drop directly into LOC, DPLA, and state digital library workflows.

99% Accuracy on Heritage Audio

Fine-tuned for cassette, reel-to-reel, and noisy field recordings. Tuned for civil-rights, oral history, and tribal-language archives where general models fail.

5-10% of Manual Cost

Institutional pricing built for the grant economy. Pilot is free; production runs come in well under typical SAT line-item budgets for transcription.

Theme Alignment

Veteran's Voice

Military oral histories and magnetic-tape recovery. Built for VA-funded and DoD-affiliated archive projects.

American Soundtrack

Unreleased jazz sessions, music archives, and performance recordings. PBCore-native discovery for music libraries.

Civil Rights

99% accuracy on Southern field recordings, courthouse interviews, and movement leader oral histories.

Tribal Heritage

Indigenous language preservation with cultural-protocol gating. America 250 record contribution.
