Act I · Paycheck · Step 02 of 10

Every number, with the paper behind it.

The payslip, the receipt, the offer line, the Form 16. One encrypted place, each one tied to the number it backs.

Why this exists

You need the document on the day you cannot find it.

A folder of PDFs is storage. Knowing which number a page backs is the useful part.

The reimbursement you never claimed sits in an email from fourteen months ago. The rent receipts are in a WhatsApp thread. The Form 16 is on a laptop you handed back.

Awaiting you

Encrypted at rest under a per-user key. Yours to delete, permanently.

ARTH stores the link, not just the file.

Every document points at the figure it backs. Every figure points back at its document.

How a document lands.

Capture is easy. Producing the right page, months later, in under a minute is the part that pays.

  1. 01
    You

    Add it.

    Camera, file picker, or a PDF shared from any app. It arrives because you put it there.

  2. 02
    In the pipeline

    It gets read, in any language.

    Sarvam handles scans, photographs and multi-language pages. A crooked photo of a stamped payslip is a normal input.

  3. 03
    In the pipeline

    Gemini proposes what it says.

    Type, period and figures - each with a confidence rating, and a list of what it could not read.

  4. 04
    You

    You confirm. It attaches.

    The document binds to the figure it supports. A claim later assembles itself from these links, not from your memory.

  5. 05
    On your phone

    It is encrypted before it rests.

    AES-256-GCM under a per-user key. Keys in Google Cloud KMS, files in the asia-south1 region.

  6. 06
    You

    You can delete all of it.

    Scoped, visible, permanent. Your tax and paycheck data goes; your login stays.

What lives here.

Only documents that back a number you can see. Nothing is kept because it might be useful one day.

Offer letter
The promised structure - CTC, fixed and variable, each component with its frequency.
Payslips
One a month, each carrying its own confirmation state.
Form 16
Your employer's TDS record, held against what your own diagnostic computes.
Receipts and bills
Rent, internet, phone - anything backing a claim or a deduction.
Claim packs
A one-page summary with the offer line, the payslip line and the receipt attached.
Your corrections
A timestamped override layer: what the parser read, and what you said instead.
The pipeline

Built with Sarvam and Google.

Reading a document, understanding one, and storing one are three jobs with three different guarantees.

Sarvam AI

Sarvam AI

Document digitisation

Indian payslips arrive as scans, phone photos, and PDFs that were never meant to be read by a machine - often not in English. Sarvam's document-digitisation API turns those pages into clean structured text before anything tries to interpret them.

Runs only on a document you uploaded. Returns text, never a decision.

Google Gemini

Structured interpretation

Gemini takes that text and proposes a structure: employer, pay period, each earning and deduction line, and a confidence rating per line. It also writes down what it is unsure about, as questions for you.

Proposes. Never confirms. Every line lands in your review queue before it counts.

Google Cloud

Keys and encrypted storage

Documents live in encrypted object storage in the asia-south1 region, under per-user keys managed by Google Cloud KMS.

Encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM. Deletable on your command.

Vendor names and logos belong to their owners and are shown here only to describe how ARTH is built. Tax figures are never produced by a language model - those come from a deterministic, versioned rule engine.

What we promise.

Held on purpose. Not a gap waiting for a roadmap.

Your inbox stays yours. No Gmail, no Drive, no mailbox of any kind.

Your documents stay out of every training set, and out of every other account.

Nothing sends itself. A claim pack waits for you to press send.

Delete means deleted. No quiet archive tier, and no way for us to bring it back.

Keep the receipts. You will need exactly one of them.
