Overview

Paperless-ngx is an open source document management system that ingests scans and PDFs, runs OCR to make them searchable, and archives and tags them in a private, searchable library. It replaces paper filing with a structured digital archive.

Why the cloudimg image

cloudimg ships Paperless-ngx preinstalled with PostgreSQL, Redis, tesseract OCR and nginx, so it is ready with no manual setup. A fresh administrator password, Django secret key and database password are generated for every instance on first boot and stored in a root only file, with no documents or shared credentials in the image and 24/7 support included.

Common uses

  • Private document archives
  • Searchable paperless offices
