Your documents, organised and searchable. Docveta keeps bills, IDs, contracts, certificates and records in one place. It reads the text in your scans (on your graphics card, an AI accelerator or the processor), sorts documents into spaces with tags, and finds anything in seconds, in English, Hindi and other Indian scripts.
Docveta is one program with the web app built in. It runs on Windows, Linux and macOS, on ordinary PCs, servers and small boards like the Raspberry Pi. You use it in a web browser, from your computer or phone.
| Where | How |
|---|---|
| Windows 10/11 PC or server | Run docveta-setup-…-windows-x64.exe (-arm64 for Windows on ARM): installs a service with text recognition and the database. Or unzip the portable ZIP and double-click docveta.exe. |
| Linux server, PC, VM, LXC container, Raspberry Pi | curl -fsSLO https://github.com/anand34577/docveta/releases/latest/download/get-docveta.sh && sudo sh get-docveta.sh |
| Proxmox container on a board with an NPU | First sudo sh get-docveta.sh --proxmox <CTID> on the host, then the Linux line inside the container |
| macOS (Apple silicon or Intel) | tar xzf docveta-…-darwin-arm64.tar.gz && cd docveta-* && ./install.sh |
| Docker, NAS (Synology, Unraid, TrueNAS), Portainer |
docker compose up -d with deploy/docker-compose.yml, nothing to edit |
| Old 32-bit Windows 10 | The x86 installer runs, but without text recognition or the built-in database: it needs a PostgreSQL server |
| Windows 7 / 8.1, very old PCs | Not supported (too old for Docveta's toolchain). Install Docveta on another machine and use it from that PC's browser. |
Then open the address shown (usually http://localhost:8080), click Save and start to use the built-in database, and create your account. No PostgreSQL to install, nothing to configure.
