No need for XML editors

Thanks to the browser-based user interface, there is no need for using an external XML editor – assign tags with the help of the convenient graphical user interface.

Prepare your data for digital editions

Transkribus makes it easy to create accessible and user-friendly digital editions of your documents. Annotate your documents with the Transkribus platform’s easy-to-use web interface and then share your document collections online with the help of Transkribus Sites.

Comply with Text Encoding Initiative(TEI) standards

Transkribus supports the creation of TEI-compliant XML documents, which makes it possible to share digital editions with other scholars, collaborate on them, integrate them into larger projects, and sometimes to fulfil grant application requirements.

Enhance the searchability of your documents

Annotating your documents with Transkribus significantly improves the searchability of your material. With the dedicated tag-search feature, you can even narrow down your searches to specific tags, such as names or places.

Enrich your data with named entity linking

The data annotation features of Transkribus allow you to easily enrich your documents with metadata. By linking named entities to authority files like national databases, Wikidata or others, you can enhance the information in your documents and reduce ambiguity.
