A Better Way to Work with Documents

The new document interface is here! It’s faster, clearer, and built for modern compliance.

Document management is one of the most critical tasks in compliance operations. Every document has a lifecycle, issuance, expiry, replacement and each stage has regulatory implications.

The Previous Grid-Based Layout

The old grid-style interface presented documents in a spreadsheet-like table. While functional, it treated documents as flat rows of data instead of compliance records with context and urgency.

Introducing, a new Card-Based Layout

You’ll now see each document as its own “Card”, with the most important information front and center:

  • Clear Status Indicators: Green for Active. Yellow for Expiring Soon. Red for Expired. No more second-guessing.

  • Lifecycle at a Glance: See issue dates, expiry dates, submission details all without clicking in.

  • Instant Signals: Know if a document is confidential or superseded

No need to run reports, just to answer a simple question. The answers are right in front of you.

Live Search – Find documents blazingly fast

This new human-centered search will find documents as you type. SILO will start narrowing the list as you type, searching across every field in the document — title, type, even dates and notes.

For example:

  • Start typing “passport”, and all passport documents appear.

  • Type “May 2023”, and anything tied to that date shows up.

  • Type “confidential corporate”, and you’ll see exactly what you need.

Smart Filters - Because your time is too valuable to waste digging.

You’re not here to scroll through hundreds of documents. Compliance work isn’t about browsing. It’s about acting on the right documents at the right time.

We’ve built “Smart Filters” to let you instantly zero-in on the documents that need your eyes right now. With just a click, you can:

  • Show only expired documents: Act before someone else flags it.

  • Show documents expiring soon: Stay ahead of renewal cycles, not behind them.

  • Sort by what matters: Name, expiration date, document name — whatever makes the most sense for the task at hand.

No more scrolling. No more guesswork. Just the signal without the noise.

Summary

This change is not about aesthetics, it’s about making your compliance work more efficient, accurate, and defensible. By surfacing compliance-critical information at a glance, the system helps you maintain stronger oversight while spending less time navigating screens. This update helps you:

  • Save time reviewing documents.

  • Spot risk before it becomes a problem.

  • Stay defensible when decisions get reviewed.

  • Reduce stress during audits and file reviews.
