Platform architecture

External Delivery Layer

Transform approved documents and deliver them to systems of record — without becoming a storage product.

Architecture scaffold only. External provider OAuth and delivery APIs are not active yet.

Positioning

Document Instantly is the AI document forge — capture, generate, edit, improve, review, approve. The External Delivery Layer (EDL) transforms approved artifacts and graduates them into systems of record (Google, Microsoft, Atlassian, Slack, S3, webhooks). Document Instantly does not compete on long-term storage.

Current phase

Phase 1: connector registry, export orchestrator placeholder, Export Center UI, retention model constants. No OAuth, queue workers, or provider SDK calls.
