iMessage Archiving

Texts are the off-channel risk exams look for. Capture them.

Your team's iMessage conversations — 1:1 and group, including images and GIFs — are business communications when they discuss business. Sharp Archive captures them automatically and reviews 100% of it as it's archived.

Off-channel texts are where exams find surprises.

Recent recordkeeping enforcement has centered on business done over personal texting. Sharp Archive captures iMessage so the record exists — exactly as it was sent.

1:1 and group chats

Individual and group iMessage conversations are captured automatically, with timestamps preserved.

Images and GIFs included

Media shared in a conversation is retained alongside the messages it belongs to.

Every channel, one archive

iMessage sits beside your email, social, and collaboration tools — all 23 channels searchable together.

Intelligent Monitoring

Get alerted to what matters — not to everything.

Teams switching from other archivers tell us the same thing: their old system flags everything, so reviewers spend their days clearing noise — and the message that actually matters gets buried with the rest.

Sharp Archive scans content as it's archived — across all 23 channels, iMessage included — and checks it against the compliance rules that apply to your organization. Content gets a risk score, and only higher-risk items surface for review.

1

Scan on capture

Every message is analyzed the moment it's archived — alongside your other channels.

2

Score against your rules

Content is checked against FINRA, SEC, and agency rules and assigned a risk score, with the specific problematic language highlighted.

3

Surface only what's flagged

When content crosses the risk threshold, your team is notified — so review time goes to genuine concerns, not routine activity.
