In testing in Northern Ireland

Keep the data you work with.
Cite it. Know when it changes.

SourceKeep is one place for the figures your work depends on — from official statistics to your own spreadsheets. It keeps its own copy of every source, gives each figure an exact citation, and tells you when the publisher revises it.

How it works

Getting the number is not the hard part

Keeping it is. A figure in a document has no trail behind it: the link breaks, the release is revised, and six weeks later nobody can say which version it was. SourceKeep keeps the trail.

01

Drop it in

Paste a link to a statistics page, upload the spreadsheet you downloaded, or type the figure you were given.

02

Keep it

SourceKeep fetches it once and keeps its own copy, so the chart still draws and the link still works after the publisher moves the page.

03

Cite it

Every figure carries its source, its period and a citation in APA, Harvard, MLA or Chicago — built from the copy, not typed by hand.

04

Know when it changes

Mark a source live and it is checked daily. When the publisher revises a figure you kept, you are told which one and by how much.

Four ways in

Whatever form the data arrives in

A link

A page from NISRA, the ONS, a department or a council. Its tables are read into series, and the data files it offers are listed.

A spreadsheet

Excel, ODS or CSV. The way round a site that asks you to prove you’re human: download it yourself and drop it in.

A reportPremium

A PDF, Word or PowerPoint. SourceKeep finds the figures it cites and checks that its links still work.

A figure or a quote

“£1.2bn”, or a passage from a speech. Kept exactly as written, and marked as yours until you add where it came from.

Built for people who have to be right

Government and public bodies

Briefings that stand up to scrutiny, with every figure traceable to the release it came from.

Researchers and councils

Northern Ireland’s statistics are spread across NISRA, departments, health and eleven councils. Keep them in one place.

Charities and consultancies

Evidence for a bid or a report, cited properly, and still right when someone checks it next quarter.

Comms and journalists

Know the number you quoted last month has been revised before somebody else tells you.

SourceKeep cannot make a number up

Every figure you keep is either one you typed, or one read by code out of a copy of the source that SourceKeep holds. No AI writes a number, a date or a link. Where a model helps — picking out which numbers in a report are cited figures — it can only point at numbers code has already found, and code does the reading.

Each field records who wrote it: you, the source, or a suggestion. So a figure can always be traced back to the exact copy it came from, and the day it was taken.
