Source (bemysource.com) is a human-powered research network that connects clients with specialist contributors who physically access archives, libraries, court records, and museum collections worldwide. Every engagement is conducted by a verified researcher in a real institution, with no AI involved at any stage. The network operates on a payment-for-time model, reflecting how archival and provenance work actually functions.
Founded in 2026 by provenance researcher Angelina Giovani Agha, Source was built in response to a simple but urgent problem: the people who need specialist archival research and the people who can conduct it have no reliable way to find each other. Source exists to close that gap fairly, transparently, and without shortcuts.
