Historical Due Diligence
When a historical claim needs to hold up.
The same source-led method behind The Black Archive, available as a commissioned service for producers, publishers, museums and professional teams who need a historical claim verified before it goes public.
From research method to research consultancy.
The Black Archive’s evidence method, source hierarchy, contradiction mapping, narrative distortion analysis, was built for public case studies. The same method is now available as a private commission through The Black Archive Research, a dedicated historical evidence consultancy.
Where The Black Archive publishes essays, podcasts and public investigations, the consultancy delivers private, structured evidence dossiers: pre-publication fact verification, documentary research dossiers, heritage and exhibition research, and professional evidence review for disputes or due diligence.
See the method first.
The Black Archive’s public case files, on this site and via the podcast, demonstrate the method directly. The consultancy applies the same discipline privately, scoped to your project, deadline and intended use.
