SUPERPOWER · INGREDIENTS COMING SOON

The ingredients, never the recipe.

Give every sealed file a searchable label. The label is real PDF text that any system can index; the document underneath stays encrypted. Search finds it, AI reads it, nobody opens what they should not.

iManage, dtSearch, your DMS

Windows Search and Spotlight

AI agents and copilots

Zero integration. The label is ordinary PDF text, so everything that indexes PDFs already works.

Encrypted files are invisible to search.

Seal a document and your DMS sees an opaque blob. It falls out of search results, out of matter files, out of every workflow that depends on finding it. Teams end up choosing between protection and findability. Ingredients removes the choice.

Write the label

A one-page summary, an abstract, a table of contents. Write it yourself or have AI draft it from the document. You approve exactly what the world may read.

Bake it on top

The label becomes the visible layer of the .cake.pdf. The document is encrypted underneath, untouched.

Findable everywhere

Every index that reads PDFs picks it up. Search the label, request access, open only if you are keyed.

THE INDEX HABIT

Worth doing even without the encryption

A one-page label on every file is just good hygiene. Your DMS finds it instantly and your AI reads it for a tiny fraction of the tokens the full document costs. If a file is worth keeping, it is worth labeling. Honeycake makes the label automatic, and when the file needs protecting, the label rides on top of the seal.

THE AI ANGLE

Hand agents the label, never the recipe

It works in both directions. At bake time, AI drafts the ingredients page from the document, and you approve it. Downstream, agents get a token-efficient, governance-safe summary to ingest without ever touching the plaintext: they triage thousands of sealed files by their labels and request access only when a file actually matters. Zero-exposure, even from your own automation.

Public by construction

Ingredients pages are public by design: content you choose, readable by anyone who ever receives the file, and not revocable. Put nothing on the label you would not put on the envelope. It is never a default; you opt in per bake.

One flag on the CLI.

# the summary becomes the visible, searchable cover
honeycake bake contract.pdf --ingredients summary.pdf

# whole directories: .ingredients.* sidecars are picked up per file
bakedir --ingredients

CLI first. Coming to the desktop apps and Portal as an advanced option. Never a default.

                Searchable anywhere
                iManage, Windows Search, dtSearch, Spotlight. Zero integration required.
            
                Token-efficient for AI
                Agents read a one-page label instead of ingesting the whole document.
            
                The seal is untouched
                The label is a cover on top of the encrypted payload, verified at bake time.
