Legacy Integration Guide

An agwitness PDF looks like a traditional legal document. It has a clear date, parties, terms, and consideration. No JSON. No 'agent_id' or 'negotiation_log.' If your accountant is used to purchase orders and invoices, they will recognize the format immediately.

The document header includes a deed ID and notary seal. The body is structured like a standard contract: parties, recitals, terms, consideration, and signatures. We use legible fonts and standard margins.

Keep it simple. You might say: 'This is a record of an automated purchase. The system I use negotiates with suppliers and generates these deeds. They're designed for your files—same as any PO.'

If they ask about the QR code: 'It's for verification. You can scan it to confirm the document hasn't been altered. Think of it like a digital seal.' Most professionals will accept that without needing to understand the underlying cryptography.

Every deed is formatted to ISO standards for long-term archival. Your records will be readable in 50 years, whether stored digitally or printed. This matters for audits, tax disputes, and legal discovery.

We recommend printing critical deeds for physical files. The PDF is also suitable for digital archival systems used by law firms and accounting practices.
