Founding 100 — limited spots

A pile of confetti
is not an audit trail.

Clinics, law offices, and accounting firms have to prove client records were destroyed — and a shredding receipt only proves a bin was emptied. The DISSID Scanner Shredder captures, verifies, and stores every page before the blade touches it, then writes a timestamped destruction record for every document. Proof for your auditor, in one pass.

Proof of Destruction, Built In

The hold-and-verify mechanism generates an auditor-ready record for every destruction event. Outsourced shredding leaves you a receipt that a bin was emptied — a national shredding vendor settled for $1.1M over failure to shred. Proof of compliance for teams. Peace of mind for individuals.

the device

The machine that makes the proof.

An A4-footprint attachment that sits on your shredder — it buffers, scans, and verifies every page before the blade. Here it is, in the round.

how it works

Mount. Scan. Verify. Shred.

01
MOUNT

Install in Minutes

Place the Scanner Shredder attachment on top of your existing office shredder. No tools required — installs in under 10 minutes on any standard top-feed model.

< 10 min
02
SCAN

Duplex Capture

Feed documents as normal. Both sides are automatically scanned at 300+ DPI. The system detects each page and initiates scanning without any buttons or intervention.

automatic
03
VERIFY

Hold & Confirm

The hold-and-verify gate keeps the document until the scan is confirmed legible and safely synced to your cloud storage. Nothing is shredded until it is archived.

zero risk
04
SHRED

Secure Destruction

Once verified, the gate releases the document into the shredder. A timestamped audit log records the event — who, what, when — for compliance reporting.

the problem

The Problems We Hear

A growing pile of paper on the home-office desk — tax records, old contracts, letters with personal info. Every time I try to shred something I freeze: did I scan this? I end up putting it back in the pile. The pile never shrinks.

Remote worker · home office
Paper Pile

100+ sensitive client documents a month from a home office. The shredder breaks every few months — and there's zero way to prove what I destroyed if a client ever asks.

Independent financial advisor
Home Office

An office manager spends ~3 hours a week at the shredder. Documents jam constantly, and there's no proof of destruction for compliance audits.

Compliance Gap
why we built this

A shredder built for a brain, not an office.

For some of us, destroying something we haven’t backed up isn’t just inconvenient — it’s a full stop. You hold a document over the shredder for twenty minutes. Not because you forgot to scan it. Because you can’t be certain you did.

Most people scan, then shred — two devices, two steps, two moments to fail. We didn’t need a reminder app. We needed a machine that made it physically impossible to destroy something unsaved. Not a workflow. A gate.

The same gate that removes the anxiety for individuals also generates a verifiable destruction record for teams with compliance requirements. One mechanism. Two markets.

Why this matters

  • 40M+adults in North America with attention or executive-function differences (~15% of adults) — the primary market no shredder was built for
  • ~$27Bassistive technology market, growing ~7% annually
  • 4.5M tonsof paper shredded annually in North America — none of it digitized first
  • ~$3Bglobal document-shredding market — zero scan-before-shred products
for personal use

Shred Away Your Anxiety!

The paper pile you keep avoiding stops being a source of dread. Remote workers, home-office users, anyone with a stack of sensitive paper that keeps growing — every feature exists to replace the nagging doubt with a single, calm pass through the machine.

Never Destroy the Wrong Record

Every page is captured and stored before it is ever cut — so a document you still needed is never gone for good. The pile on your desk stops being a source of dread when you know anything you feed through will be kept first.

A Hardware Gate, Not a Promise

A mechanical hold-and-verify gate physically blocks the shredder blade until the scan is confirmed stored. Not a setting you have to remember to enable — the machine enforces it on every page, every time.

Everything Saved, Forever Findable

Every scan lands in your cloud — organized, searchable, retrievable in seconds. No more wondering if you kept a copy somewhere. A $19/mo founding rate keeps the archive running; public price $29/mo after launch.

the mechanism

How the box works, inside.

An A4-footprint attachment that sits on top of your existing shredder. Deposit a stack, and it scans, verifies, and only then destroys each page — hands-free.

  1. 01
    DEPOSIT

    Dump the stack

    Drop up to 100+ sensitive pages into the top inlet — then walk away.

  2. 02
    BUFFER

    FIFO magazine

    The magazine queues every page, decoupling your feeding from the scan-and-shred cycle.

  3. 03
    VERIFY

    Scan → confirm

    Each page is duplex-scanned and hash-verified. Red while scanning, green once a durable copy is stored.

  4. 04
    DESTROY

    Shred or hold

    Verified pages drop into the shredder; low-confidence pages divert to a hold tray. Nothing is destroyed without a confirmed copy.

Built by someone who needed it too

Every project below started as a personal friction point — the same design constraint driving the Scanner Shredder.

Wayfinder

A wearable that taps your wrist when you've over-talked. Self-awareness, on tap. Built for ADHD.

GymNote AI

Private beta

Zero-interaction workout logging; the friction that makes ND folks quit the gym, removed.

…alongside computer-vision, compliance-automation, and AI tooling work. Same brain. Same obsession with removing friction.
