Turn Archive User licenses into your Gemini budget.
Reclaim up to 80% of your archive licensing budget - without losing a second of searchability.
Lightning Recall allows you to deactivate Archive User licenses by moving legacy users into Google Cloud Storage while retaining the fast, Vault-like search Legal, Compliance, and HR teams require.
Start investing in your AI future.
Government agencies are increasingly burdened by the cost of Google Archive User (AU) licenses — paid purely to keep legacy data nearline and searchable in response to eDiscovery or regulatory inquiry.
As your departed-user population grows, so does the strain on your budget. Every renewal cycle, the archive line item gets bigger and the innovation line item gets squeezed.
That is capital trapped in the past — capital that should be fueling your Google Gemini AI future.

Export. Search. Find.
Lightning Recall is purpose-built for Google Cloud Platform — optimized to search and retrieve exported Workspace data at enterprise speeds.
Export
Offboarded users are exported out of Workspace and into your own Google Cloud Storage bucket — your project, your region, your control.
Search
Legal, HR, and records teams search across the archive with the instant responsiveness they expect from Vault — no new workflow to learn.
Find
Lightning Recall delivers search hits across exported mail, files and attachments sitting in low-cost GCS.
The Archive User license goes away. The searchability doesn't.
Lower cost. Same answers. Your cloud.
Dramatic reduction in per-user cost
Replace expensive Archive User licenses with a single Lightning IQ Recall license sized to the archive you actually need to search.
Data sovereignty
Your data stays in your own Google Cloud Platform project. No more paying Workspace premiums to park inactive data somewhere else.
Search continuity
Legal and HR teams keep instant search, preview, and export — the workflows they already rely on for eDiscovery and regulatory response.
Purpose-built for GCP
Optimized specifically to search and retrieve data from Google Cloud Storage at enterprise speeds — not a generic connector bolted on.
