Why SnippetSentry Doesn’t Batch Messages—And Why That Matters for Compliance

When it comes to message capture and compliance, speed and precision aren’t just nice to have—they’re essential. That’s why at SnippetSentry, we’ve made a deliberate design decision not to batch messages or temporarily hold on to your data.

Here’s why:

1. Minimizing Risk Exposure

Storing message data, even briefly, introduces unnecessary risk. Whether it’s a security breach, data corruption, or questions during an audit, any system that holds sensitive messages—even for a short time—becomes a liability. By passing messages directly to your archiving destination in real time, SnippetSentry removes that risk from the equation.

2. Letting the Archive Do Its Job

We believe your archive should be your single source of truth. That’s why we send captured messages directly to your designated archiving provider—no detours, no delays. Whether you’re using Global Relay, Smarsh, or another solution, our platform is designed to integrate seamlessly and keep your compliance posture airtight.

3. Simplified Audits and Clean Chains of Custody

The more hands a message passes through, the harder it is to defend during an audit. By avoiding batching, SnippetSentry creates a clean, direct path from point of capture to point of retention—no intermediate storage, no blurred lines, just verifiable message flow.

4. Faster Visibility

With direct message forwarding, compliance teams gain access to communications as they happen. This supports faster review cycles, incident response, and overall transparency.

The Bottom Line
When compliance is on the line, your message capture platform shouldn’t hang onto your data. At SnippetSentry, we keep things simple: capture, pass, and archive—without introducing unnecessary risk. Because compliance is complex enough. Your message pipeline shouldn’t be.
