The brain

What you approve is remembered.

Findings you approve become part of your organisation's memory: a map that links each finding to the exact answers behind it and to the processes it concerns.

  • Only approved findings go in. Rejected ones never do.
  • Replaced findings are kept in history, not overwritten.
  • Looked up by relevance and recency, only inside your organisation.
  • Answers stay anonymous: respondents appear as numbers.
One brain for every engagementEngagements such as a finance diagnostic, a procurement audit and an HR focus group feed answers, words and votes into a brain. Approved findings in it link back to that evidence and forward to the processes they concern.ENGAGEMENTSYOUR BRAINAPPROVED FINDINGSPROCESSESFinance diagnosticProcurement auditHR focus groupPain pointOpportunityRiskThemeCapture invoicesApprove invoicesExecute paymentsResolve exceptionsanswers, words, votes
The evidence register: each row ties an evidence ID to a response, a respondent role, the question and the exact words.
Every finding traces to the exact answer
  1. Evidence IDs tie a finding to a response.
  2. The exact words, never rewritten.
