THE GAP

THE MISSING HALF OF AGENT GOVERNANCE

Permission is not
truth.

An agent can be perfectly authorised and still act on the wrong policy. Company Brain closes that gap.

01B / THE NEXT CONTROL

The right answer still needs
the right intelligence.

AI workloads can increasingly run across different models, providers and execution paths. Company Brain lets organisations define which intelligence is appropriate for each workload—based on quality, privacy, reliability and economic policy.

02 / HOW IT WORKS

Three moves.
One trusted answer.

A physical flow from governed source documents, through human approval, to agent-ready knowledge
GOVERNED FLOWSOURCE → HUMAN → AGENT
01

Connect the source.

Bring policies, procedures and operational knowledge into one governed layer.

02

Approve what is true.

A named person reviews the knowledge before any agent can use it.

03

Stay current.

When a source changes, affected answers are flagged for review until a correction is approved.

03 / ANSWER AUTOPSY

Break the source.
Watch trust respond.

Every governed answer depends on knowledge that can change. Open this one up, change the policy underneath it, and watch Company Brain find every answer that depended on it.

Choose Team
Important: Self-serve plans use the same core governance architecture as Enterprise—standard deployment, support and assurance terms, with no customer-specific attestation, bespoke operating evidence or Industry Packs. That does not mean they are insecure; it means Enterprise is where formal, customer-specific assurance is sold. Annual billing gives two months free. Drift scans are capped at 12 per active source per month.
USAGE CREDITS

Company Brain Credits cover a temporary spike above your plan's included usage—not a substitute for the next plan.

Standard price100 credits for $20. Larger bundles carry transparent volume discounts.
What they coverExtra reads, operations, drift scans, skill runs, write-backs and Operator actions.
What they don't coverPermanent fact, skill or source capacity, curators, SSO, SCIM, attestation or Industry Packs.
Commercial guardrailCovering the next plan's usage increase with credits alone should cost roughly 1.5–2× the price gap between plans — credits are for a spike, not sustained growth.
RECURRING CAPACITY ADD-ONS

Permanent growth in facts, sources, skills or curators is purchased as a recurring add-on, not usage credits.

What add-ons coverAdditional active facts, sources, skills or curators, Operator, higher drift-monitoring frequency, extra environments and custom connectors.
How blocks scaleIndicative blocks grow with plan: Pro and Team add in 5,000-fact / 5-skill blocks. Beyond Team, capacity is scoped custom to your organisation on Enterprise.
PricingExact add-on prices are confirmed with your account team before purchase, not published as a fixed list here.

06 / WHAT IT CHANGES

Built for the moment
“probably” becomes risk.

01LIABILITY CONTROL
BLOCK

Stop the wrong answer.

When a policy changes, stale knowledge is withdrawn before it becomes customer-facing liability.

02AUDIT EVIDENCE
PROVE

Prove every answer.

Export a clean evidence trail showing what was used, where it came from and who approved it.

03SKILL SUPPLY CHAIN
ALLOW

Trust every skill.

Ground, review and approve agent skills before they enter the organisation’s operating environment.

04EXECUTION CONTROL
BOUND

Use the right intelligence.

Keep AI execution inside approved quality, privacy, reliability and cost boundaries—not the cheapest model, the appropriate one.

VISUAL ESSAY / THREE CONDITIONS OF TRUST

Trust needs a
physical language.

Evidence, human authority and change control should be visible—not buried in a system log.

A monumental archive built from interlocking document slabs
01 / EVIDENCE

Evidence has structure.

Auditability should feel built in—not assembled under pressure.

A verified blue policy layer held steady while outdated layers drift away
02 / CHANGE

Drift should be visible.

When the source moves, trust must move with it.

03 / AUTHORITY

THE CONTROL CHAINSOURCE

Every trusted answer keeps its origin and owner attached.

COMPANY BRAIN / 2026
07 / WHERE IT FITSCHANNEL STRATEGY

One control.
Three buyer routes.

Company Brain turns knowledge governance into a practical risk, assurance and evidence proposition—starting with the question each buyer already needs answered.

A blue knowledge core connecting through three verified routes
ONE CONTROL / MULTIPLE ROUTES

ONE KNOWLEDGE CONTROL
THREE CLEAR WAYS IN

01AI-LIABILITY INSURERS

A claims-prevention control.

Give AI liability insurance providers and AI-deploying insureds a practical control for stale, fabricated, unapproved or out-of-policy AI execution - with evidence that supports underwriting conversations.

START WITH A MATERIAL DECISION“Which AI answer could create the most avoidable loss when a policy changes?”

FIRST PROOFA visible stale-answer control and reviewable loss-prevention record.

02AUDIT & ADVISORY

Evidence with a chain of custody.

Give assurance teams a reviewable record of the source, approver, change state and execution policy behind every governed answer.

START WITH ONE TESTABLE ASSERTION“Can the team trace this agent answer back to a source and accountable owner?”

FIRST PROOFAn Evidence Pack that shows origin, authority, change and impact together.

03EU AI ACT / GRC

Traceability that is ready to review.

Support EU AI Act compliance readiness with a reliable evidence layer for governance, approved execution policy, record-keeping and internal-control workflows as obligations evolve.

START WITH ONE HIGH-IMPACT USE CASE“Where would a reviewer need proof that an AI answer was current and governed?”

FIRST PROOFA traceability workflow to support internal governance and readiness conversations.

Company Brain supports governance, evidence and compliance-readiness work; it does not itself provide a legal certification or replace professional assurance.

09 / PRODUCT PROOF

Every answer
has a receipt.

An Evidence Pack keeps the source, the person accountable for it, the change event and the affected agent answer in one reviewable record.

It gives assurance teams something more useful than a claim: a clear chain they can inspect, export and discuss with the control owner—one that is extending to show the workload policy and execution path behind an answer, alongside its knowledge.

01 / ORIGINSource-linked

The policy and its version stay attached to the answer.

02 / AUTHORITYNamed owner

One accountable reviewer decides what is true.

03 / CHANGEImpact visible

Affected answers are flagged until the change is reviewed.

04 / EXECUTIONPolicy-bound

The model, provider and workload policy behind the answer stay attached too.

Built to support evidence and traceability workflows; it does not itself certify legal or regulatory compliance.

Company Brain is designed to sit alongside the identity, access and runtime controls you already use. It gives source knowledge a clear route to an agent: connected, reviewed, versioned and released with an owner.

11 / VALUE MODEL

Make control

This model follows two costs Company Brain is built to reduce: rechecking answers that lack a clear source, and fixing answers after a governed source changes.

Planning model only. It is not a savings promise, quote or claim of guaranteed outcomes.

VISIBLE ORIGINNAMED AUTHORITYCHANGE AWARE
BUYER DUE DILIGENCE / 05 ANSWERED DIRECTLY
01Is Company Brain another chatbot?

No. It is a knowledge-governance layer for the material an agent relies on: where it came from, who approved it, what changed and whether it is still safe to use.

02Does it replace our identity, access or agent-runtime controls?

No. Those controls remain important. Company Brain is designed to complement them by governing the knowledge behind an agent’s answer, not by replacing the systems that control what an agent can do.

03Does this make an organisation EU AI Act compliant?

No product can make an organisation compliant on its own. Company Brain can support governance, record-keeping, traceability and internal evidence workflows as part of a wider compliance-readiness programme.

04Who decides what an agent is allowed to know?

A named human owner does. Company Brain is built around visible authority: the source, reviewer and approval decision stay attached to the knowledge route.

05What does a first engagement look like?

A controlled, scoped workflow: choose one material decision, use an appropriate bounded environment and finish with an evidence-led view of the control gap and next decision.
