Choose from 100+ industry templates for data rooms and use ready-made workflow templates for common operations like financial analysis, expense processing, and contract review. Schedule workflows to run automatically — hourly, daily, or weekly — or trigger them via webhooks.
An accessible approach starts with your business needs, not enterprise-scale infrastructure. With Clear Ideas, SMBs gain competitive advantages through AI capabilities previously reserved for large corporations. Automated quality benchmarking scores every output for accuracy and tone, and scalable pricing ensures businesses grow their AI usage naturally.

What Does "System of Record" Mean for Your Business?
A System of Record represents your organization's authoritative and definitive source for all critical business information and intelligence. For AI and data intelligence, this foundational concept means establishing a comprehensive, centralized platform that serves as the single source of truth for your business:
Centralized Knowledge - All your AI-generated insights, comprehensive analysis, and organizational intelligence consolidated in one secure, accessible location that eliminates information fragmentation Consistent Processes - Standardized workflows and methodologies that ensure reliable, repeatable results across your entire organization regardless of team size or departmental structure Institutional Memory - Capture and preserve your team's specialized expertise and analytical approaches in reusable AI workflows that outlast individual employee turnover Audit Trail - Complete, immutable history of all decisions, analysis processes, and AI interactions for comprehensive compliance, regulatory requirements, and organizational learning
Enterprise Features Without Enterprise Complexity
Traditional Enterprise AI Challenges: Requires dedicated IT teams, specialized infrastructure, and ongoing maintenance commitments that strain limited resources, complex deployment processes and maintenance requirements that demand technical expertise and ongoing support, high licensing costs, long-term contracts, and unpredictable scaling expenses that impact budget planning, and vendor lock-in scenarios that require specialized training and create dependency on single-provider solutions.
Clear Ideas Approach: Browser-based platform accessible from any device with no installation, downloads, or complex setup procedures required, intuitive interfaces designed specifically for business users that enable immediate productivity without technical training, transparent pricing structures with flexible plans that adapt to your business growth and changing needs, and open architecture and modern APIs that grow seamlessly with your business while maintaining flexibility and choice.
