    Move your legacy data in from your previous software: upload files, folders and ZIP archives, answer the open questions, review the records found and apply them group by group. Nothing is written to your data before you apply a group, and every group can be undone.

  • Processes

    Describe how your company works as BPMN diagrams. Link every step to the tables and fields it reads, writes, creates or approves, follow a process from start to end and see in Company Brain which steps use a piece of data. In Track or Enforce mode, processes run: every case is followed step by step, and approval steps can block the follow up action.

  • Brain and Advisor

    Brain is the AI assistant of BizCortex: you ask in plain language, and it reads your data and prepares changes that you confirm. Advisor watches the company every day and tells you what needs attention, with the numbers, the reason and the next steps. The Company Brain links compliance rules, your company data, documents and templates, checks what is met and shows which documents you can already create.

    35 pages

  • Compliance: versions, approvals and comments

    In the Compliance app every object has versions: categories (including General), product families, products, knowledge groups, documents and files. Drafts can be changed, approved versions are read only, and a submission goes out only with approved versions. Everybody involved can comment while an object is being written and while it is being reviewed.

    4 pages
