What is Knowledge?

Knowledge answers questions from your company’s own documents, and only shows each person what they are allowed to see.

Your business knows more than your systems can access

Most organisations already have valuable knowledge spread across documents, conversations, systems, reports and internal processes.

The problem is not always a lack of information. It is the difficulty of finding the right information, understanding it quickly and turning it into action.

FAQ

Knowledge FAQs

What is Knowledge?

Knowledge is the enterprise intelligence solution within the Exodus Markets ecosystem, designed to help businesses connect organisational knowledge, information and AI-powered workflows so that authorised teams can find answers, understand context and act faster.

What problems does Knowledge solve?

Knowledge is designed to reduce fragmented knowledge, slow information retrieval, repeated internal questions and manual research across business information.

Is Knowledge an AI chatbot?

No. A conversational assistant is one way to use Knowledge, but Knowledge is a broader enterprise intelligence and knowledge layer: it connects approved knowledge sources, organises information for retrieval, respects user permissions and links answers to next steps in business workflows.

Can Knowledge connect to our existing systems?

Knowledge is designed around approved business systems and knowledge sources such as document storage, CRM, ERP and internal systems. Specific integrations are confirmed during implementation.

Does Knowledge replace our document management system?

No. Knowledge is designed to sit across the systems where knowledge already lives and make that knowledge easier to retrieve and use, rather than asking teams to move everything into a new repository.

Who is Knowledge for?

Organisations that want employees to access internal knowledge and business information more efficiently — from leadership and operations to sales, service, HR, finance and compliance teams.
