Method

Connect, see, act and absorb

A central brain is one place linked to all your tools, which answers you and cites its sources. Here is how we build it, step by step, without disrupting your team.
Illustration: the three steps of the method, Connect, See, then Act and absorb, leading to the central brain.

The three steps

One step approved before the next

At every step, you know what we do, what we need from you and what you get.

    Mapping and linking your tools

    We start from your tools as they are. We map them, then we link them to the central brain.

    What we do

    • List your tools, what they hold and what flows between them
    • Link each tool, reading first
    • Check that each tool is read correctly

    What we need from you

    • One hour to go over your tools
    • Read access, given by you
    • The data processing agreement, signed

    What you get

    • The map of your tools and your data
    • Your tools linked to the central brain
    • A clear summary of what is linked

    Asking your questions, getting your dashboards

    The brain answers about your whole business and cites its sources. Your dashboards rest on the same data.

    What we do

    • Tune the brain to your everyday questions
    • Build your first dashboards
    • Check the answers with you, source by source

    What we need from you

    • Your questions, in your own words
    • Someone to review the first answers
    • Your priorities for the dashboards

    What you get

    • Sourced answers about your whole business
    • Up-to-date dashboards
    • Permissions respected: everyone sees what they should

    Act and absorb

    Automating, then replacing tools one by one

    Repetitive work is prepared for you. When it helps, a custom brick replaces a tool you pay for.

    What we do

    • Automate follow-ups, drafts and reconciliations
    • Build a custom brick when it serves you better
    • Carry over the history of the replaced tool

    What we need from you

    • Your approvals, action by action
    • Your agreement before each replacement
    • Your feedback on what really helps you

    What you get

    • Repetitive work prepared for you
    • Fewer subscriptions to pay
    • A central brain that grows with you

What we ask of you

Three things, no more

To move forward without doing anything behind your back, we need you at three moments.
  • Read access

    To link your tools, we first ask for read-only access, which you can withdraw at any time.
  • A signed processing agreement

    Before any access to your data, we sign together a data processing agreement that sets what we may do with it, and how.
  • Your approvals

    You approve every step and every action before it goes out. Nothing happens without you.

Before, after

What changes on the map of your tools

Switch from one to the other: the links made by hand disappear, and every tool is linked to the same place.
Fictional example
After: every tool linked to the central brain. The tools marked can be replaced by a custom brick.

    We go through your report together and see where to start.

  3. 03

    A quoted proposal

    What we do, how long it takes and at what price. You decide.
