Organizations have valuable data carefully stored in systems and repositories — but it's often impossible to find because of language differences, format silos, and fragmented storage. We are on a mission to change that.
Before we can solve the document problem, we need to understand it deeply. Here are the four fundamental challenges every enterprise faces with data today.
Most data is captured and stored in a way that makes it incredibly difficult to find, access, and reuse again. Documents are created once, filed away, and effectively lost forever — buried under layers of folders, versions, and naming conventions that only the original author understood.
The result? Teams recreate work that already exists. Insights are duplicated endlessly. The institutional knowledge your organisation paid to produce just... disappears.
Data is sticky. It does not flow easily from source to destination. Information created in one system rarely makes it to another without manual intervention — and even when it does, it arrives in a format that requires yet more manual processing before it's useful.
This stickiness creates data gravity: the larger a data silo grows, the harder it becomes to move data out of it, and the more value remains permanently trapped.
While some knowledge is documented in a formalized manner — what researchers call Explicit knowledge — the vast majority of organisational knowledge is acquired through experience and never written down. This is Implicit knowledge, and it lives only in people's heads.
When employees leave, retire, or move teams, that implicit knowledge disappears with them. Enterprises constantly lose decades of experience because there was never a system to capture it.
Most employees are entirely unaware of existing enterprise knowledge — and so they end up creating "new" knowledge that already exists. This isn't laziness or inefficiency; it's the predictable result of a system that makes discovery impossible.
Without a way to find what your organisation already knows, you're perpetually reinventing the wheel. The ROI on past knowledge investments is effectively zero if no one can find or use that knowledge.
