Expert knowledge, stored as a graph

We record your experts while they work.

Your experienced employees share their screen or wear smart glasses and explain what they do as they do it. nodessity turns these recordings into a knowledge graph. The graph answers questions from your team, gives AI systems checked facts, and stays after the person who held the knowledge has left.

How it works

From conversations to a working graph.

Most of what keeps a company running is not written down. It is held by a few people and passed on in conversation. We capture it from those people, together with the documents they use.

01

Capture

An expert records a session at their own workplace. In the office this is a screen recording with the expert speaking. On the shop floor it is a pair of smart glasses that records what they see and say. A session covers one real task, for example a tool changeover on an injection moulding machine or a quote for a non-standard order. We add the documents, drawings and records the expert refers to during the session.

Why a graph

Why a graph, and not a wiki with a chatbot.

Interviews miss the detail.

Asked in a meeting room, an expert describes the general case. Recorded at the machine, the same expert names the exception, the workaround and the reason for it. We capture the second version.

Documents hold topics, not relations.

The link between a part, a setting and an exception is in nobody's document. A graph stores that link as a relation and makes it searchable.

AI answers are only as good as their input.

A language model given a folder of PDFs guesses. A language model given checked statements with sources repeats them. The graph is that input.

Your data stays where you decide.

The graph is built from your knowledge and belongs to you. It runs in your own cloud account or on a server on your premises, and we work within GDPR.

Limits

What we do not do.

  • We do not upload your documents into a general model.
  • We do not replace your experts.
  • We do not promise a finished system in a week. The first subject area takes about six weeks.
