Live AI knowledge layer

Your team is paying for answers it already owns.

Every week, people interrupt colleagues and dig through folders for answers already sitting in your manuals, policies, and contracts. Knova turns those documents into an answer engine that cites its source every time — so the answer is fast, and provable.

Features

The knowledge base your team actually wants to use

A premium AI search experience wrapped around the controls businesses need.

Auditable answers

Every answer links to the exact source passage. A wrong answer is traceable and correctable, not mysterious.

It says when it doesn't know

Knova answers only from your documents. No source, no answer — so nobody acts on an invented one.

Isolation you can show an auditor

Per-organisation data separation, role-based access, and invite-only sign-in as standard.

Proof of return

See which teams ask what, which documents carry the load, and where your knowledge gaps are.

Plain-English questions

No query syntax and no training. People ask the way they would ask a colleague.

Office, field, or phone

A focused web and mobile experience, so the answer reaches the person on site.

Security

Built for documents that carry legal and safety weight.

The controls your risk, legal, and IT reviewers will ask about — answered before they ask.

EU data residency

Your documents are stored and processed in the EU (Ireland), never replicated elsewhere.

Isolated data

Each organisation's documents live in a separate, controlled environment.

No AI training

Your content is used to answer your team only, never to train public models.

Encrypted

Data is protected at rest and in transit with modern cloud security controls.

Invite-only access

Your knowledge base is never public. Only approved users can sign in.

Audit trail

Uploads, deletions, invites, and admin changes are logged with actor and timestamp.

EU Hosted

Your data stays in the EU, isolated per organisation, and is never used to train public models. Administrators can permanently delete documents and remove users, and every such action is written to an audit log. Configurable retention periods are on the roadmap — ask us where that sits against your timeline.

Product tour

Everything your team needs. Nothing they don't.

Three views, one knowledge layer — ask it, trace it, manage it.

What is the approved overtime policy for field engineers?
Knova AI

Field engineers may claim overtime at 1.5× their base rate for any hours worked beyond 8 per day. Weekend shifts qualify for double time (2×). All overtime requires written pre-approval from the direct line manager before the shift begins.

The old way vs Knova

Most answer engines give you a wall of text. Knova gives you proof.

The old way
Senior staff interrupted to re-answer the same question
Hours lost per person, per month, hunting through folders
Work carried out against a superseded procedure
No record of what was advised, or on what basis
With Knova
Expertise stays available without the interruption
The answer in seconds, in plain language
Always grounded in the current document you control
Every answer cited and traceable after the fact
How it works

From document chaos to answers in three moves

01

Upload

Bring your PDFs, policies, manuals, and internal documentation into Knova.

02

Index

Knova turns content into a searchable knowledge layer with source references.

03

Ask

Your team gets fast answers with citations, history, and context-aware follow-ups.

Before you ask

The four questions we always get

Answered here so the first call can be about your documents instead.

What happens when it gets something wrong?

Knova answers only from the documents you give it, and every answer carries a citation to the passage it came from. If there is no supporting source, it says so rather than guessing. That means a wrong answer is visible, traceable to a specific document, and fixed by fixing the document.

Where does our data actually live?

In the EU — our infrastructure runs in Ireland, and your documents are not replicated outside it. Each organisation's documents sit in a separate, controlled environment, encrypted in transit and at rest, and your content is never used to train public models. Administrators can permanently delete any document or remove any user, and those actions are recorded in an audit log. Configurable retention periods are not built yet; tell us if you need them and we will scope it with you.

How much work is this for my team?

You supply the documents; we handle ingestion. A typical rollout runs about 30 days end to end, including access setup and user onboarding. There is no infrastructure for your team to run and nothing to install on user devices.

What does it cost?

R4,999 per month covers up to 100 users, and R24,999 covers up to 1,000 — everything included, with no per-question charges. Beyond 1,000 users we price a custom licence against your headcount. Running a smaller team? Talk to us — we can scope a package below 100 users rather than have you pay for seats you will not use. No setup fee, and no credit card to start a demo.

Ready when you are

Stop paying twice for knowledge you already own.
