Operational AI for real-world businesses
Bob helps teams find what is true across the systems they already use: documents, spreadsheets, email, finance records, shared drives and the knowledge sitting between them.
Start DiscoveryNot Another AI Bollocks
Bob is here to make operations clearer. It should show its working, separate fact from inference, and help people make better decisions without pretending the machine is in charge.
Connectors and capabilities can grow without turning the product into a monolith.
People see the operational truth that fits their permissions, responsibilities and context.
Sources, confidence and reasoning stay visible so users can trust, challenge or correct Bob.
Discovery Mode
Discovery Mode is the calm first step: map systems, surface knowledge sources and identify operational gaps before indexing, automation or deeper platform work.
Bob in Discovery Mode
A simple V1 demo of how Bob starts carefully: connect, observe, and wait for human approval before learning from any source.
A fictional operations connector is installed with read-only discovery permissions.
No indexing yetBob detects candidate sources such as shared drives, finance records, mailboxes and spreadsheets.
Provenance visibleA person reviews the synthetic discovery list and chooses which sources are trusted.
Customer controlledAsk Bob
Bob answers from approved operational sources, separates facts from assumptions, and shows when a person should review the result.
Facts: The signed agreement is in SharePoint. An Outlook thread asks for a purchase order number. Sage shows the account on finance hold.
Reasoning: The installation appears blocked because the PO number has not been supplied and finance has not released the account.
Assumption: The latest email thread is the active blocker. Ask operations to confirm before updating the customer.
Facts: The newest approved file is stored in the Sales Operations SharePoint site and was linked from the CRM pricing note.
Reasoning: It has the latest modified date and matches the approved naming pattern used by the commercial team.
Assumption: No assumption needed, but older copies should remain read-only to avoid confusion.
Facts: The CRM renewal view lists eight accounts this month. A spreadsheet maintained by account managers lists nine.
Reasoning: One customer appears in the spreadsheet but not the CRM view, so the renewal list is not fully aligned.
Assumption: The spreadsheet may include an informal renewal extension. Sales should approve the final list.
Facts: Sage records the invoice as rejected. Outlook contains a supplier email requesting a corrected billing address. The contract PDF shows the older address.
Reasoning: The rejection is likely due to an address mismatch between the invoice and supplier records.
Assumption: The supplier email is the rejection reason. Finance should confirm before reissuing.
Bob explains the mess
A static answer built from the synthetic BLLB LTD demo data. Bob shows the operational trail before suggesting what to do next.
The install appears blocked because the PO number has not been supplied. There may also be a duplicate CRM record that should be reviewed before proceeding.
Rows CUST-1001 and CUST-1005 show ABC Ltd / ABC Limited with matching Leeds details and duplicate-risk notes.
Needs reviewINS-2401 is blocked, high priority, has no owner and notes: "No PO; finance hold".
ConfirmedFinance and sales emails state that ABC Ltd cannot be released until the PO is issued.
LikelyINV-9104 is on hold with the note: "No PO reference on invoice".
