Knowledge graph

Every person, deal, document and asset, connected to the rest.

A company's records usually live in a CRM, a few spreadsheets, a drive full of PDFs and a handful of exports nobody remembers making. Foundry reads all of them into one graph. A contact is linked to the deals they sit on, the invoices raised for them, the documents that mention them and the people who have worked with them, and you can open any of those links from the record in front of you.

One connected graph

Each record is a node. Each link between records is stored, labelled and searchable.

Explore by following links

Open a contact and see who they work with, what they bought, and which documents name them. The graph view lays a company out with positions computed ahead of time, so it opens ready rather than settling in front of you.

A full profile for every entity

Every node has a page with its properties, its connections, its comments from teammates and its history. Where a record came from is kept, so a figure can be traced back to the file or CRM table it started in.

A timeline of what changed

Records carry dates, so the timeline shows what was created and updated in order. Saved views keep a filter and a layout you use often one click away.

Bring your files in

Upload it, check the mapping, approve it. Not before.

Nineteen file types

CSV, TSV, Excel, JSON, XML, Word, PDF, plain text, Markdown, images, and the map formats GeoJSON, KML and GPX. Files can also be pulled from the company's drive.

You approve the mapping

The system proposes which columns become which properties and which rows should link to existing records. You can change the mapping, add connections, approve or reject the whole import, and the result is recorded in the chain of imports.

Routing that reads the content

A file does not need to be sorted first. Foundry looks at what the data describes and suggests the record type it belongs to, with the suggestion shown to you to accept or correct.

It already knows the CRM

For companies on DENDAT CRM the graph fills itself.

Ask in plain language

Questions are answered from the records in the graph.

Natural language search

Type a question the way you would say it. Foundry turns it into a query over the graph and keeps a history of what was asked, so a good question can be asked again.

Written insights

Foundry reads the shape of a company's graph, such as which records are most connected and which sit alone, and writes up what it sees as a short list of things worth acting on.

Relationship suggestions

When two records probably belong together, Foundry says so and shows why. A person confirms each one before the link is created.

Keep watch

The graph stays tidy because something is checking it.

Duplicates

A scan finds records that look like the same thing entered twice. Review the pair, then merge them into one.

Anomalies

Records that break the pattern of the rest are listed for a person to look at: important records with no links, small clusters cut off from the main graph, unusually over-connected records and repeated links between the same two records.

Snapshots and diffs

Save the state of the graph, and later compare two snapshots to see exactly what was added, removed or changed between them.

Watchlist and alerts

Follow the entities that matter. When one of them changes, an alert appears in the notification list.

Reports and exports

Summaries of the graph are available as reports, and the data can be exported as CSV or JSON.

A recycle bin

Records that are removed go to the recycle bin first, so a wrong deletion can be undone.

Who it is for

Foundry is a working tool for people who answer questions with company data.

Operations and analysts

People who are asked "how are these connected?" and currently answer it by opening four tabs.

  • Trace a customer across deals, invoices and documents
  • Clean up duplicates and orphaned records
  • Compare the graph before and after a change

Owners and managers

People who want one place to look at the whole business, with each figure traceable to where it came from.

  • See which records are most connected to everything else
  • Read a written summary of what needs attention
  • Export a report without asking someone to build it
