An assistant that already knows your business.

IB keeps your goals, notes, records and decisions in one memory that you can read and change. The assistant uses it every time you ask, in the web app and in a side panel beside your email in Chrome.

In Chrome, you ask from the side panel beside an email, and the draft waits for you to review it. Example screens, made-up data.
Text description of this animation

Silent, 14 seconds, repeating. An email from Maya Chen asks for a quote for a grazing lunch with coffee for about 40 people on 28 November. Beside it, the Chrome side panel for an assistant called Ivy is asked to draft a reply to Maya with a quote.

A line joins the business memory (price list, past quotes, delivery area) to the answer. Ivy replies that it has drafted a reply, about $960 plus delivery from the price list, marks the recipient as new, and shows a Review and send link. Nothing is sent until the person presses Send.

The problem

To run a business well you need several single-purpose subscriptions, and they don't share one knowledge base or memory of your business.

The solution

IB brings them together on one memory.

Your assistant, notes, goals and records share one business memory, so each part already knows what the others know.

Separate tools join onto one memory. Example screens, made-up data.

Silent, 12 seconds, repeating. Four separate tools are shown: CRM, Accounts, Goals and HR. Each has its own copy of the business memory, under the caption "Several single-purpose tools. Each keeps its own memory of your business."

Orange lines then join all four onto one memory, under the caption "IB brings them together on one memory. Each part already knows what the others know." Each tool then shows where it stands today: CRM and HR are being built, Accounts runs alongside IB at AdventureWorks, and Goals is working now.

Three steps

How it works

Example screens, made-up data.
Text description of this animation

Silent, 13 seconds, plays once. A new goal is typed in plain words: answer every catering enquiry within a day. A line carries it into the business memory. A new note follows: the flour supplier needs orders in by 2pm Thursday. It joins the memory the same way.

Silent, 14 seconds, plays once. Beside a flour supplier’s price list, the person asks Ivy in the side panel how much strong white flour is and when it would arrive. The price row is highlighted and a line carries it to the answer: $41.50 for 25 kg excluding GST, orders before 2pm Thursday arrive the following Tuesday, minimum four bags. The source shown is the page.

Silent, 14 seconds, plays once. A drafted reply to Maya Chen waits, with a Send button and an Edit button. A label says the recipient is new. The person presses Send and the reply is marked Sent and saved in the memory. The caption reads: it asks before it sends, pays or submits.

The Chrome extension

It sits beside your email and any web page.

Open the side panel to ask about what you are looking at, or send selected text to your assistant.

Selected text goes straight to your assistant. Example screens, made-up data.

Silent, 13 seconds, repeating. On a flour supplier’s price list, a sentence about delivery (orders before 2pm Thursday arrive the following Tuesday) is selected and a Send to Ivy button appears. A line carries the selection to the Chrome side panel.

Ivy answers that the line says orders before 2pm Thursday arrive the following Tuesday, that it matches the person’s note, and so the Thursday cut-off still holds. The source shown is the person’s own note about the flour supplier.

Why IB is different

Straight answers

Will it send things without asking?
No. It asks before anything is sent, paid or submitted.
Can I see what it knows about my business?
Yes. Every item in the memory can be opened, changed or deleted.
Is my business kept separate from others?
Yes. Each business has its own database and its own assistant.
Where is my data held?
On servers we run. Today the server is in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and the AI that answers is provided by Anthropic. We will tell you the details before you sign up.
Can I sign up today?
Not yet. We are running a small paid pilot with a few businesses. Tell us about yours and we will tell you when it opens.
What does it cost?
We have not set prices. Pilot businesses will pay from the start, and we will say what the price is before anyone signs.
