ElectronicsHow it works
Your expert explains it once. Kniff turns it into a document that the expert reviews and approves. From then on, colleagues ask Kniff instead of them.
Use cases
Capture what your most experienced people know before their last day at work.
New colleagues find answers themselves instead of taking every question to the same person.
Structured handovers instead of a file nobody can find two weeks later.
The knowledge you only need in an emergency, and then right away.
Security
Every company gets its own Kniff environment. No database shared with other customers.
Documents, recordings and the knowledge base are stored on servers in the European Union.
Knowledge spaces per team or department. Who may see what also applies to search.
Only what the expert has reviewed goes into answers. Deletion is possible at any time, and permanent.
Kniff suggests, the expert approves. No guide reaches colleagues without review.
Every answer shows where it comes from: the passage in the text or the right second in the video. Anything not in the reviewed knowledge is not made up.
Before the pilot, we agree with you and your data protection officer which data goes where.
Pilot
We are looking for pilot companies. Together we pick a process that depends on one person, agree up front how we measure success, and capture the knowledge in four weeks.
