What is Cody AI?

Cody is an AI assistant designed to help teams manage and access business knowledge more effectively. It integrates with your existing tools and documents to create a centralised knowledge hub that employees can query in natural language. Rather than hunting through scattered files or wikis, staff can ask Cody questions and receive answers grounded in your actual company information. The tool sits between your knowledge sources and your team, learning what matters to your organisation and adapting to how people actually work. It's particularly useful for companies dealing with large volumes of internal documentation, processes, or institutional knowledge that's difficult for new hires or distributed teams to handle.
