Company document knowledge base and source-backed AI search

Short answer

ValueSpace can search an approved collection of company files, retrieve relevant passages and prepare an answer with visible sources. The result depends on the documents that were added and does not replace keeping policies and records current. The exact workflow depends on the connected service, available source data and permissions configured for the business.

How the workflow works

ValueSpace can search an approved collection of company files, retrieve relevant passages and prepare an answer with visible sources. The result depends on the documents that were added and does not replace keeping policies and records current.

  • Choose the documents and access scope.
  • Ask a business question in ordinary language.
  • Review the answer and cited source passages.

Business work, clearly controlled

Document search
  1. Business owner

    What notice period applies to the standard supplier agreement?

  2. ValueSpace

    The approved 2026 supplier policy states 30 calendar days. An older template in the same collection states 45 days, so I have not treated the older wording as current.

    Cited source

    supplier-policy-2026.pdf

    Section 4.2 - termination notice.

    Conflicting older source

    supplier-template-2024.docx

    Older 45-day wording retained for review.

  3. Answer grounded in approved sourcesOne superseded conflict disclosed
Conversation scenario: An answer points back to the approved company source The example answers from the authorised document set, cites the relevant policy and leaves a conflict visible.

Keep decisions and data under control

Only authorised files should enter the knowledge base. Missing or conflicting sources stay visible instead of being filled with invented facts.

What to prepare before starting

Prepare a small reviewed document set, ownership rules and questions whose correct answers are already known.
