How is sensitive data protected?

All documents are encrypted with AES-256-GCM at rest and TLS 1.3 in transit. A GDPR anonymization layer removes PII before any AI processing. Your data never leaves our SOC 2 certified infrastructure.

How long does integration take?

Less than 30 minutes. Upload documents directly, connect via OAuth for Slack, or use our REST API for bulk processing.

How does outcome tracking work?

Outcomes are detected automatically from follow-up documents, Slack messages, and web intelligence. You confirm with one click. Each reported outcome makes your future analyses more accurate.

How is Decision Intel different from ChatGPT?

ChatGPT gives one opinion from one model. Decision Intel uses 3 independent judges for noise measurement, a 20×20 bias interaction matrix for compound scoring, 31 domain-specific biases, and an outcome flywheel that gets smarter with every decision.

Decision Quality Index

Critical — 5 biases detected, 2 toxic combinations

Peloton extrapolated pandemic-era demand growth as permanent, investing $400M in a new factory and acquiring Precor for $420M. When demand normalized, they were left with massive excess inventory and capacity.

Decision context

CEO John Foley and board treated 2020-2021 subscriber growth as the new baseline rather than a pandemic anomaly. Demand forecasting models anchored on recent explosive growth. Internal finance team projections were overridden by leadership optimism.
