How is sensitive data protected?

All documents are encrypted with AES-256-GCM at rest and TLS 1.2+ in transit. A GDPR anonymization layer removes PII before any AI processing. Hosted on Vercel + Supabase (both SOC 2 Type II); Decision Intel’s own product-level audit is targeted for Q4 2026.

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 or a general AI assistant?

ChatGPT gives one opinion from one model: ungoverned, untraceable, unaudited. Decision Intel is the reasoning audit platform. Most tools audit your data; we audit your reasoning — and catch the fatal blind spots in strategic memos before the committee does. It measures the noise in your reasoning the same way Kahneman did in the insurance underwriter study, simulates an AI boardroom of CEO, CFO, and board personas, runs what-if interventions against a 143-case public reference library, and compounds every confirmed outcome back into a calibrated Decision Quality Index your audit committee can defend. Not a chatbot; a reasoning audit, checkable from memo to outcome.

For CSOs and CEOs presenting to a board

Audit a board deck before the presentation — predict the toughest questions the room will ask.

Situation

You're presenting to the board on Thursday. The deck is set; the talking points are not.

Complication

Board members are pattern-matchers. They have seen this kind of decision before — and they will ask the question you forgot to anticipate. Most of the damage in a board meeting happens in the Q&A, not the deck.

Question

What are the three hardest questions the board will ask, and how do you answer them now?

Answer

Decision Intel audits the deck, runs the boardroom simulator across 5 personas (Margaret-class CSO, Damien-class corp dev head, James-class GC, Adaeze-class PE partner, Riya-class VC associate), and surfaces predicted Q&A with verbatim suggested responses.

How it works

Upload the document

Paste the memo or drop the PDF / DOCX / spreadsheet. The 12-node R²F pipeline runs in ~60 seconds.

Review the audit

Decision Quality Index score, 22-bias R²F detection, named compound failure patterns, and verbatim evidence quotes for every finding.

Read the hardening questions

Each finding ships with an audit-committee-ready hardening question — the specific question a procurement reader would ask if they saw this memo cold.

Run the boardroom simulator

The 5-persona boardroom twin fires Q&A questions in the actual voice of each archetype — the CSO will ask about competitive positioning; the GC about indemnification; the corp dev head about valuation framework.

Export the board-grade brief

Procurement-grade 2-page brief — board-ready typography, 19-framework regulatory anchor, audit-log fingerprint. Attach to the deck as the appendix.

Why this matters

A board meeting is a high-stakes single-shot event. The presenter cannot run the audit during the meeting — only before. The boardroom simulator is the dress rehearsal: every persona-voiced question that fires in the simulator is a question that does not surprise you in the room.

FAQ

How realistic are the simulator personas?

The 5 boardroom personas are calibrated against verbatim quotes from real M&A Science podcast episodes, Sequoia / a16z partner letters, and Bessemer GP behaviour. The simulator does not produce generic SaaS questions — it produces the specific question the archetype has asked variants of for two decades.

Can I add a custom persona for my actual board members?

Yes, on the Team tier. Add a custom persona profile (background, sector, prior decisions, known pet topics) and the simulator weights its Q&A questions to that profile. The simulator's structure is open — it isn't tied to the canonical 5.

Does the brief render in PowerPoint?

The board-grade brief is a 2-page PDF. The DPR cover (hash + methodology + regulatory anchor) renders on page 1; the predicted Q&A renders on page 2. You attach it to the deck as the appendix — most board chairs prefer the appendix attached to the deck PDF rather than slides embedded inside the speaker's flow.
