Your Community as Your AI Knowledge Layer

Enterprises have a knowledge problem. Expertise lives in people's heads or disappears into Slack threads nobody can find, and new hires ask questions that veterans answered three years ago. When someone leaves, what they knew leaves with them. AI tools, meanwhile, have nothing useful to work with, so they guess. The cost is real: wasted time, repeated mistakes, slow onboarding, and no control over how your organization shows up in AI search.

You know when you read something, and you can’t stop thinking about it. It’s not just an interesting idea or a good idea, but one that has come at exactly the right moment. Thanks @mae - this has unlocked a way forward for a piece of work I’m banging my head against. :grinning_face:
