What your team knows.
Ready for whoever’s next.

Turn everyday documents and conversations into clear answers your whole team can use.

From what your team knows
to what to do next.

  1. 1

    Share what you know

    Add guides, meeting notes, or useful tips. A manager checks them before sharing.

  2. 2

    Ask a question

    Ask how something is done. Crux looks through your team’s approved knowledge.

  3. 3

    See where it came from

    Read the answer and the original source. Flag anything that needs fixing.

When the work changes, a manager updates the guide. Everyone learns from it.

What one person knows
can help the whole team.

Keep useful knowledge moving across role handoffs, written processes, and everyday decisions. The next person can find an answer and see exactly where it came from.

Client handoff walkthrough

Meeting transcript · Mira Chen, delivery manager

Before you take time off, make sure the next person has more than a list of links.

Document the next deliverable, deadline, and anything waiting on the client.

Have your backup confirm ownership and the requirements, then get the delivery lead’s approval before the handoff is complete.

Passage cited in the answer

The goal is for the next person to know what happens next, and who is responsible.

LOLena asks

How do I hand off a client
before taking time off?

Crux

Give your backup a clear picture of the work, then get the handoff confirmed and approved.

  1. Document the next deliverable, deadline, and client dependencies.
  2. Have the backup confirm ownership and requirements.
  3. Get the delivery lead’s approval to complete the handoff.

Every useful answer should give you somewhere to look.

A clear path from
“someone knows this”
to “here’s how.”

Your team decides what belongs in its knowledge. Crux makes it available in the moment someone needs it.

  1. Captured

    Add a work guide, handbook, instructions for covering a teammate, or notes about a decision. Conversation transcripts can join the same knowledge library.

    TXT, VTT, SRT, Markdown
  2. Approved

    A manager reviews the text, redactions, and audience. Only approved sources become available to the company workspace.

    A deliberate step before sharing
  3. Answered

    Teammates ask in their own words, read the supporting passages, and flag anything that needs a closer look.

    An answer with its evidence
  4. Improved

    A missing or outdated answer gets an owner. A manager revises the source, and the next person works from better guidance.

    Current knowledge, preserved history

A correction remains beside the original answer. Approve an updated source to improve what Crux can use in future answers.

Start with the question
that keeps coming back.

Bring a real onboarding or handoff workflow, its written processes and notes, and the teammates who need to learn it.

A pilot starts with one invited company, a manager who knows the work, and a small set of approved documents, notes, or transcripts. Agree on the questions to test, then look at answer quality, repeat interruptions, and the effort it takes to keep the knowledge useful.

Talk to your company’s pilot organizer to agree on the scope and get an invitation.

Before you begin.

What do we need to connect?

Start with written knowledge or conversation transcripts you can upload or paste. Markdown and TXT work for step-by-step instructions, handbooks, decision notes, and role handoffs; VTT and SRT preserve transcript timestamps. Files are added manually. PDF, DOCX, and connected Drive or Slack imports are not supported.

Who can see the knowledge and questions?

The workspace serves one company and its invited members. Approved sources are available to everyone in that workspace; drafts are visible to managers. Managers can review employee questions and answers, so the chat is not private from your company.

What if an answer is wrong?

Employees can flag an answer. A manager can review it or add a correction beside the original. An updated, approved source makes the correction available to future answers. Citations make evidence easier to check; they do not guarantee an answer is correct.

How should we handle sensitive material?

Only add information your company is authorized to share with everyone in the workspace. Basic automated redaction can miss personal and confidential details, so a manager must review the content. Agree on hosting, retention, and model-provider requirements before using sensitive material.
