A plan for change looks clear in the meeting where it is agreed. Then each team acts on its own version of it, and the leader finds out it has drifted weeks later, from a report someone put together by hand. Empowered Intelligence is software by Empowered House that tracks how a planned change actually plays out: what people say and do, what the numbers show, and where actions pull in different directions.
In 2026, a major decision in a UK mid-market company takes 4.7 weeks on average, and nearly 70% of leaders face frequent delays in major decisions¹. In the same year, 87% of knowledge workers said that with everyone busy executing, they often lack the time or capacity to coordinate². Plans rarely fail in 1 meeting; they drift between meetings.
What is Empowered Intelligence?
Empowered Intelligence helps leaders sense how their organisation is changing, improve the quality of their decisions and keep teams aligned. It tracks change over time. It sets up questions to watch, often proposing them itself, for example whether a new sales process is being followed. It links each question to claims taken from your records: meetings, documents, the CRM. Next to those claims it puts hard metrics from your company's data. Together they show whether a change is going to plan and whether the actions of different teams support each other or pull apart.
Asking questions and getting answers with a source is part of the product, but it is a means. The point is to see early whether the company is moving the way you decided it should.
What does a leader get from Empowered Intelligence?
- You see whether a change is working while there is still time to act. Open a question about a change, for example a new step in your sales process, and every night new evidence lands as for, against or neutral. You judge the result; a person opens and closes each question.
- You see where teams pull in different directions. What people say in meetings and write in documents sits next to the numbers, so a gap between the plan and the work shows up as evidence, not as a feeling.
- You stop chasing 3 people for 3 pieces of the same story. The picture comes to you overnight, already put together.
- You walk into the review with the evidence in hand, with the source behind a finding 1 step away.
- Changes wait for your yes by default. Every change the assistant suggests, such as a new metric or a page correction, is shown to a person first.
How is it different from a document chatbot or a BI dashboard?
- A document chatbot searches files and answers the question you typed. Empowered Intelligence keeps watching the questions that matter to a change, night after night, and adds the numbers.
- A BI dashboard shows the numbers someone decided to chart. Empowered Intelligence puts next to them what is happening in meetings, documents and the CRM, so you see why a number moves.
What does Empowered Intelligence read today?
Live today, it connects to 6 tools and to the Excel or CSV files you send:
| Tool | What it brings in |
|---|---|
| Roam | meetings: title, host, time, participants, summary, action items and the full transcript with speaker names |
| Notion | pages edited in the last 365 days; comments are not read |
| Airtable | the tables or views connected from 1 base; comments and attachment contents are not read |
| Attio | objects, records, lists and their entries, and notes |
| Recruitee | roles, candidates, notes, evaluations and the hiring pipeline; restricted notes are not read |
| Google Meet | meetings held in Google Meet |
| Excel and CSV files | the files you send us; we connect them for you |
All of them are read-only: Empowered Intelligence never writes back to your tools. Figures are read from your company's own data where they already sit.
Your company runs on something else? Google Drive, Docs and Sheets, Microsoft 365, your ERP or CRM: tell us, and we will say what it takes to connect it. Tell us which tools you use and we will tell you what Empowered Intelligence can read on day 1.
How long until the first results?
Onboarding starts with a chat interview in which an owner describes the company. After sources are connected, the first picture of the company is usually ready the next day, after the nightly sync. From then on, it updates every night, and you add the metrics, processes and questions you want to watch.
How can you check where a finding comes from?
An answer from the wiki can be traced in 3 steps: the page, the claim, the record.
- The record. What arrives from a tool, such as a meeting or a page, is copied from the tool, turned into a readable document, and never edited by a model.
- The claim. From each record, a model extracts short claims: 1 sentence about 1 matter, with a pointer to the record it came from.
- The page. The company wiki is written from claims, and its passages link to the claims behind them.
When you ask the assistant a question, it answers from the wiki and names the page. Ask "how do you know?" and it shows the claims under that page. It is built to say when the wiki does not cover something and to name the area that would own it.
A trail is not the same as a check of truth. The automatic checks prove structure, not truth: they confirm that every cited claim exists, not that the sentence says exactly what its claims say. A person stays responsible for checking a decision that matters.
Who can see the data?
- Connections to your tools are read-only, and each organisation's data is kept separate from every other.
- Model providers process content to extract claims and answer questions.
- Your numbers stay where they are. Empowered Intelligence only reads them and never writes there. Access to the numbers follows each person's role; the company wiki is shared across the organisation.
- By default, every change the assistant makes, such as a new metric or a page correction, is shown to a person for approval first. A person can turn this off for a conversation.
What Empowered Intelligence will not do
- Write to your company's systems.
- Decide for you: you judge the evidence, and a person opens and closes every question.
- Change your systems, metrics or questions without a person's instruction.
- Need a dashboard or a model of the company that someone keeps up by hand.
It also has limits. A claim points to a whole document, such as a meeting, not to 1 sentence inside it. When a person corrects a page, the correction becomes a record and a claim of its own, so the trail stays complete.
What does this look like in a wholesale or manufacturing company?
The examples below are illustrative, not client cases. Your ERP already holds the numbers. Empowered Intelligence puts them next to what people say and decide, so you see why a number moves.
- A steel wholesaler sets a new minimum margin. The board changes the discount rules and watches 1 question: "Are branches selling at the new minimum margin?" Empowered Intelligence reads the sales export from your ERP, sent as Excel or CSV and connected by us, next to the reps' notes in the CRM. After 2 weeks the board sees which branches follow the policy and what reps say when they do not, instead of finding out from the monthly report.
- Branches keep their own spreadsheets. Each branch runs its own Excel file. Empowered Intelligence puts the exports in 1 picture next to what was said in meetings, and you can see where each number comes from.
- A manufacturer adds a step to production planning. Planned against actual output from an Excel export sits next to meeting transcripts from Roam or Google Meet, so you see whether planners use the new step and what gets in their way.
Who is it for?
Empowered Intelligence is built for leaders who run change in a company and need to know whether it is landing: owners, managing directors and heads of operations. It suits companies whose work lives in meetings, documents, a CRM and spreadsheets. If your company runs on an ERP and spreadsheets, you can start with Excel or CSV exports: we connect them for you. The integrations page shows which sources are live today.
