CorpusIQ vs Funnel.io: What Each One Does¶
Funnel.io centralizes marketing data into a warehouse. CorpusIQ is the layer that gives AI assistants live access to business data with validation and citations, no warehouse required.
Quick comparison¶
| Capability | Standalone | CorpusIQ |
|---|---|---|
| Primary job | marketing data collection and warehousing | Cross-source business answers in ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity |
| Data access | Its own data | Your live business tools via read-only OAuth |
| AI surface | One assistant | Any AI you already use, via MCP |
| Answer format | Native reports | Source-cited plain-English answers |
| Data stored | Your records | Live retrieval, scoped retention, no raw customer files or full payloads |
When to use it alone¶
It is the right system for its job. If that is your only need, it is the answer.
When to add CorpusIQ¶
The pain starts when the warehouse is a project, not an answer. Funnel builds the pipe. CorpusIQ answers the question from live sources while the warehouse can still run underneath.
CorpusIQ connects to those systems and exposes all of them to ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity. ask "what is true ROAS across all channels" and get one cited answer from live connectors.
