What is CorpusIQ?¶
Every business runs on twelve to twenty SaaS tools. Shopify for the store. QuickBooks for the books. Google Ads and Meta Ads for the spend. HubSpot for the pipeline. Klaviyo for email. GA4 for traffic. Slack for everything else.
None of them talk to each other.
So when you ask the simple question — "how is my business doing?" — there's no single place to look. You log into Shopify. Then QuickBooks. Then the ad accounts. Then HubSpot. You screenshot a chart from each, paste them into a doc, and try to draw a conclusion. It takes hours. You do it once a quarter. The rest of the time you're flying on instinct.
CorpusIQ fixes that.
What it is¶
CorpusIQ connects to all your business tools (31 connectors today, more every month) and puts an AI agent on top of them. You ask the agent a question in plain English, in Claude or ChatGPT, and it figures out which systems to query, runs the queries, and gives you the answer.
You don't pick the connectors. You don't write the queries. You don't stitch anything together. You ask. It answers.
The three pieces¶
Connectors. One-way, read-only links to your SaaS tools. You authenticate each one once via OAuth (the same flow you've used a hundred times — "Sign in with Google" and the like). CorpusIQ then reads your data when you ask a question. It never writes back to your tools.
Skills engine. When you ask a complex question, CorpusIQ doesn't blindly query everything. It routes your question to a skill — an opinionated procedure that knows which connectors to hit, in what order, and how to present the answer. The same question always runs the same play. Results are predictable.
The AI agent. You talk to CorpusIQ through Claude Desktop or ChatGPT (custom GPT). The agent uses CorpusIQ's tools to fetch data, runs the skills, and writes the answer in your chat. You can ask follow-ups.
What it's not¶
It's not a dashboard. There's no UI to click around in. You ask questions; you get answers.
It's not a replicated source-data warehouse. CorpusIQ queries your tools live when you ask, does not retain raw customer files or full connector response payloads, and keeps operational logs under the published retention schedule.
It's not a replacement for your SaaS tools. Shopify is still the source of truth for orders. QuickBooks is still the source of truth for books. CorpusIQ just reads them.
Who it's for¶
Founders, operators, and finance leads who already use ten or more SaaS tools and are tired of the screenshot routine. If your business runs on five spreadsheets and one tool, you don't need CorpusIQ yet.
