Gathering I — Method

Cognoir reads each document by its actual structure.

A 10-K is not the same shape as a Quranic surah. A clinical paper is not the same shape as a Supreme Court decision. Cognoir parses each by what it is — and cites it the way scholars in that field already cite it.

  1. Choose your specialism.

    Cognoir tunes parsing, retrieval, and citation format for your discipline.

  2. Deposit your library.

    PDFs, Word, slides, spreadsheets, images, web pages, and video transcripts. Up to 50 MB per file.

  3. Ask in plain language.

    Answers stream back with structural citations — page for books, ayah and surah for Quran, paragraph and jurisdiction for case law, timestamp for video.

Gathering II — Hands

Built for fields where citations matter.

Pick your specialism when you sign up. Cognoir adjusts what it parses, how it retrieves, and what a citation looks like.

Rubric

Academic and research

Cited to the section and page — across your whole library at once.

Mitochondrial density rose 14% in the trained cohort [§3.2, p.418]

Academic papers · medical literature · technical writing · educational materials · books · news · general

Bister

Legal and compliance

Every citation carries its jurisdiction — and conflicts come back side by side.

Notice is effective on receipt, not dispatch [¶17, 2d Cir.]

Case law · statutes · regulations · contracts · government documents · financial filings · technical compliance · general

Lapis

Islamic scholarship

Hadith, Quran, and tafsir — each cited the way the field already cites it.

The obligation is tied to intention before the act [2:185]

Quran · Hadith · Tafsir · Fiqh · religious texts · books · general

Gathering III — Compilation

When one answer isn’t the whole picture.

A question returns the passage that answers it. A report goes wider — Cognoir surveys the whole library, plans an outline, and writes each section from your sources, with every claim carrying the citation it came from.

Delivered as a working document: a sticky table of contents, sections you can read top to bottom, and a numbered References list. Printable, and grounded only in what you uploaded.

Renewal exposure across the 2025 portfolio

Eleven of nineteen agreements auto-renew absent notice [1]. Three carry notice windows shorter than the operational lead time recorded in the board minutes [4], and two conflict on the definition of receipt [7].

Gathering IV — Apparatus

Answers you can check. A library your tools can reach.

    Claude Code and other MCP clients can search your knowledge bases with API keys you control.

Gathering V — Charter

How Cognoir treats your data.

Full security details

  1. Citations can't be invented.

    Every citation points at a real passage of your own documents — verify it against the source in two clicks. If nothing in your library answers the question, Cognoir says so instead of guessing.

  2. Your documents are not used to train AI models.

    Not ours, not anyone else's. Workspaces are isolated per customer.

  3. Delete is delete.

    Removed from storage and the search index — no soft deletes, no shadow copies.

Questions, answered plainly.

What happens when my library doesn't contain the answer?
Cognoir says so. It will not fill the gap from general knowledge.
Which file types can I upload?
Fourteen formats: PDFs, Word, slides, spreadsheets, images, web pages, and video transcripts among them. Up to 50 MB per file.
Can my own tools query the library?
Yes. Claude Code and other MCP clients can search your knowledge bases with API keys you issue and revoke.
What if I exceed my monthly questions?
Buy a one-time question pack. A heavy month doesn't force a plan change.

Try Cognoir with your own documents.

Upload a brief, a chapter, or a paper. Ask three questions. Decide for yourself whether the citations hold up.
