Clarity Bank
Clarity Bank finds answers in your own documents
Clarity Bank keeps your policies, procedures, notes and old courses in one place you can search. Ask a question in plain words, and the answer shows which documents it came from.
Many learning projects start with an email asking who has the latest version. Clarity Bank takes on that hunt, so you start a draft from the source rather than from memory.
Where the content goes
Clarity Bank is saved on your computer, and its database is never sent as a whole.
Documents
PDF, Word, text files and saved web pages.
Scans and pictures
Text in PNG, JPEG, TIFF, BMP, GIF and WebP pictures is read with the text recognition built into Windows, on your own computer.
Old courses
Add course takes a SCORM zip, including one exported from Rise, so an old course becomes something you can ask about.
Online content
A streamed video or online course goes in as a link. Attach a TXT, SRT, VTT or Word transcript and it can be searched too.
01
What it does
You connect the folders you already use, and Clarity Bank reads what's in them. Originals stay where they are, in SharePoint, your learning system or a drive. Clarity Bank keeps summaries, links and the text it has read.
There's one Clarity Bank, and every project reads from it. Clarity Create, Clarity Review and Clarity Chatbot can all work from the same documents.
02
What it works with
- Folders. Connect a folder takes a folder and its subfolders, from your computer or from SharePoint once IT switches it on.
You see file names, sizes and types before anything is read, and can clear what you'd rather leave out. Connected folders are checked when the app opens and once a day after that, and a changed document is marked Source file changed.
03
What you get
Type a question and press Enter. The answer numbers each document it rests on and lists them under From. Select one to read it. Best matches, under the answer, lists other documents your words find.
Search by words works without AI, and answers need an AI key. Search by meaning, once someone sets it up, also finds related wording, such as "adverse event" when you typed "accident".
Clarity Create and Clarity Review add their work as you go, so each module's storyboard details, scores and findings sit in the bank too. To start a draft, right click a document and choose Create storyboard.
04
Where the content goes
Clarity Bank is saved on your computer, and its database is never sent as a whole. When you ask, the question and the extracts picked to answer it go to your organisation's AI provider, on your own account. Searching can also send short extracts of the top results, so the provider can rank them. Clarity Writers sees none of it.
- Write summaries with AI is off each time you add something. Tick it, and each document's text goes to your provider to write the summary.
- Search by meaning is off until someone turns it on. It sends the text of everything the bank has read, then new and changed text after that.
- SharePoint folders are read with your own Microsoft 365 sign in. Clarity Bank writes nothing to SharePoint.
05
What stays with you
You choose the folders and what goes in. If a superseded procedure and the current one are both connected, an answer may rest on either, and you decide which stands. Read the source before you use the sentence.
The bank can tell you a file changed, but not which change matters. There's also no shared team bank in this version, so colleagues don't see what you've connected.
