Concept & positioning

What is BeforeQuery?

TL;DR
BeforeQuery is an agent platform grounded in your knowledge and your context. It answers employee and customer questions, runs playbooks across your systems, and shows the source paragraph plus the entity path that justified every action.

BeforeQuery is two foundations and three surfaces on one platform.

The two foundations are Knowledge Studio — the retrieval + answer-quality layer over your docs, runbooks, policies and tickets — and the Context Graph — the live entity + relation view of your users, devices, licences, groups, apps and access rules. Every answer draws from both.

The three surfaces are the Assistant (chat across Slack, Teams, Discord, Zendesk, Intercom, widget and MCP), Playbooks (135 pre-built workflows plus a natural-language editor), and Approvals & Audit (a queue for human sign-off and an immutable log).

Where competitors ship one or the other, BeforeQuery unifies them: the agent pulls entity context from the Graph to know who and what, pulls documentary context from the Knowledge Studio to know how and why, and shows both in a single trace.
