Use cases

What teams actually do with the Readwise Reader integration

Grounded Q&A from Readwise Reader

Employees ask "how do we handle X?" — BeforeQuery answers from the exact Readwise Reader page that documents it, with a link to the source. Faster than opening Readwise Reader and searching manually; more accurate than a stale mental model.

Content freshness monitoring

BeforeQuery flags Readwise Reader pages that answer FAQs but haven't been touched in > 6 months, or that contradict other pages, or that get low click-through from search. Docs team gets a triage list, not a "everything is stale" panic.

Meeting notes to Readwise Reader

From a transcript or meeting recording, BeforeQuery drafts structured notes (decisions, action items, follow-ups) and files them into the right Readwise Reader space with correct tags + attendees. Author confirms, publishes.

Answer questions grounded in Readwise Reader

Employees and customers ask Readwise Reader-related questions in Slack, Teams, or the widget — BeforeQuery answers with the exact Readwise Reader record shown alongside the response. No context switching, no "log into Knowledge / Intranet to check" round-trips.

Readwise Reader — Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about connecting BeforeQuery to Readwise Reader.

Yes. Retrieval respects the asking user's Readwise Reader permissions; users only see answers from pages they can already open. Permission changes propagate on next sync (typically < 5 min).
Standard OAuth 2.0 where Readwise Reader supports it, otherwise API-key or bearer-token auth. Credentials are stored encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM) per workspace, never shared across customers, and rotated on request. The connection is scoped to the least-privilege set of scopes each playbook needs — you approve the scope list on install.
No. Your Readwise Reader data feeds only your workspace's own agents and answers. Nothing is used to train a shared model, and nothing crosses workspace boundaries. Bring-your-own-model is available on Enterprise if you want to pin inference to your own OpenAI / Anthropic / self-hosted deployment.
Yes. Every Readwise Reader integration is scoped at install time — you pick which resources, users, or record types are visible. You can further restrict per-playbook: a single playbook only touches the specific Readwise Reader objects it needs. Scope changes take effect on the next sync.
Every write is logged with the acting user, the playbook that fired it, the exact operation, the target entity IDs, and the timestamp — all in the immutable audit log. Writes are rehearsable in simulation mode against a copy of live data before they touch Readwise Reader for real.
