Alida AI helps users query, visualize, summarize, and share insights, and identify trends and opportunities. Analytics include an AI reporting assistant, trend and behavior analysis, automated text and video analysis, and a centralized data repository. Integrations include Salesforce, Adobe Experience Cloud, Tableau, Zendesk, Okta, Qualtrics, Slack, and Google Forms; custom connectors can link insights with operational data. The platform runs on Android, iOS, web, and API. Alida lists encryption, regular audits, and compliance with SOC 2, GDPR, CCPA, and HIPAA, alongside privacy controls including double opt-in. Pricing is on request.

Orchetta is a web and API product for organizing customer journeys, linking customer evidence to work, and measuring whether that work improves a journey. Journeys are arranged into stages and steps, with work attached to the step it serves. Evidence cards can hold customer quotes and feedback, and teams can define custom objects such as findings or hypotheses. Cycles time-box work; roadmaps put cycles, journeys, and cards on a calendar with real dates. AI agents can run briefs manually or on daily, weekly, or monthly schedules, then stage proposed changes for review. The product includes eight AI skills and can compose written reports or slide decks from workspace content. Named integrations include Stripe, PostHog, Power BI, Power BI service principal, Jira, and Figma. An outside assistant can access the map over MCP with a user-issued, revocable API token. Starter costs $45 a month per editor, and a 7-day trial is available. The privacy policy says workspace databases and uploaded images are stored in AWS Canada Central in Montréal.
