# Welcome to Cromo

> Turn business context into trusted knowledge, structured data, dashboards, and repeatable workflows.

Cromo is a chat-first workspace for turning the way your team works into an operational system. You can begin with a question or outcome in plain language, then preserve what matters as shared knowledge, structured data, a dashboard, a reusable skill, or a workflow.

You do not need to model the whole business before you start. Add the context for one real process, use it with your team, and make the system more formal when the work becomes repeatable.

## The Cromo model

Cromo keeps three kinds of information connected:

| Layer         | What it contains                                                     | Use it when                                                            |
| ------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Sources**   | Original files, synced content, and material taught in chat          | You need evidence, provenance, or the full source                      |
| **Knowledge** | Human-readable pages for concepts, policies, entities, and processes | People need an answer they can browse, review, and improve             |
| **Data**      | Models, tables, records, and team files                              | Information changes often or needs filtering, reporting, or automation |

Chat works across these layers. Dashboards make the current state visible. Process Skills preserve reusable instructions. Workflows execute repeatable processes and keep a run history.

<Info>
  Sources, Knowledge, and Data are complementary. A policy PDF can remain as evidence, become a concise Knowledge page, and define fields used in a structured compliance table.

## How work moves through Cromo

<Steps>
  <Step title="Bring in context">
    Upload documents, connect an application, or teach Cromo directly in chat.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Review what Cromo learned">
    Inspect generated Knowledge pages, check their source references, and approve or improve proposed changes.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Use the context in chat">
    Ask sourced questions, draft deliverables, or describe the operational outcome you need.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Make repeated work durable">
    Add a data model and table, publish a dashboard, create a Process Skill, or compile the process into a workflow.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Monitor and improve">
    Review dashboard state, workflow runs, failures, and changes to the underlying knowledge.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Where work lives

Everyday work lives in a **Project**. A Project keeps its conversations, Sources, Knowledge, Data, Dashboards, Skills, Workflows, integrations, and members together.

Projects belong to a **Workspace**, the organization-level home where roles and access are managed.

<Warning>
  Cromo helps your team organize and execute work, but important answers and automated actions still need appropriate human review. Check citations, permissions, inputs, and outputs before relying on them for a business-critical decision.
