The Automated Discovery Platform for Consulting Teams

Deliver every client engagement on discovery you can defend.

ClearWork turns documents, recordings, and AI-led stakeholder interviews into validated client knowledge — then generates process maps, requirements docs, BRDs, RTMs, SOPs, and user stories, with every line traceable to its source.

✓ Faster, defensible discovery✓ Every output source-linked✓ Repeatable across engagements✓ Margin-protecting

A missed requirement becomes a scope dispute. A missed process step becomes a failed go-live. ClearWork makes sure neither one slips — and proves where every line of the deliverable came from.

Deliverables you can defend

Outputs your clients can challenge — and you can defend.

The one thing a diagramming tool, a doc generator, or a generic AI prompt can't promise you on a client engagement: every line in every deliverable linked to the SME interview, recording, or document where it came from.

Every output linked to its source

Click any line of a process map, requirement, SOP, or roadmap to see the interview moment, recording timestamp, or document section it came from.

Nothing enters without you confirming it

New information is proposed as a change. Your team reviews and approves before it joins the trusted client base. No silent overwrites.

Outputs flag themselves when sources change

When discovery shifts mid-engagement, any deliverable built from changed sources is flagged out of sync — with one-click regeneration.

For consulting teams

Faster discovery. Defensible deliverables. Better margins.

The discovery efficiency you'd expect from automation — with the evidence trail you need to defend the work product.

50%+

Less manual discovery

Cut interview, transcription, and synthesis hours through async AI-led capture and gap detection.

Every line

Sourced to evidence

Every requirement, process step, and decision in your deliverables links back to the SME interview or document it came from.

A day in the life

Two consulting jobs. One platform.

Whether you're advising the client on what to do or implementing it for them, ClearWork shapes around the engagement — not the other way around.

Advisory engagement

Operating model assessment · $400M professional services firm · planned 6-week sprint compressed to 3 weeks · 12 stakeholders, 4 functional areas.

1

The setupDay 1 of a six-week diagnostic.

The executive committee wants a current-state read and a recommendation they can act on. Twelve stakeholders. Two business units. A stack of prior strategy decks nobody has read in eighteen months. The fear: missing the nuance that turns a credible recommendation into one a partner can poke holes in.

Planned vs ClearWork

Week 1Augment live discovery with asynchronous AI interviews.

Your team still leads the live discovery sessions, but ClearWork expands the reach between meetings. Send AI interview links by email to all twelve stakeholders, including the people who would never make the workshop. They can respond by voice or text, attach context, or share their screen for a complete day-in-the-life walkthrough. ClearWork captures the tribal knowledge, analyzes it, and cross-references it against the client knowledge base so the next live session is sharper and the final output is stronger.

Mid-engagementSynthesize the nuance, not just the headlines.

ClearWork organizes every interview, document, and recording into connected pages — by stakeholder, by process area, by decision point. When stakeholders conflict, the page shows both views with sources. When a process step appears in three interviews with three exception paths, all three are surfaced.

The deliverable momentGenerate the diagnosis from validated truth.

Generate the current-state assessment, gap analysis, and executive presentation from the same validated dataset. Every recommendation traces back to the SME interview that surfaced it. When the CFO challenges a finding in the readout, you click the line and show the evidence.

5

The payoffSix-week diagnosis delivered in three.

A recommendation the executive team can't poke holes in — because every claim has a source. And a living knowledge base the implementation partner can pick up from, instead of starting over from a static deck.

1

The setupDay 4 of an ERP implementation kickoff.

Discovery is designed to run for five weeks before design starts. Eighteen process areas across four entities. The last engagement like this still found scope misses in UAT. The fear: starting the build on shallow discovery and unreliable requirements.

Week 1Use async AI interviews to deepen live discovery.

Your consultants still run the live discovery workshops, but ClearWork lets process owners across all four entities contribute in parallel through an interview link sent by email. SMEs can explain exceptions, answer follow-ups, attach files, or share their screen to capture a complete day-in-the-life walkthrough. ClearWork turns that tribal knowledge into structured findings, cross-references it with the client knowledge base, and surfaces conflicts, variations, and missing requirements before design begins.

Across discoveryA plan that exposes the gaps before design.

ClearWork reviews the client context and interview responses, then identifies missing process owners, conflicting procedures, untested SOPs, and ambiguous requirements. The team approves AI follow-ups and live-session topics before gaps become design assumptions.

The deliverable momentGenerate deeper, build-ready requirements.

Generate the requirements doc, as-is process maps, fit-gap analysis, SOPs, and user stories from the same validated dataset. Push the stories to Jira. Because each requirement is tied to source evidence, build starts with more reliable requirements and fewer late surprises.

The payoffFive-week discovery reduced to three — with deeper knowledge.

Scope misses caught in week 2 instead of UAT. A knowledge base the next phase team inherits, not a deck nobody opens. More reliable requirements, cleaner handoffs, and a faster path into design and build.

Built for client work

Governance and trust your clients expect from a Big 4.

ClearWork is designed for the controls real consulting engagements demand — access, traceability, review loops, and zero AI training on client data.

Role-based access

Keep interviews, projects, and collaboration spaces appropriately scoped per role.

Traceable source evidence

Every output links back to the interview, document, or recording that informed it.

Human review loops

Suggested updates always pass through your team before trusted artifacts change.

No AI training on client data

Your client documents, interviews, transcripts, and recordings are never used to train any AI model. Data sent to AI providers is excluded from training by contract.

The whole loop

Client knowledge compounds into deliverables that never go stale.

Questions

For consulting teams, answered.

ClearWork generates the full range of consulting deliverables from one validated client knowledge base: process maps and swimlane diagrams, requirements documents and BRDs, requirements traceability matrices, standard operating procedures, user stories, and executive roadmaps. Every output links back to the SME interview, recording, or document it came from. Exports to Jira, Word, and standard formats are built in.
Both modes are supported. Many consulting teams use ClearWork as a consultant-only workspace and present polished deliverables to the client. Others bring select client stakeholders in for live collaboration — viewing the knowledge base, commenting on documents, or completing interviews directly. Access is role-based, so you decide what each client user can see.
You send each SME a secure link by email and they complete the interview asynchronously, on their own time. They can talk to a conversational AI voice agent, answer guided questions by typing or dictation, record their screen and narrate a day-in-the-life walkthrough, or attach files and context. No calendar coordination required.
Yes. ClearWork creates a repeatable discovery workflow and consistent deliverables across teams and engagement types — process improvement, technology selection, ERP/CRM implementation, AI deployment, post-merger integration. Your methodology becomes the platform standard.
Yes. ClearWork generates epics, user stories, and tasks and exports them directly to Jira and other project management tools. Deliverables can also be exported to Word, PDF, and the formats your client expects.
Diagramming tools require people to draw and maintain diagrams manually. Traditional BPM software assumes the process is already documented and depends on workshops. ClearWork does the discovery itself, organizes what it learns, and generates the deliverables — with every output traceable to its source.
Outputs are grounded entirely in project materials and SME inputs — never invented. Your team validates suggested changes before they enter the trusted base, every deliverable is linked back to its source evidence, and any artifact built from a changed source is automatically flagged as out of sync.
