Jenna asked for guidance on how to ask questions effectively to get faster answers. Bethan advised on specific query phrasing and offered a guide or demo.

Problem: Jenna reported slow answers and wanted best practices for effective queries. Handling: Bethan explained the brain works best with specific details, names, companies, dates, and that broad questions take longer. Offered a guide or call to walk through examples. Watch: User education on query phrasing can improve perceived performance and adoption.

Hi, we've been using the brain for a couple of months now but I'm not sure we're getting the best out of it. Sometimes answers come back slowly, and I'm wondering if there's a guide on how to ask questions effectively. Are there best practices we should follow? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Jenna.

Hi Jenna, brilliant question. The brain works best when you give it specific details – person names, company names, date ranges, whatever's relevant to what you're looking for. Broad or vague questions can take longer to answer because the brain has to search more widely across your data. I can send you a short guide on how to phrase questions for best results, or we could hop on a quick call to walk through some examples. Let me know what works best. Thanks, Bethan.

BB-Demo is a fictional company; every organisation and person here is invented. B-Brain is the tool. Built by site/build_site.py from the site tree, data as of Fri 9 Oct 2026. Help & Support

Help & Support

B-Brain is one place to read everything the company knows about its customers: the CRM, calls, emails, support tickets, product usage, invoices, documents, news and HR. Every page is built from those systems and the data is current to Fri 9 Oct 2026.

How to use the site

Summary is the landing page: what happened this week, the calls just held and the calls coming up, the risks and the renewals due.
Organisations lists every customer. Open one to see its key facts, the AI assessment and next step, platform usage, the ARR journey, deals, documents, contacts and activity, and the lineage of every block.
Conversations, Commercial, People, News and Documents cut the same data by topic. System explains how the brain is built and where each figure comes from.
Every card ends with a small made from link: it opens the lineage explorer focused on that card, so you can walk from the figure down to the raw rows it came from.
Use the sun and moon button at the top right to choose dark or light. Choose your device's own mode again to go back to following the device.

How to ask

Press Ask Brain in the header. Type a question, or pick one of the examples.

Search the brain finds the organisations, people, calls, emails, tickets, documents and news that match your words, with links to their pages.
Ask Claude copies your question and opens the B-Brain Claude Project, where Claude answers from the same data using the B-Brain tools and cites the pages it used.

The site itself does not call an AI model; answers in Claude come from the same figures you see here.

Data as of Fri 9 Oct 2026. Text marked AI was written by the brain from the records listed in its made-from link; an AI output that cannot cite its evidence is refused and the previous text kept. Where two systems disagree (for example a contract and the CRM), the key facts show both values and mark the difference.
