How Node works.
Node connects to your tools, maps your workflows, and shows you exactly what to do — then helps you do it. Here's what that looks like in practice.
Node maps your software + how you work.
Most businesses have a rough idea of what tools they're paying for. Almost none can tell you how those tools connect to the work people actually do. Node builds the full picture automatically — not from a spreadsheet exercise, but from the data that already exists across your systems.
- Connects to your core systems — Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, your finance platform, Slack, and your key SaaS tools.
- Auto-discovers every application your team uses — paid, free, shadow IT, the lot.
- Maps every vendor, owner, usage pattern, contract, and renewal date.
- Goes deeper than a licence list — Node maps the workflows and capabilities those tools support.
- Each workflow gets a health score, so you can see what's working and what's quietly broken.

Node shows you what to do next.
Once Node has the map, it runs intelligence across everything — benchmarking your tools, contracts, and workflows against real market data and what comparable companies actually do. Every recommendation is tied to your company's goals, not generic best practice.
- Benchmarks every vendor against real pricing data from businesses like yours.
- Identifies overlap, waste, and gaps: duplicate tools, unused licences, capabilities with no software support.
- Aligns every recommendation to your goals, from North Stars down to the workflows that deliver them.
- Tells you what to buy, cut, consolidate, or automate — with clear impact analysis.
- Surfaces orphaned projects, unfunded objectives, and tools that can't justify their place.
Node executes and improves.
Node doesn't stop at recommendations. It helps you act on them — from negotiating with vendors to redesigning workflows to deploying AI agents that keep things running. The CIO function you never hired, doing the work you never had time for.
- Negotiates renewals on your behalf — armed with benchmark data, usage insights, and contract history.
- Runs procurement workflows: evaluations, approvals, stakeholder alignment, all tracked in one place.
- Every employee can get their own Node — an AI assistant that learns their role, tools, and workflows.
- Specialist agents work in the background: Negotiator, Renewal Scout, Usage Analyst, Workflow Analyst.
- Chases approvals, surfaces decisions, and pushes projects along — pulling you in only when it matters.
- The system learns continuously — as your business changes, Node's map and recommendations adapt.
Good morning. Here's what Node has for you.
