How it works

From demo to production in days.

01

Run the demo

Open the live demo and ask a question across the Order-to-Cash example — SAP + Salesforce + Slack. See governed, auditable answers in under 30 seconds.

Open demo →
02

Pull Docker, connect your first two backends

One docker pull, one config file. Point thinking sense at two of your systems — a database and a SaaS source works well. Auto-discovery starts immediately; the Governed Ontology Layer begins building from your schemas, row samples, and query history.

03

Validate accuracy on your real data

Ask the questions your team asks every week. Compare thinking sense answers to what your analysts produce manually. Bring the accuracy numbers — and the time saved — to the commercial conversation.

04

Move to Commercial when you're ready to scale

Same binary, same ontology, same audit trail — no migration. Flip the commercial license, add more backends, turn on cluster mode. Your early-access pricing is locked in from your first commercial conversation.

Common questions

Is the Free edition really free forever?

Yes. Two backends, 100 concurrent connections, full feature set — no time limit, no credit card. We want you to validate value before any commercial conversation.

What counts as a 'backend'?

A named data source: one Salesforce org, one SAP instance, one Postgres database, one Snowflake account. The Free edition supports two; Commercial removes the cap.

Does upgrading require migrating or re-training the ontology?

No. thinking sense Free and Commercial ship the same binary and the same ontology format. The license key unlocks capabilities — there's no migration, no data export, no re-discovery.

What does 'early access pricing' mean?

We're working with our first 8–10 commercial customers and locking in favorable terms for teams that commit early. Pricing scales with cluster size and backend count; reach out and we'll build a proposal in one conversation.

Can I run this in a VPC or air-gapped environment?

Yes. thinking sense is fully self-hosted — no data leaves your perimeter in either edition. Commercial adds formal VPC deployment support and an SLA.
