Question 1

Is this another chat app?

Accepted Answer

Work is where you run tasks. Ask reads memory you saved on purpose. We do not copy your full chat history into the brain by default.

Question 2

What gets stored?

Accepted Answer

Nodes you save: decisions, expertise, artifact slices, processes. Each has a summary, a link to where it came from, and a confidence level. Not a full Slack export.

Question 3

What are context groups?

Accepted Answer

Folders like operator escalation or franchise onboarding. Ask stays inside the groups you pick, so a finance question does not pull in unrelated threads.

Question 4

Which integrations work at launch?

Accepted Answer

Slack, GitHub, and Jira (read-only signals). They feed your context list and capture prompts. You confirm before anything becomes a node.

Question 5

Can I use Ignius with other models?

Accepted Answer

Yes in Work for generation. Ignius still owns the groups and nodes. You can export a context packet to another model when you need to.

Question 6

What about my employer?

Accepted Answer

Private groups stay private until you publish. We are not building employee surveillance. Team and company layers are opt-in on the same engine.
