SOFTWARE
Permission-aware enterprise search and actions for a software company
Employees needed one place to ask questions across chat, email, documents and HR policies, and to act on the answer. Wexa built an assistant that answers only from what each person is allowed to open, cites its sources, and performs actions after confirmation and approval.

The challenge
- Knowledge scattered across chat, email, documents and policies
- Search tools that ignore who may see what
- Answers that cannot be acted on safely
What Wexa built
- Ingestion of files and messages with automatic ontology induction into the graph
- Hybrid retrieval: keyword, graph and knowledge base, run as the signed-in user
- Tool-calling agent that plans, cites and loops until the task is done
- Writes confirmed in chat, approved by a different person and executed exactly once; every step audited
