The application is available for both macOS and Windows, providing a keyboard-first experience that prioritizes speed and efficiency. Users can search across their connected apps using natural language, and Contrive will provide AI-generated answers based on the permitted workspace sources. This feature ensures that users receive relevant context and actionable insights without switching between different applications.
Contrive also allows for the organization of multiple workspaces, keeping their knowledge and permissions separate. This feature is particularly useful for teams, as it enables them to invite members to a workspace without seat limits, ensuring everyone has access to the same permitted knowledge.
Security is a key focus for Contrive, which employs permission-aware access controls and encryption for OAuth tokens at rest. Users can disconnect integrations to remove related active data, ensuring that their workspace data remains protected. Additionally, data sharing for model improvement is disabled for Contrive’s OpenAI API project, with selected workspace text processed under specific retention terms.
Overall, Contrive offers a comprehensive solution for managing and searching across multiple workspace applications, providing users with a fast, secure, and efficient tool for their daily tasks.
