Knowledge is power, but only if shared.

Scientists, engineers, planners and managers depend on knowledge every day. Tacitous Next, the Knowledge & Expertise Hub, puts it within reach: the people who know, the lessons they learned and the communities where they work things out together. Tacitous doesn’t simply store knowledge. It connects knowledge, people and expertise so that organisations can put what they know to work.

Pathway to Expertise

A pathway to the knowledge and people you need.

Tacitous helps people discover relevant expertise, connect with knowledgeable colleagues and access the lessons, practices and communities that support their work. By linking people with organisational knowledge, Tacitous makes expertise easier to find, share and reuse.

Why it matters: Find the right expert or existing knowledge on a subject in one place, instead of asking around.

  • Relationships, Map and Constellation views of the same subject
  • Designated experts shown because of an explicit expertise assignment
  • Learnings, After Action Reviews, decisions, Peer Assists, ideas, library items and events grouped by category
  • Export a category as a semantic knowledge graph in JSON-LD, Turtle or N-Triples

Knowledge Management and AI

AI is only as useful as the knowledge behind it.

AI cannot recover institutional knowledge that was never captured, structured or maintained. Before AI can help, organisations need trusted knowledge to work from.

  1. 01

    Know who knows

    Identify the knowledgeable people behind each area of expertise.

  2. 02

    Capture experience

    Record critical experience before it is lost, not after.

  3. 03

    Structure it

    Turn lessons and practices into consistent, comparable records.

  4. 04

    Assign ownership

    Give knowledge owners, such as designated experts and community managers.

  5. 05

    Keep context

    Retain where knowledge came from, who validated it and when.

  6. 06

    Trusted access

    Make approved knowledge easy to find for the people who need it.

What Tacitous Next does today

Expert profiles and the Expertise Map, Communities of Practice, structured knowledge forms, reviewed and approved learnings, knowledge libraries and governed access. Together these build the trusted knowledge foundation that any AI initiative depends on.

Where AI fits next

Well-structured, owned and validated knowledge opens up broader opportunities, such as AI-assisted search, summaries and recommendations. We are happy to discuss your AI plans and how your knowledge foundations can support them.
