Public records, read on time.

Alcerne finds what really matters in public records and in an organization's own data, and makes it readable in time for the decision.


Discern what is disclosed, single out what matters.

Important decisions are often made in front of a pile of documents nobody has time to read: insider filings, trades by elected officials, public tender notices, the data an organization has accumulated. Alcerne does one thing, applied in three ways: it finds what matters in those documents and presents it clearly, with its sources.

That is where the name comes from. Alcerne echoes the French cerner and discerner — to circle and to discern: first discern what is disclosed, then circle what deserves attention. Alcerne informs a decision; it never makes it for anyone.

Many records, one circled reading.

One method, three uses.

Services

by Alcerne

The same working chain, put to work for your organization: finding what matters in your own data and automating it.

See the services

One deliverable, one fixed price.

Each engagement covers a specific deliverable, described in writing and priced before work starts. The price does not move along the way; what is not in the proposal is not billed.

Automation

Repetitive tasks and document workflows, handed to automated flows that monitor themselves and report their failures.

Data integration

Connecting your sources — software, files, public data — so they talk to each other without re-keying.

Applied AI

Language models used where they help: reading, sorting and summarizing documents, under human control.

Dashboards

The numbers that matter to your decisions, on one page, current and traceable back to their source.

  1. ConversationYou describe the problem; I tell you frankly whether I can solve it, and what will not work.
  2. Written proposalThe deliverable, its limits, the timeline and the fixed price, on one page.
  3. Documented deliveryThe deliverable, its documentation, and how to evolve it without me.
