Where does your AI get its context?

Most teams compare In Parallel to the AI tools they already use — ChatGPT, Copilot, Glean, Notion AI — and to meeting assistants and project trackers. The difference is the same in every case: In Parallel is the organisational memory those tools read from, kept current automatically and served to each one over MCP.

AI tools & search

ChatGPT, Copilot, Glean, Notion AI — powerful, but they answer from what you attach or what is already written down. The context is yours to maintain.

Meeting assistants & trackers

Capture transcripts or track tasks. Useful, but someone still has to turn them into current context — and keep it that way.

The AI context layer

In Parallel captures decisions and commitments from meetings automatically, keeps a living plan, and serves that memory to every AI tool over MCP.

By approach

Not just other tools — the ways teams coordinate today.

In Parallel vs meeting notes tools

A note-taker hands you a transcript and a summary. The work of turning that into decisions people act on is still yours. In Parallel closes that gap.

See the comparison

In Parallel vs manual status reporting

Status reporting is the most expensive recurring meeting you run: hours spent chasing updates, reconciling versions, and rebuilding the same deck. In Parallel produces it for you.

See the comparison

In Parallel vs project trackers alone

A project tracker is only as current as the last person who remembered to update it. The decisions that move the work happen in meetings — and never make it back to the board.

See the comparison

Shared context vs siloed AI tools

You have Copilot in Microsoft 365, Claude on the desktop, ChatGPT in the browser, Cursor in the IDE. None of them know what your company decided last week. That is the silo problem.

See the comparison

In Parallel vs built-in AI memory

ChatGPT memory, Claude memory, Copilot memory — each remembers what one person told one tool. Useful for your preferences; useless as a company record. In Parallel is memory for the organisation.

See the comparison

In Parallel vs context files

Teams that take AI seriously end up writing context files — a CLAUDE.md, an AGENTS.md, a custom-instructions doc. It works, for a week. Then the work moves on and the file does not. That is context drift, and no amount of careful writing fixes it.

Continuous diagnostics vs periodic consulting

A management consulting review interviews a sample, writes a deck, and leaves. By the time you read it, the organisation has moved on. In Parallel diagnoses continuously.

See the comparison

Self-updating plans vs manually maintained plans

Every team has a plan. Almost no team has a current one. The maintenance cost is so high that the plan is stale within days — and decisions route around it. A self-updating plan changes that economics.
