Answers to your questions

Who can make a disclosure?
Employees, directors and contractors can disclose potential conflicts. The process can be configured around the groups and circumstances your organization needs to review.
What types of situations can people disclose?
Your forms can collect circumstances such as outside roles, financial interests or relationships with suppliers. Your policy determines what people need to disclose.
Does a disclosure mean someone has done something wrong?
No. A disclosure gives your organization context to review a situation and decide how it should be handled. The reviewer considers the facts before deciding what happens next.
Can we use our own questions and review process?
Confide’s forms and case-management workflow can be configured around your process. The demo can show how your requirements map to the available controls.
How does AI help?
Echo helps collect missing context, Compose helps summarize information and prepare drafts, and Sentinel helps explore recorded information. Your team reviews the output and makes the decisions.
Who can see the information?
Access is configured for the people handling the disclosure. Internal review notes and participant correspondence serve different purposes; the demo can show how these work for your team.
