One story, start to finish

Watch a PM go from “why did this drop?” to a shipped, measured fix.

One connected thread, from the first question to the measured fix.

The one example we’ll follow the whole way down

A PM at a B2B SaaS company notices onboarding activation dropped after last week’s release.

In a normal stack, that’s a week of work across six tools. A dashboard to spot it. Exports to dig. A meeting to argue causes. A spreadsheet to track it. Jira to build it. A BI deck to prove it.

In Vernais, it’s one thread. Follow it.

Connect your stack

Six tools, one credential each: the sources this story runs on.

  • Pick fields, not tables: sync only what matters.
  • Test each credential live before you sync.
  • Connect once; it stays connected in every workspace.

The brain builds itself

The moment data lands, it becomes a graph you can query.

  • Signals: every record, cleaned and deduped to one.
  • Entities: the same thing from many tools, resolved to one node.
  • Topics: self-organized by meaning. Nobody types the labels.

The finding becomes an initiative

One click turns the Case file into initiative IN-142. Nothing retyped.

  • A problem statement, written from the evidence.
  • Signal clusters, split into on-topic and noise.
  • A one-click re-run, refreshed with no duplicates.

Decide the fix

Vernais drafts solutions; you attach evidence and pick one.

  • Solution IN-142-S1 ships the fix for v2.2.1.
  • A fix proposed in chat or a meeting becomes its own card.
