Explanations articles clarify the concepts behind Grantable — why features work the way they do, how the AI thinks with your data, and the principles or best practices that help users understand the system deeply.

Explanations

Files are how you bring external content into Grantable — but one of Grantable’s strengths is that once you begin working inside the platform, your best source material already lives there.

Understanding How Grantable Uses Your Files

The Style Guide and Organization Profile work together to give Grantable’s AI both your organization’s voice and identity — shaping how it writes and what it knows about you.

Understanding the Style Guide and Organization Profile

The AI Settings Panel lets you control how Grantable’s AI thinks — choosing which sources it can reference, what style it follows, and whether it can conduct online research.

Understanding AI Settings

Roles and permissions define what each person in your organization can see and do inside Grantable — from editing projects to managing billing or inviting new members.

Understanding Roles and Permissions

Your workspace is the home base for everything you do in Grantable — where your organization’s people, projects, files, and AI context all come together.

Understanding Your Workspace

The Research feature allows Grantable’s AI to look up information online when additional context may be useful — such as background data, definitions, or recent developments — and include citations so you can review the sources yourself.

Using the Research Feature (Pro)

If Grantable’s AI isn’t responding the way you expect — producing weak, off-topic, or repetitive results — a few simple checks can usually resolve the issue.

Troubleshooting AI Behavior

Grantable is built on SOC 2 Type 2–certified systems and practices, ensuring your organization’s data is protected through independently audited security, availability, and confidentiality controls.
