Buy a company. Inherit what it learned.

The marketplace for verifiable business experience.

Some companies took years to learn what works, what doesn't and why.

Now you can acquire that experience along with the company.

Decisions. Context. Directors. Years of learning.

You don't start from zero. You start with what others already learned.

A company page from the catalogue: its figures, its open problem and its six axes.

Experience from companies that already solved what you are solving.

Don't buy only what a company has. Buy what it knows.

A company is not only its assets, its accounts or its customers.

It is also everything the people in charge learned while building it.

What decisions they made.

What problems they solved.

What alternatives they discarded.

Who was behind each decision.

And what happened next.

That is what makes a company different in KnotApp.

Every acquisition can come with its organisational memory: structured, verifiable and ready to join your Holding.

Decision 6/44

Changing contractor halfway through the first renovation

Reason

Two delays and a bathroom that had to be redone entirely. The $9,000 saving turned into $6,500 of overrun and seven weeks with nothing to rent. From then on, price alone stopped being enough: any contractor had to show finished work before being chosen.

You can also buy executive experience.

Directors with a record you can check.

Not just who a director is.

What they did. Where they did it. How long they stayed. And what decisions they made.

Each record connects their hours, their companies and the decisions they took part in.

The record says

  • Candor10He says what nobody wants to hear, in the first meeting.
  • Decisiveness9In a crisis the worst decision is not making one.
  • Rigor9He goes straight to the cash and the payment calendar.
  • Risk6He takes painful cuts if they save the company.
  • Negotiation6He can sit down with creditors without giving up his position.
  • Vision4He is not thinking three years out. He is thinking about getting to March.

And the blind spot

He cuts too much. He has taken out muscle along with the fat.

One company. Its directors.
The whole history, connected.

Experience does not arrive in pieces.

A company .ziri can contain the .ziri files of its directors.

Its decisions, people and relationships stay connected when you import.

You are not importing a collection of files. You are importing a company with its connections.

Decisions arrive with the people who took part in them.

The experience travels. Your data does not.
The .ziri protects it.

Knowledge is shared without taking your company out of where it is.

When a company is exported, it does not export its accounts, its credentials or its customers.

It exports its experience.

No money. No passwords. No customer data. No telemetry.

Only what you decided to turn into transferable knowledge.

Everything that matters goes inside the .ziri.

The knowledge travels encrypted.

Outside there are only the metadata needed to identify and validate the file: format, version, licence, signature and language.

Everything else stays protected inside.

Nothing else.

Only KnotApp can open it.

The file cannot simply be turned into a readable document or opened with an outside tool.

The experience stays protected until you decide to import it.

Authenticity is checked before opening.

The signature is verified against the encrypted content.

If a .ziri has been tampered with, it is rejected before being decrypted.

That way you know that what you are about to import is exactly what was signed.

The content travels encrypted, so whoever tampers with it cannot even read the figure they want to change. And the signature is checked against the ciphertext: the rejection happens before anything is decrypted.

The seller tells. The .ziri proves.

What you see in the Marketplace comes from what you are going to buy.

Decisions, directors, hours and dates are computed from the real content of the .ziri.

They do not depend on what anyone wrote in their listing.

The 52 is the example of an inflated listing. Everything else comes from counting the package: the listing was inflated to 52 and the count kept saying 44.

9 years

of documented decisions in the oldest company in the catalogue.

With dates. With context. With the people who took part.

We also show you what is left out.

Before importing, you know exactly what you are going to receive.

During the import you can see which records go in and which stay out.

No buying an incomplete history without knowing it.

What goes in is known. What is missing, too.

Before importing

The seller decides what to share. The buyer knows what they receive.

Open it in your KnotApp.

Import a company without touching yours.

The imported company appears as a new company inside your Holding.

Your companies stay where they were.

The new experience lives alongside yours and can keep growing with you.
