# In Parallel
> In Parallel is the context layer for your company's AI: it gives each person and each AI one current picture of every project at the depth they may see, with access rights, sensitivity and decay enforced on every share. The AI your team already uses doesn't know what your team decided. In Parallel captures the decisions, threads, and meetings that never make it into a document, keeps a living record, and gives that context to every AI tool in your stack (Claude, Copilot, ChatGPT, Cursor) via MCP — so each tool answers with what the company actually decided, with the source behind every answer. Four layers — Notes, MCP, Plans, Diagnostics — over one shared record, so your people and your agents act on the same truth. Built for sensitive, cross-functional work: every workspace is permission-scoped so an AI only ever sees what its user is allowed to see, confidential discussions stay contained, data never leaves the EU unless you ask, and nothing is ever used to train models.
## Product
- [Homepage](https://www.in-parallel.com/): Your AI is great, but it doesn't know what your team decided last Tuesday. In Parallel gives your AI the shared context you already have — the decisions, threads, and meetings it's missing — with the source behind every answer. One memory for every AI tool, served over MCP (Claude, Gemini, ChatGPT, Copilot).
- [In Parallel Notes](https://www.in-parallel.com/notes): AI note-taker — nine-signal extraction from every meeting. Included in every plan, from €29 / user / month.
- [In Parallel MCP](https://www.in-parallel.com/mcp): The MCP context layer — powers Claude, Copilot, ChatGPT and other AI tools with live organisational context.
- [Build on In Parallel](https://www.in-parallel.com/build): For agent builders — give any agent permission-scoped, cited organisational context over MCP, and write its work back into the shared record. Skip building capture, permissions and provenance.
- [In Parallel Plans](https://www.in-parallel.com/plans): Self-updating execution plans with drift detection. From €29 / user / month.
- [In Parallel Diagnostics](https://www.in-parallel.com/diagnostics): 10-lens execution-health scoring, 0–100 per lens, traceable to transcript evidence. €25,000 first run, €15,000 / quarter recurring.
- [Briefings](https://www.in-parallel.com/briefings): Automated stakeholder briefings generated from the shared record (included with paid).
- [Talking Points](https://www.in-parallel.com/talking-points): Meeting talking points drawn from live context (included with paid).
- [How It Works](https://www.in-parallel.com/how-it-works): Capture, Extract, Connect — the 3-step workflow and integrations.
- [Pricing](https://www.in-parallel.com/pricing): Price the knowledge, not the people. Three plans, one per company: Professional €29 (teams under 50 users: meeting notes, chat, pages, workspaces, MCP; 120 KU per user a day) and Business €69 (adds sharing and up to 5 app integrations; 250 KU) per user a month, billed monthly or prepaid annually at 20% off; Enterprise from 50 users, everyone on one contract, custom annual price invoiced in advance, with unlimited app integrations, SSO and a named contact. One KU is one minute of meeting turned into structured knowledge; an item is 5 KU, an AI answer 10 KU; MCP reads are free up to 10,000 per user a month, pooled. Every user who logs in has a seat; AI agents need none. Extra KU: automatic top-ups of 1,000 KU for €250 with an admin cap; no overage rate. No separate pilot: customers start on the paid licence, billed monthly and cancellable any month. Dedicated cloud, on-premises and professional services on request. Diagnostics priced separately.

- [How In Parallel pricing works](https://www.in-parallel.com/guides/how-pricing-works)
## Research
- [The Coordination Tax Index 2026](https://www.in-parallel.com/coordination-tax): Survey of 247 managers across five countries (Pollfish, June 2026). Index 31/100; managers lose 16.5 hrs/week to coordination (41% of a 40-hour week); 760 hrs / $64,600 per manager per year. Includes a calculator and a gated report PDF.
## Security & Compliance
- [Security](https://www.in-parallel.com/security): Permission-scoped AI access (an AI only sees what its user can see), no cross-workspace data bleed, prompt injection treated as input not instruction, no model training on your data — ever, EU data residency, ISO 27001, ISO 42001, SOC 2 Type II, GDPR compliance. Built for confidential work: board MNPI, HR and people decisions, M&A.
- [How your context stays current](https://www.in-parallel.com/how-it-stays-current): How In Parallel avoids context drift — the failure mode where a context file or wiki page freezes while the work moves on. Context is captured where decisions are made (meetings, threads) rather than maintained by hand; every record carries when it happened, when it was captured, and a link to the meeting it came from; decisions state whether they are proposed, reviewing, approved or rejected; goals past their date are surfaced for review; and any record can be corrected in place by a person or by an AI, while attribution for who decided stays fixed.
