How it works

One desk. Four ways to use it.

Ask a question. Put something on the desk to watch. Keep everything in one place. Bring in a researcher when it matters. Here’s how each part works.

Ask

Ask the desk anything.

Type a question the way you’d ask a colleague. Choose how deep to go: a chat for a fast read, quick research in about 15 minutes or full research in up to an hour. Every answer shows its sources, with dates.

Behind the answers are teams of AI agents, built from ten years of doing this research by hand. They run on the latest frontier models and draw on Sønr data that no other AI has been trained on or can access. You won’t get this depth anywhere else.

Workflows

Put it on the desk. It reports back.

Five ready-made workflows watch what you care about: competitors, market movements, gaps in the market, new vendors and any topic you name. Each one reports back as a Briefing, in TrendDesk and by email, weekly or monthly.

Intelligence Library

Everything in one place.

Every answer and Briefing is saved to your Findings. Your own documents sit beside them in Your Uploads. Both Ask and your workflows read them, so each question starts from what you already know.

Researchers

A person, when you need one.

Sønr’s researchers are part of the desk. Ask them to take a report further, test the thinking behind it or present it to your team or your board.

How the researchers work with you
  • Request research from the menu, or from any full research report or Briefing.
  • Tell us what you need. We come back with a scope, quoted in research days.
  • The work is done by people who have spent ten years inside insurance innovation.
