Vision & Goals
Contextive's purpose is to enhance communication in organisations with complex business-specific terminology by making it easy to capture, evolve and surface bespoke glossaries in all the places work gets done.
Contextive adapts to your way of working.
Whether your glossaries start life in a wiki, the source code, or an external data source, Contextive will distribute your critical domain knowledge to the places it's needed.
If you collaborate in Notion - Contextive will synchronise your glossaries and make them available in developer IDEs.
If you already have terminology in a data governance platform - sync to Contextive via API and see tooltips on any webpage with Contextive's browser extension.
If you keep your glossary versioned in source control - Contextive's Slackbot detects key terms in chat messages and will (occasionally) reply with a reminder of definitions.
And any or all combinations of the above...
Contextive Editions
Contextive is available in two flavours:
