Question 1

What Is NOAN?

Accepted Answer

NOAN is the company brain and API your team and agents run on. It stores everything true about your business, your positioning, pricing, product, customers, and contacts, as verified, versioned facts, and serves them through one API to your team, your AI assistants, your agents, and the apps and sites you build. One plan replaces the stack you would otherwise buy separately, a headless CRM, a headless CMS, a knowledge base, and a task manager, with full auditability of every fact.

Question 2

Is NOAN suitable for all types of businesses?

Accepted Answer

Yes. NOAN is built for founders running lean, AI-native operations, for the marketing owners keeping a company's core truths current, and for the small teams and startups scaling around them. Agencies and consultants use NOAN with clients too, developing strategy on a living fact base and leaving the client with a source of truth that keeps everything aligned.

Question 3

Can NOAN help my business?

Accepted Answer

Yes. NOAN adapts to any business model and customizes itself to your needs and goals. As you build your fact base, every recommendation, every piece of content, and every agent is personalized by what your business has verified as true. NOAN helps you evolve and sharpen what makes you distinct, rather than flattening it.

Question 4

What makes NOAN different from other AI business platforms?

Accepted Answer

Most AI tools are chat interfaces where your context lives and dies in a session. NOAN is infrastructure: a verified fact layer with an API that your team, agents, apps, and sites all run on. Hallucinations are structural, a symptom of poor input knowledge, so NOAN fixes the input: one living source of truth that humans and AI build together, replacing the sprawl of PDFs, stale docs, and conflicting guidelines, and with it the separate CRM, CMS, knowledge base, and task tools you would otherwise stitch together.

Question 5

What subscription plans are available?

Accepted Answer

The Starter plan is $99/month: one seat, unlimited projects, unlimited facts, Network, the Task Manager, integrations, and the NOAN API with unlimited keys. Additional seats are $79/month each. The Team plan is $299/month with up to 5 seats included and additional seats at $59/month each. It adds admin controls and roles, a shared team workspace with team facts, and priority support. For larger organizations, NOAN Enterprise starts at $3,500/month with up to 20 seats, training, and premium support options. Talk to us at hello@getnoan.com. Every plan can be cancelled at any time.

Question 6

Is there a trial period, and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Starter plan comes with a 14-day free trial and the Team plan with a 21-day free trial, both with full access. You can cancel at any time.

Question 7

Can I get my data out of NOAN?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Your facts are plain text behind a REST API: one authenticated GET exports everything, and your contacts, tasks, and assets are just as readable. Keeping an external backup is a single scheduled request, and if you ever leave, your data leaves with you. No proprietary format, no export fee.

Question 8

How do I know agents grounded on NOAN stay accurate?

Accepted Answer

You can see it running before you buy. getnoan.com is rendered live from our own fact layer, the pricing you read is served from the same facts our agents use, and our changelog is written by them. We are a small team running fully automated on NOAN, with an agent suite handling our sales, support, onboarding, demo videos, and reporting from one task board. Then test it yourself: every plan starts with a free trial, so pick one real task you would not currently trust an AI to do unsupervised, ground an agent on your facts, and see. That confidence is the product.

Question 9

Do I need technical or AI experience?

Accepted Answer

Not at all. NOAN is built for non-technical founders and lean teams. You add your business knowledge in plain language, guided by Smart Blocks, and the NOAN Assistant lets you control everything conversationally. When you are ready to build agents, apps, or sites on your facts, the API is there, but you never need to write code to run your business on NOAN.

Question 10

What AI does NOAN use?

Accepted Answer

Inside the app, NOAN uses leading models from Anthropic (Claude) and OpenAI. You do not need your own model accounts, and the cost of the models is included in your subscription. Just as important, NOAN is model-agnostic by design. Through the NOAN API, any model or agent, from Claude to ChatGPT to open-source models like LLaMA and Mistral, can read from your verified facts. Switch models and you re-teach nothing.

Question 11

Does NOAN integrate with Zapier?

Accepted Answer

Yes. NOAN's Zapier app connects your facts and assistants to more than 7,000 apps, so your favorite tools can trigger actions in NOAN or feed data to it. NOAN also integrates with Gmail, Slack, Stripe, and Google Analytics, and because every plan includes the NOAN API with unlimited keys, you can connect anything you can build.

Question 12

Can NOAN advise me on my business strategy?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The NOAN Assistant is a strategic partner grounded in your verified facts: your positioning, pricing, customers, and goals. It helps you develop strategy in conversation, records the outcome as facts, and then everything you build on NOAN, from content to agents, works from that same strategy. Strategy stops being a deck nobody opens and becomes the thing your business actually runs on.

Question 13

Can NOAN write blog articles?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Because NOAN knows your product, strategy, audience, and brand voice as verified facts, the content it creates is contextualized to your business automatically. You can draft articles with the Assistant, keep them as assets, and publish them straight to your website through the API by tagging them, so your blog runs from the same source of truth as everything else.

Question 14

What features do I get with my subscription?

Accepted Answer

Every NOAN plan includes Smart Blocks and custom Stacks, the NOAN Assistant, Network for your contacts, the Task Manager, integrations, and the NOAN API with unlimited API keys. The Starter plan is $99/month with one seat, unlimited projects, and unlimited facts, with additional seats at $79/month. The Team plan is $299/month with up to 5 seats, adding admin controls, a shared team workspace, and priority support. You can cancel any time.

Question 15

Is NOAN better than ChatGPT?

Accepted Answer

They do different jobs. ChatGPT is a brilliant model with no durable knowledge of your business. NOAN is the fact layer that gives models that knowledge. Your company's verified facts live in NOAN once, and Claude, ChatGPT, or any model or agent you use reads from them through the app or the API. The better the models get, the more powerful NOAN becomes, because they are all grounded in what is actually true about your business.

Question 16

Is NOAN useful for consultants?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Consultants and agencies use NOAN as their own brain, and as an operating system for every client they serve. Develop a client's strategy in NOAN and it becomes a living fact base that content, campaigns, and agents are built on, rather than a deck that goes stale. When the engagement ends, the client keeps a single source of truth that keeps everything aligned long-term.

Question 17

Is NOAN good for marketers?

Accepted Answer

NOAN spells the end of the static PDF as brand bible. Your brand voice, products, positioning, and pricing live as verified facts, and every piece of content, every campaign, and every agent draws from them. Update a fact once, a new price, a launched product, a shift in positioning, and everything built on it uses the new version. On-brand, accurate, at scale.

Question 18

How can AI help me manage my business?

Accepted Answer

NOAN unites your facts, your revenue, team, product, strategy, and contacts, into one source of truth served to your team and your AI through a single API. The Assistant manages your day-to-day: it searches and updates your Notes, Network, and Tasks in plain language. And agents can work from your Task Manager, picking up tagged tasks, doing the work grounded in your facts, and reporting back.

Question 19

What sort of content can NOAN create for my business?

Accepted Answer

Anything that should sound like your business. Blogs, newsletters, and social copy, sales emails and decks, business documents, and more, all drawn from your verified facts so they are on-brand, on-voice, and current. And because your facts are served over the API, the same knowledge can power content in other tools, from outbound in Clay to a website built in Lovable.

Question 20

Can the AI assistant suggest ideas for my business?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The NOAN Assistant is a strategic partner you can brainstorm with. It takes the company knowledge you give it, co-creates strategy with you, and helps you execute it. NOAN has helped users identify partnership opportunities, define new business concepts, generate content programs, and more, always grounded in the facts of your specific business.

Question 21

How does the assistant use my business knowledge?

Accepted Answer

The Assistant works from your verified facts, using the most relevant parts to answer questions, create content, and act on your behalf. It can search your Notes, Network, and Tasks, parse documents you upload, and search the web live for context. It can also propose fact changes as you work, and nothing enters your fact base until it is verified, so your source of truth stays trustworthy.

Question 22

How do I add my business knowledge to NOAN?

Accepted Answer

You start with Smart Blocks, NOAN's way of breaking business knowledge into guided steps, organized into Stacks, including industry Stacks tailored to sectors like manufacturing, farming, and consulting. You can upload existing documents for the Assistant to extract insights from, and create custom Stacks for your own workflows and frameworks. Setup takes minutes, not months, and no engineers.

Question 23

How does NOAN manage my business knowledge?

Accepted Answer

NOAN stores your business as verified facts, organized in Stacks and Blocks and connected in your company graph. Everything can be updated at any time, every fact is versioned with full history, and changes propagate instantly to everything built on top: your team's work, your content, your agents, your apps. That auditability means any answer, decision, or asset can be traced back to the fact it came from and when it was true.

Question 24

What integrations does NOAN have?

Accepted Answer

NOAN connects to more than 7,000 apps through Zapier, and integrates with Gmail, Slack, Stripe, and Google Analytics, including Stripe sales and Google Analytics data in your activity dashboard. Beyond that, the NOAN API with unlimited keys turns your business into a platform: anything that speaks REST can read and write your facts.

Question 25

What can I create with NOAN?

Accepted Answer

Your facts become the foundation for almost anything. Build a website from them in Lovable, run outbound grounded in them from Clay, build agents on Claude or any model through the API, and create content, decks, and documents in the app. Once your business lives as facts, everything you make stays accurate, because it is all reading from the same source of truth.

Question 26

What is knowledge management?

Accepted Answer

Knowledge management is the process of creating, organizing, sharing, and using knowledge within an organization: your products, services, policies, audiences, strategy, and best practices. NOAN handles the organizing for you, structuring your knowledge as verified, versioned facts that are always AI-ready, so both your team and your agents work from what is actually true.

Question 27

What are Smart Blocks?

Accepted Answer

Smart Blocks are NOAN's building blocks for business knowledge. Each block guides you through capturing one part of your business, your positioning, your customers, your pricing, and stores it as structured facts. Blocks are organized into Stacks, and you can create custom Stacks for your own workflows and frameworks. Like Lego bricks, each one is useful alone. Together they snap into a model of your business built for AI, and changing one brick updates everything instantly.
