SMB Data & Operations
Knovik builds the small internal tools that actually run small and mid-sized businesses: offline-first field apps that sync to the spreadsheets you already trust, AI that answers questions about your own data without sending it anywhere, and agentic automation for the repetitive work in between.
Why This Industry
Most SMBs don't need an ERP — they need the manual steps removed from a process that already works. That usually means meeting the business where it is: the Badu Deal call logger writes every hotline entry to an on-device database first, then syncs to the Google Sheet the team already trusted, rather than forcing a new system on them. Qwerra applies the same philosophy to analysis — ask plain-language questions of your Google Analytics and Search Console data and get a real answer back, with an on-device local AI option so nothing has to leave your browser. And agentic automation handles the multi-step, repetitive work in between, with humans keeping the decisions. Acqly extends this capability to B2B customer acquisition, helping businesses find companies that actually need what they sell.
What We Build
For smb data & operations teams
Field Data Capture Tools
Offline-first mobile apps for teams that work where connectivity is unreliable — every entry stored locally first, synced in the background with automatic retry, so a dead connection never means lost data.
Conversational Data Analysis
Ask plain-language questions of your connected Google Analytics and Search Console data and get an explained answer back — Qwerra, our conversational BI product, with a 100% on-device local AI option running in-browser and a cloud AI fallback for harder questions.
Agentic Workflow Automation
Multi-step automations that handle the repetitive middle of operations — data entry, syncing, monitoring, first-pass drafting — while decisions stay with people. AI assists the decision; it doesn't make it.
