Ways to research a company
Starting from a saved company name, there are two.
| Method | What it does |
|---|---|
| Google search | Searches the company name in the device browser. PixWork only opens the search screen |
| Company Brief | You run it explicitly, and the AI summarises company information, strengths, recent news and so on from web search results |
Company Brief never runs on its own. It runs only when you choose to run it from a company’s detail screen, and each run consumes a ticket. Tickets can be bought and used on either the Free or the Plus plan. Check the plan screen in the app or the store listing for the current details and prices.
How to read a Company Brief
A Company Brief is the AI’s summary of company information, strengths, recent news and so on, based on web search results. The date it was retrieved is shown on screen.
The output includes AI-generated summaries and interpretation. Verify anything you will act on — a deal, a contract, an investment — against the original sources. The summary is there to save reading time, not to stand in for checking.
The language of the generated text follows the language setting in the app. Names and company names read from a card stay in the language printed on the card, whatever that setting says.
Where the results are kept
Research results are saved on the device as company information, reachable from any contact at that company.
With the Google Sheets connection on, company information syncs to the Companies sheet. If a teammate has already researched the same company, their result is shared through the sheet.
The Companies column layout is on "Google Sheets column layout". Unlike Contacts, that second sheet requires the first fourteen columns to match position for position.
