Type the change into your team chat.
Anyone on the team can ask @Kanonik in Slack, Microsoft Teams or Claude. Write it the way you'd say it, for example "We're moving backups to Brookvale. Does this break anything?" Foresight answers in the same thread with one line for each promise the move touches.
Send a photo of the contract page.
An engineer photographs page 4 of Brookvale's data processing addendum on a phone and sends it to the chat. The AI reads the clauses that matter, like how long backups are kept and where they're stored, and Dana Reyes approves those facts before Foresight uses them. Kanonik keeps each fact with its clause number and a fingerprint of the photo. The AI reads the photo on your side, and Kanonik never gets it.
Give your AI the vendor's PDF, or a link to its terms.
Vendors usually send the DPA as a PDF, or publish their sub-processor terms on a web page. Your AI reads either one on your side and proposes each fact with the page and clause it came from. Someone on your team approves the facts, and Foresight checks the change against your promises.
On a customer call in Microsoft Teams with Copilot.
Copilot reads the call transcript and asks Kanonik. When a buyer asks a security question, the rep sees the approved answer on screen. If the rep offers more than the record backs, like 60 days' notice where the approved answer says 30, the rep sees it and corrects it on the call.
Kanonik never joins the call, and the buyer sees an ordinary meeting. Only people on your team whose role allows it see Kanonik's side of the screen.

Harbor Ledger, a sample company
Marcus asks about backups. The answer Dana Reyes approved is on the rep's screen before the rep replies.
Approved answer
Yes. Nightly backups are encrypted, and each one is kept for 30 days. Approved by Dana Reyes on 4 Sep 2026.
He asks about a bug bounty program. The record has no approved answer, so Kanonik asks Dana instead of guessing.
No approved answer yet
Asked the owner (Dana Reyes) at 14:06.
The rep offers 60 days' notice before a new sub-processor. The approved answer on screen says 30, so the rep corrects it on the call and asks Dana whether 60 is possible.
The approved answer says 30 days
Customers get 30 days' notice before a new sub-processor starts. Approved by Dana Reyes on 12 Sep 2026.
After the call, the recap lists every question, and the follow-up to Marcus is drafted from approved answers only.
Three of the four questions have approved answers, and Dana has been asked about the fourth.
Before a vendor change is signed.
Harbor Ledger wanted to move its database backups to Brookvale Backup. The walkthrough follows that change from the photo of page 4 to Dana Reyes signing off, including the three promises Foresight found the contract would break. Follow the Brookvale change.
