For AI to deliver on the hype, it needs a deep understanding of context—the relationships between data scattered across systems, spreadsheets, emails, call recordings, and even in people’s heads. Without this context, AI will never be anything more than artificial ... it will never earn your trust.The ONLY way to achieve this is through collaboration across teams and systems. Cinchy is the only platform that orchestrates creating and maintaining an interconnected, collaborative data network, giving AI the missing context to be trustworthy and transformative.This approach, called "Collaborative Intelligence" (CI), is why Cinchy exists.Cinchy is fundamentally different—it’s not just another system in your enterprise architecture; it’s the connective tissue that makes all your systems smarter, and your AI actually intelligent.

Our Values:

At Cinchy, we are driven by these core values:

- Customer Centricity: We are here to bring value to our customers and to be true partners, guiding them to long-term sustainable value, not just fulfilling short-term wants.

- Flexibility: The way it has always been done might not be the best way to do it. We are adaptable and open to new ways of doing things, both for our customers and within our teams. This includes being open to change, iterating, and learning from failures.

- Accountability: We are 100% accountable for our actions and commitments. We take ownership, are transparent, and learn from our mistakes. We strive to deliver outcomes and fix our errors, focusing on what drives long-term value for Cinchy and our customers.

- Teamwork: There is only one goal – we work together as one Cinchy team to achieve our annual operating plan (AOP). Individual and team goals are secondary; if they differ, they are misaligned and should be fixed. We are a symbiotic team and must collaborate cross-functionally to achieve customer and Cinchy value.

- Open Communication: We can argue and discuss with respect and open candor, but once a decision is made, that is the path. No back doors and second-guessing. We are committed to transparency and solving problems cross-functionally.
