Question 1

What is an AI for Business?

Accepted Answer

An AI for Business is an intelligence layer built directly into the system a company already runs on: it knows your people, teams, roles and policies, connects areas like HR, Finance and IT, and doesn't just answer questions. It can act on your behalf to get work done. Unlike generic AI, it doesn't start from zero in every conversation. It already knows how your business works.

Question 2

What does Factorial do?

Accepted Answer

Factorial is the AI for Business that knows your company, connects how work happens across HR, Finance and IT, and unlocks your company's potential by turning that context into action. Every employee gets One, their personal AI agent, who knows the company's context, works across the whole platform, and helps get things done without exposing company data. Behind key products — Recruiting, Expenses, Shifts and more — sit agents that act within each company's own rules and permissions: Recruiting can call candidates, Expenses approves by policy, Shifts fills its own gaps. Every action asks for permission first, and every action is logged.

Question 3

What is an AI for Business used for?

Accepted Answer

The purpose of an AI for Business is to free people from repetitive admin work so they can focus on what actually matters. Instead of stacking more disconnected AI subscriptions on top of the tools you already have, Factorial builds AI directly into the system where HR, Finance and IT already run. The result is a personal AI agent, One, that knows your company and can act inside it.

Question 4

Why do companies need an AI for Business?

Accepted Answer

Because today, a company's information lives scattered across ten tools, and in nobody's head. That turns your team into the integration layer: chasing answers, copying data between systems, pushing approvals by hand. Generic AI doesn't fix this, it doesn't know your company and needs you to feed it context every single time something changes. An AI for Business like Factorial already knows, because it's built into the system you already work in.

Question 5

What's the best AI for Business?

Accepted Answer

The best AI for Business is one that knows your company, not just the world. That's the gap between generic AI (ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini) and Factorial: generic AI starts every conversation with a blank slate and needs you to paste in the context; Factorial is connected to your live company data from the very first message. Generic AI inherits, at best, file access — it doesn't know who approves what, who sees salaries, or who signs off; Factorial's agent, One, follows your exact existing permissions, so it never exposes anything new. And where generic AI gives confident answers from whatever you upload, Factorial's answers are grounded in your live records, with the source shown.

Question 6

Is there a business version of ChatGPT?

Accepted Answer

Not exactly, and that's the point. Tools like ChatGPT, Copilot or Gemini are built for one person typing into a private chat, with no shared company context: paste it in once, and it's forgotten by the next conversation. Factorial isn't a "business version" of a generic chatbot; it's an AI built specifically for how companies work — embedded in the HR, Finance and IT tools your team already uses, aware of your org chart and permissions, and able to draft, create and complete tasks on your data (always asking for approval first). If what you're looking for is a generic assistant with a company skin on it, that's not Factorial; if you're looking for AI that already knows your business, that's exactly what it is.

Question 7

How much does an AI for Business cost?

Accepted Answer

Factorial's AI for Business starts from £5.40 per employee per month with the Core plan, which includes One (your personal AI agent) and core AI capabilities (handbook, ticketing, documents, signature, communications and analytics). If you need HR, Finance and IT covered in a single platform, you can get the Suite plan. Every bundle includes AI capabilities; your personal agent's capacity (Free, Basic, Plus or Max) can be scaled up depending on how much you use it, so cost stays predictable rather than metered per query.

Question 8

What are Factorial's main AI capabilities?

Accepted Answer

Factorial's AI capabilities cover the key areas of day-to-day work:

• Analytics: reports that run themselves from your live data.
• Routines: answers and alerts that arrive before you ask.
• Handbook: every question answered instantly, with each person seeing only what they're allowed to.
• Expenses: from a pile of receipts to a closed book, with approval or rejection based on policy.
• ATS (Recruiting): drafts job descriptions, spots top candidates instantly, and can call them directly.
• Ticketing: tickets that resolve themselves; One routes them to the right team and drafts the first reply.

Question 9

What reporting and analytics come with Factorial?

Accepted Answer

Factorial's Analytics capability pulls your live data across products — time, expenses, recruiting, performance and more — spots trends and risks, and writes the report for you in seconds, instead of you building it from scratch. Because it's grounded in your company's real, live records rather than a static export, every report reflects what's happening right now, with the source behind each number. You can also ask One directly for a report on any spend category, department or metric you need visibility into.

Question 10

What size company is Factorial for?

Accepted Answer

Factorial is built for mid-market companies, medium and large businesses, and used day to day by CEOs, CFOs, COOs and CHROs who need HR, Finance and IT working from the same data.
