Getting started
What is eode?
eode turns a plain-English description of your business into a working decision model — and gives you answers you can act on.
eode is a decision platform. You describe your business in plain English; RIA, eode's built-in assistant, interviews you about the decision you're facing, builds a working optimization model of it, solves it, and reads the answer back in your own words. No spreadsheet modeling, no optimization expertise required.
What you can do with eode
- Build a decision model by talking. Start from a conversation, a written brief, or a file import. RIA proves the model on test data before your numbers ever move.
- Ask "what if?" Every question you ask becomes a scenario — compare it against your base, diagnose why something isn't possible, and verify results with exportable evidence.
- Analyze in workspaces. Saveable canvases of charts, tables, maps, and metrics over your solved scenarios — built by hand or proposed by RIA.
- Operationalize with workflows. Publish repeatable stage-by-stage processes with roles and approval gates, and run them with your team.
- Plan sites and routes. Built-in Site Planner (facility placement) and Route Optimizer (vehicle routing) work standalone or extend a solved scenario.
How a decision gets made
- Describe — tell RIA what you're trying to figure out.
- Confirm — RIA plays back the decision frame: what you're deciding, what it will tell you, what's at stake.
- Build — RIA constructs and validates the model on test data, then walks you through a plain-language review before anything is accepted.
- Load your data — upload your numbers onto the verified structure, or start from the figures in your brief.
- Solve and explore — read the best answer, trace the KPIs behind it, and branch into what-if scenarios.
