Research keeps what you learn about a customer or a prospect in one place, and keeps it with its source. Every fact carries the page it came from, the exact words it was read out of, and the moment we read them. A fact without all three cannot be saved at all.
How it works
Paste the address of a public page and say who you’re researching. Finocket reads the page and lists what it says, showing you the exact sentence behind each item. Tick the ones you want and they’re kept; leave the rest and nothing happens. Reading a page saves nothing; you decide what becomes a fact.

Anything Finocket cannot tie back to the page word for word is thrown away before you see it. If a figure isn’t in the sentence quoted beside it, or the number has been shortened or reshaped on the way, the whole item is dropped. You’ll see a count of what was refused. You get fewer facts, never a wrong one.
The same rule applies when you save. Finocket reads the page a second time as it saves, so the words have to still be there. If the page has changed in the meantime, nothing is kept and it tells you to read it again.
Money
When a fact is an amount, it is stored as a whole number of paise with its currency spelled out, alongside the figure as the page wrote it. An amount with no currency is refused, because it cannot be compared with anything.
The plain-language brief
Once you’ve kept a few facts you can ask for a short brief on that company. It is written only from the facts you hold. Every sentence has to name the facts it draws on, and a sentence stating anything those facts don’t support is dropped before it reaches you, so an empty brief means “nothing sourced supports a summary yet”, not “nothing to say”. Each sentence comes with links back to the pages behind it.
Taking a fact back
Every kept fact has a bin icon. Taking one back keeps the record of it but removes it from everything: it disappears from the list and nothing, including the brief, can quote it again. Saving it afresh reads the page again, so a fact you bring back is a new reading, not an old one restored.
What is read, and what is not
Only ordinary public web pages over http or https. Addresses on a private network, files, and anything that isn’t a page of readable text are refused. Scripts, styles and hidden comments on a page are ignored, so a number tucked away in a page’s code can never become a fact. Only what a person would actually read counts.
If you haven’t connected an AI provider
Reading a page for you needs an AI provider. Without one you’ll be asked to connect one, and nothing is invented in the meantime. You can still keep facts by hand, and they go through exactly the same checks: the words have to be on the page.
