Understand your data.
Prove your conclusions.
Turn spreadsheets, PDFs, and messy documents into evidence-backed insights, lineage, and decisions you can trust.
Built for decisions that need proof.
Most tools ship confident answers. Northwind ships answers your team can defend.
Generic AI
Fast answers, weak traceability.
- Plausible-sounding text
- No grounded sources
- Hard to defend in review
BI tools
Great dashboards, weak messy-document reasoning.
- Requires clean data warehouses
- Can't read PDFs or scanned docs
- Limited narrative context
Northwind
Evidence-backed answers across files, datasets, citations, lineage, and audit trails.
- Claim-level citations to source rows
- Lineage from raw input to conclusion
- Audit-ready review history

From raw files to decisions you can defend.
Three steps. No glue code, no opaque models.
Upload
Bring spreadsheets, PDFs, and documents into Northwind.
Analyze
Automatically extract, map, and surface insights.
Defend
Every result links back to evidence, citations, and lineage.
Everything you need to trust conclusions.
Six capabilities that work together — so your team moves fast without losing the paper trail.
Insights
Every insight is generated from your source data — no hallucinations, no orphan claims.
Ask
Natural-language questions answered against your own files and datasets.
Lineage
Trace any number, chart, or conclusion back to the inputs and transformations that produced it.
Audit Trail
Every action, edit, and run is recorded — reviewers never have to reconstruct the work.
Notebooks
Reproducible analysis with live datasets, cell-level runs, and persistent outputs.
Dataset Builder
Turn messy spreadsheets and extracted PDFs into clean, typed datasets.
Data Quality
Type inference, schema validation, and anomaly flags on every input before insights run.
Exports
Ship results to CSV, XLSX, or a shareable link — with lineage and citations intact.
Every answer shows its work.
Northwind links every insight back to the source rows, documents, transformations, and evidence behind it — so reviewers spend time validating, not reconstructing.
- Claim-level citations
- Row and document evidence
- Lineage from input to conclusion
- Audit-ready review history
From messy files to trusted answers.
Stop reconciling inputs by hand. Start reviewing conclusions that come with the evidence attached.
Why teams choose Northwind.
Six reasons buyers stop evaluating and start shipping reviews.
Not another chatbot
Northwind is a structured workspace — projects, datasets, notebooks, and audit trails, not a prompt box.
Every answer links to evidence
Citations open the exact source rows, documents, and transformations behind each claim.
Works on real messy files
Spreadsheets, PDFs, scanned docs, exports — bring what you actually have, not a sanitized dataset.
Faster than manual review
Automated extraction and mapping replace weeks of reconciliation with minutes of review.
Easier than building internal tooling
No data pipelines, no custom dashboards, no engineering backlog. Upload and go.
Built for teams, not solo prompts
Project-level access, review workflows, and shared context — so decisions scale beyond one person.
Ready on day one
No data pipeline setup, no onboarding engineers, no quarter-long rollout. Upload files, get evidence.
Works without a data warehouse
Bring the files you already have — Northwind structures them on the way in, so you can start reviewing today.
Built for teams that cannot guess.
Evidence-backed workflows your team can adapt — without rebuilding process from scratch.
What used to take days now takes minutes.
Five workflows where teams move from reconciliation to review overnight.
Month-end close
Vendor audit
Board prep
Contract review
Ops reconciliation
FP&A
Internal audit
RevOps
Bring us the mess.
Upload spreadsheets, PDFs, documents, images, exports, URLs, and APIs. Northwind turns scattered inputs into structured evidence.
Built for enterprise trust.
Controls and guardrails designed for the teams that cannot afford to be wrong.
Role-based access
Scoped permissions so only the right people can view, edit, or approve work.
Audit logs
Every action, run, and edit is recorded for review and reproducibility.
Secure storage
Data stored with encryption in transit and at rest across the platform.
Private workspaces
Project-level isolation keeps teams, clients, and engagements separate.
Human review workflows
Keep a human in the loop on decisions that matter — no silent automation.
Evidence-backed outputs
Every insight carries citations and lineage, so reviewers see the chain of work.
Retention controls
Configurable retention windows for projects and artifacts — keep what you need, drop what you don’t.
Version history
Every notebook, dataset, and insight keeps a replayable history so you can diff answers over time.
Questions, answered.
Everything most buyers want to know before starting a pilot.
