The Patented Technology Behind DecisionAI

Grounding enterprise decisions in explicit business reality.

WorldMind's patented technology provides part of the foundation for DecisionAI — representing real-world business objects, relationships and context so organisational decisions can be grounded in the state of the business.

Patented Technology

WorldMind's technology is protected by granted patents covering foundational methods underlying DecisionAI.

These patented foundations help represent real-world business objects, relationships and organisational context so decisions can be grounded in explicit business reality.

DecisionAI builds on these patented foundations to make organisational decision-making explicit, computable and governable.
Language Can Describe Reality. Decisions Must Operate on Reality.

Large Language Models have transformed how organisations generate, interpret and reason over information.

But important organisational decisions concern things that exist in the real world: customers, employees, transactions, products, assets, locations, policies, contracts and resources.

These things have identities, states and relationships that change over time.

For reliable organisational decision-making, the relevant business reality must be represented explicitly — so the organisation can determine what should be done as that reality changes.

A description of business reality is not the business reality itself.

Representing Business Reality as Objects and Relationships

WorldMind's patented foundation represents organisational reality through explicit business objects and the relationships between them.

A person can be an employee, customer, approver or supplier representative. A company can be a customer, counterparty or vendor. Transactions, products, locations, policies and activities exist in relationship to one another.

Their meaning for a decision depends not merely on their name or description, but on what they are, their current state, and how they relate to other things in the organisation's world.

WorldMind refers to this foundation a
s Social Object AI™.

From Business Reality to Enterprise Decision Models

DecisionAI builds on this foundation to make organisational decision-making explicit through Enterprise Decision Models.

An Enterprise Decision Model represents the reality, objectives, alternatives, variables, constraints, policies and authority relevant to a defined decision.

This allows DecisionAI to evaluate what should be done against the organisation's actual decision context — while making the resulting recommendation explainable, auditable and governable.

The patented foundation represents the organisational world. Enterprise Decision Models represent how the organisation decides within that world.

How the Foundation Supports DecisionAI
Represent
Represent the people, organisations, products, transactions, assets, activities, locations and other objects relevant to the business.
Relate
Make the relationships between those objects explicit.
Ground
Maintain the relevant state and context required for a decision.
Model
Apply Enterprise Decision Models representing objectives, constraints, policies, alternatives and authority.

Determine

Evaluate what should be done under the current conditions.

Trace

Preserve the relevant evidence and decision context so outcomes can be explained and governed.
Why This Foundation Matters

Grounded - Decisions can operate against explicit organisational reality rather than relying only on descriptions supplied through prompts.

Explainable - Relevant facts, relationships, constraints and decision factors can be inspected.

Governable - Policies, authority and human review can be represented explicitly.

Recomputable - When relevant business reality changes, the decision can be evaluated again against the updated state.

Institutionally Controlled - The organisation's way of deciding can remain explicit and governed independently of whichever AI model contributes intelligence.

AI models can change. The institution's decision authority remains its own.

From Intelligence to Institutional Decisions

AI gives organisations increasingly powerful intelligence.

WorldMind's patented technology provides a foundation for grounding that intelligence in explicit organisational reality.

DecisionAI builds on that foundation to help organisations determine what should be done — consistently, explainably and under organisational governance.
