- Can we ask questions in plain language? * Yes. Scholarly Assistant answers questions like “Who on my faculty served on a jury for a short film festival?” with permission‑aware tables or charts in seconds. (source)
- How are evaluations, reviews, and approvals handled? * Run annual reviews, promotion, tenure, and more with real‑time tracking and role‑based permissions, all connected to your faculty data. (source)
- Is Scholarly secure and permission‑aware? * Yes. Role‑based access, auditability, encryption in transit/at rest, SOC 2 Type II compliance, and no use of faculty data to train AI models. (source)
