Question 1

How is Kioku different from documentation or a wiki?

Accepted Answer

Documentation describes how things work today. Kioku captures why a decision was made, what alternatives were considered, and the tradeoffs you accepted, structured as ADRs. It is the record of your reasoning, not just the current state.

Question 2

Do I have to write every decision by hand?

Accepted Answer

No. Paste a rough note or a few sentences and Kioku will structure it into a clean decision record with context, options, decision, rationale, and consequences. You stay in control and can edit anything before saving.

Question 3

How does recall work when I ask why we chose something?

Accepted Answer

Kioku uses semantic search to find decisions by meaning, then answers questions like why did we choose X grounded in your actual records. Every answer points back to the real decisions it came from, so you can trust it.

Question 4

Is our decision history private?

Accepted Answer

Your decisions are scoped to your account, encrypted at rest, and never used to train models. Enterprise plans add a self-host option so your institutional memory never leaves your environment.

Question 5

How does pricing work?

Accepted Answer

Free includes a generous number of decisions with structured capture and AI formatting, no credit card required. Pro is $15 per month for unlimited decisions, semantic search, timeline, tags, and ADR export. Enterprise is custom with SSO, self-hosting, and dedicated support.
