What is a company brain? Why it's engineering's next competitive moat
The practitioner pitch, scoped to the engineering org: a knowledge layer that stays current automatically, reads code rather than text written about code, and survives turnover and reorgs. The compounding argument is the strongest part, the gap between teams with and without one looking structural rather than incremental. The telling omission is permissions: not a word on need-to-know, which is roughly where every vendor in this space currently stops.
