Ferrith at launch

2026.09.11Ferrith ChatAccount portalAPI11 Sep 2026
Highlights
  • Chat with your documents and whole folders, with linked citations.
  • Build agents, multi-step workflows with human review, and analysis grids inside your workspace.
  • Manage your plan in the account portal; automate with scoped API keys and an interactive reference you can try with your own key.
  • Encrypted at rest. Content, inference, key management and identity all in the UK, and nothing you upload is used for AI training.

The first public release of the Ferrith platform: Ferrith Chat (your workspace), the account portal, and the API. This note describes the platform as it launches. From here, every change will be its own dated note, and you can follow them in the feed.

Ferrith Chat

  • Chat with your documents. Attach files (PDF, Word, Markdown, plain text) or a whole folder of files to a conversation. Answers cite their sources, and a citation opens the document at the cited page with the passage highlighted. Download any answer as a PDF or Word document.
  • Agents. Give a recurring job a name: an agent carries its own instructions and its own knowledge base of documents, and greets people with what it needs. Worker agents power workflows.
  • Workflows. Chain agents into multi-step processes with a form-based builder or YAML, or alternatively describe what you want and let the workspace draft the workflow for you. Add human review steps (approve, edit a single field, or reject with a comment); the run records who decided what and shows exactly what a reviewer changed. Follow runs live step by step, and finish with a rendered PDF or Word output.
  • Notifications. The bell shows what needs you. A review request names who started the run and whether someone has already acted on it; filter by workflow, date, or status, and clear notifications you are done with without losing them.
  • Analysis grids. Rows are documents, columns are your questions. Each cell is answered from the whole document with page-referenced evidence, and the grid exports to CSV. Save a grid's questions as a reusable template. A simpler and more robust way of asking questions across a large folder of documents. You can even chat against the results for more insights. Included on the Professional and Automation plans.
  • Bundles. Export a workflow, agent, or grid template as a bundle and import it into another workspace. Everything arrives as drafts, and nothing personal is included. See importing and exporting bundles.
  • Workspace administration. Add and remove members and set their scope (admin, agent/workflow authors); Add multiple members to roles to restrict folders/documents, workflows, reviews, agents and analysis grids to specific teams; folder-level read and edit access; restrictable agents, workflows, and grids; a storage view with a recycle bin; a view of the documents your integrations upload and the runs that used them; and a complete workspace export for the Owner.
  • Your key, if you want it. Every workspace's content is encrypted at rest. Workspaces on the BYOK arrangement bind their encryption to a key vault they control, revoke the grant and the workspace is unavailable to everyone, Ferrith included. Ask us about BYOK.
  • Private Models. Models you chat against, or use for workflows, agents and grids are hosted directly by Ferrith. No content ever leaves the Ferrith platform, is never sent to 3rd party AI providers, is never logged and is never used for model training.
  • Help where you are. The ? assistant answers questions about the screen you're on and has the full context of what your looking at.

Account portal

  • See and change your subscription, add seats, agent packs, and storage as you grow, and download invoices.
  • Upgrades apply straight away; reductions apply at renewal. Cancelling shows you exactly when access ends and what happens to your data, and you can re-subscribe from the same page.
  • The plans build on each other: analysis grids from Professional; workflows and the API on Automation. Current inclusions and prices are visible on the pricing page.

API

  • Workspace API keys carry scopes, and a key can be limited to particular workflows allowing you to control what a specific key can do.
  • Start workflow runs, follow them on a live event stream, upload input documents, and download rendered outputs.
  • An OpenAI-compatible chat endpoint is available.
  • The getting-started guide walks through your first call, and the interactive reference lets you try every endpoint with your own key.
