Questions about Kernyl, answered.

Kernyl is a team workspace with chat, issues, docs, calendar and built-in AI that a company installs in its own cloud. Its AI answers only from what each person is allowed to see, and the company's data stays in its own account.

From $15 per person per month for up to 150 people, $12 up to 500 and $10 up to 1,000, billed annually, plus a one-time installation of $10,000. Everything is included. You pay your cloud provider directly for what you run.

A cloud account of your own. Kernyl and everything it needs run there, and we set it up with your team during the install.

In your own cloud, in the region you choose.

No. A license check-in sends the version, a health flag and user counts. Nothing else.

In your own cloud. Prompts and answers never pass through us.

No. Permissions are checked at the moment of each question.

Typically $500–950 a month for up to 150 people, $1,300–2,500 for up to 500 and $2,600–4,900 for up to 1,000, paid to your cloud provider directly. The table above breaks it down. It depends on your region, how much you store and how much people use AI, and admins can cap monthly AI usage.

A one-time fee of $10,000 covers getting Kernyl installed and configured in your own cloud with your team, including single sign-on and AI.

Every tier includes Chat, Issues, Docs, Calendar and AI for everyone you add, with updates, maintenance and support. There are no add-ons to buy, and new apps are included as they ship.

Subscriptions are annual. Admins see a reminder in Kernyl 30 days before the license expires, and renewing keeps everything running with no change to your installation.

Nothing is deleted, because your data is in your account. After expiry there is a grace period where everything keeps working. Then AI turns off and no new people can join; then Kernyl becomes read-only, where people can still read, search and export; finally only admins can export. Renewing restores full access.

Kernyl allows a small margin over your tier's limit so nobody is locked out on a busy week. When you grow into the next tier, talk to us about moving up.

We never receive your data, so we can't train on it. The models run in your own cloud under your agreement with your cloud provider.

Only you. Ask conversations are private to the person asking, and you can delete them.

It can, which is why every answer lists numbered sources. Open the source to check the original before you act on it.

Kernyl is installed in your own cloud, AI included. We don't run a hosted copy and we never hold your data.

No. Kernyl uses managed AI models in your cloud. You don't manage model servers.

Only what the person asking can open, checked at the moment they ask. @Kernyl in a channel uses only what every member of that channel can see.

No. Slack is only offered as a service that Slack runs. Teams that need chat inside their own infrastructure have to use a different product.

Slack import is in development and is the next importer we'll ship. It works from the export file your Slack admin downloads, so channels can move across one at a time.

Kernyl supports single sign-on with Google Workspace and OpenID Connect providers. SAML and SCIM are not available yet.

Server products stopped receiving support and security fixes in February 2024. Atlassian's paths are its cloud or, for existing customers, Data Center until its end of life in March 2029. Kernyl is another option if your tracker needs to stay in infrastructure you control.

A Jira importer is planned, after the Slack importer that's in development now. Tell us on a call what you need to bring across and we'll share the timeline.

Not yet. Kernyl has statuses, epics, sub-tasks, labels, estimates, due dates and priorities. Custom workflows, custom fields, automation and a query language are on the roadmap.

No. Atlassian ended support for Server products, including Confluence Server, on February 15, 2024. Data Center remains available to existing customers until its end of life on March 28, 2029.

A Confluence importer is planned. The Slack importer is in development now and comes first. Tell us what you need to bring across and we'll share timing.

Yes. Docs uses real-time co-editing, so everyone on a page sees changes as they're typed, and every version is kept in the page history.

Inline comments on selected text, page-level restrictions on top of space roles, PDF export and a version diff view are on the roadmap. Page comments and version restore are available today.
