How SinglePoint turns trusted content into answers you can prove.
SinglePoint is Northern Light’s market and competitive intelligence platform for turning trusted research into cited answers. The platform runs one loop: licensed, internal and curated content in; enrichment and governance in the middle; cited answers and intelligence out. Here’s what happens at each step, and why the foundation makes the answers defensible.

The four steps
From trusted content to a cited answer, in four steps.
- 01
Bring your content together
Unify licensed research from 150+ providers, your proprietary and internal work, and Northern Light’s Curated Intelligence Collections in one governed place. SinglePoint can use premium licensed research that general-purpose tools like ChatGPT and Copilot do not have rights to use by default.
- 02
Make it AI-ready
Every source is enriched with industry-specific taxonomies and a controlled vocabulary, then structured for full-document retrieval. That’s what lets the AI understand what a document means for your industry, not just find it.
- 03
Run governed AI on it
Ask in plain language, and governed AI reasons over that content: conversational intelligence for everyday questions, and multi-agent Deep Research for the decisions that have to be right. Retrieval is restricted to your approved and licensed sources, and the Coverage Judge checks whether there is enough trusted material to answer before the system responds. It refuses to guess when coverage is thin.
- 04
Get a cited answer, everywhere
Every claim traces to its source document, read in full context. Answers, dashboards, newsletters, and alerts reach the whole org, and flow into the tools your team already uses through Microsoft Copilot and MCP.
Why it works
The foundation is the difference.
AI is only as good as the content it can retrieve. A chatbot layered over scraped pages or file dumps can produce answers that sound right but are hard to verify. SinglePoint starts with 20 years of curated content, taxonomy, search infrastructure and governance that every AI capability inherits.
Proof built into every answer
Click any point in an answer to open the exact source document, read in full context, and verify it in seconds.
Reach across the whole org
A team of one or two can serve thousands, through dashboards, alerts, and conversational intelligence in the tools people already use.
Enterprise-ready by design
SOC 2, SSO with permission inheritance, zero data retention, no training on your content, and platform pricing rather than per seat.

Compared to general AI
How is this different from ChatGPT or Microsoft Copilot?
The short version: SinglePoint combines licensed and internal content that general-purpose AI may not have rights or access to use directly, industry enrichment, source-level citations and enterprise governance in one market and competitive intelligence platform. General-purpose tools don’t provide that full governed content-to-answer chain by default.

Common questions
Questions about how SinglePoint works.
What makes content “AI-ready”?
Two things: it’s licensed for AI use, and it’s enriched and structured so an AI can retrieve it accurately and understand what it means in context. Most enterprise intelligence fails one or both; licensed research legally can’t be fed into general AI, and internal content isn’t structured for retrieval.
Does it read our internal content?
Yes. Your proprietary and internal research is answered alongside licensed and curated content, under your existing permissions.
How do we verify an answer?
Every claim links to the source document it came from, read in full context, so you can check it directly rather than taking the answer on trust.
Do we have to replace Copilot or ChatGPT?
No. Keep them for what they’re good at. SinglePoint handles market and competitive research on content those general-purpose AI tools may not have rights or access to use directly, and can bring governed intelligence into them through Copilot and MCP.
