Intelligence Pipeline

Your intelligence
pipeline.

Design the workflow. Assign the models. Drop in your data. Each stage hands its output to the next — and you see everything.

How it works

Build once.
Run forever.

Define the stages. Assign the models. Write the prompts. From that point on, it’s one input and a run button.

01
Design the pipeline
Add stages in order. Pick a model for each. Write the prompt. Save it with a name that means something.
02
Drop in the input
A document. A URL. A data file. A transcript. Each stage picks up where the last one left off.
03
Review every step
Read, edit, or download the output at any stage. Token cost tracked automatically — no surprises.

The old way

Every message costs
more than you see.

Chat carries the full conversation on every reply. Research, analysis, writing, and verification — all running through one premium model, at premium rates, every single time.

The hidden cost
One model for everything
Every reply re-reads the entire conversation. Research, a quick edit, a fact-check — all billed at the same top-tier rate, on a growing context window.

The time cost
Back and forth, by hand.
Six prompts to get one structured output. Copy the result. Start the next prompt. Repeat for every stage. Foundry runs them all — you come back to results.
more prompts for one equivalent pipeline run
* Approximate costs based on published API pricing as of May 2026. Actual costs vary. Foundry does not mark up API costs — your provider bills you directly.
The Foundry way
Build the workflow.
AI does the work.

Define each stage once. Assign the right model to each job. Every run hands output from one stage to the next automatically — the right model, at the right cost, doing exactly what it’s built for.

Stages run in sequence. Each one gets the output of the last.
Each stage uses the model built for that job — not the most expensive one available.
Every output is visible, editable, and downloadable. No black box.
Save the pipeline. Run it again with new input in one click.

Use cases

One engine.
Any workflow.

The pipeline structure stays the same. What changes are the stages, the models, and the prompts. Your methodology, encoded once, runs on anything.

Research & Intelligence
Pull live data, synthesize findings, produce a structured report. Run the same brief through two pipeline configs and compare what comes back.

Legal Document Prep
Review source documents, flag risks, produce structured summaries. Every stage output is visible and downloadable before the next stage runs.

Investment Analysis
Pull market data, build a thesis, stress test assumptions, write the memo. Save named pipeline versions for different asset classes or deal types.

Content & Publishing
Research a topic, write the narrative, apply editorial standards, ship. Your process, running while you do something else.

Turn discovery sessions into structured requirements, specs, and technical docs. Update the input and re-run — the methodology stays locked.

Market Analysis

Your keys. Your models.
Your process.

Foundry runs on your API keys. Configure every stage independently — the pipeline runs exactly as designed, every cost visible, nothing marked up.

BYOK
Your keys. Their rates. No middleman.
Connect your Anthropic and Perplexity keys. Your provider bills you at published rates. Foundry charges a flat subscription and nothing else.

Named Pipelines
Your methodology, saved.
Name pipelines after what they do. Run the same workflow on new inputs without rebuilding it. Change one stage — everything else stays intact.

Lenses
Context that travels with every run.
A lens carries your methodology, audience, or framework into every stage automatically — no copy-paste, no repetition.
Analytics
Know exactly what you’re spending.
Token count, cost per stage, total per run — for every pipeline you’ve built, so you can optimize based on real data.

Your first pipeline in 5 minutes
Connect your keys, add stages, write a prompt, and run. That's the whole setup.
Pipelines
How stages pass output to each other
Stage sequencing, context flow, and how to design a pipeline for any kind of work.
Models
Picking the right model for each stage
Which model fits research, analysis, writing, and verification — and what each choice costs.
