The Brain · The control plane
Keep the brain true.
Your control plane is where your team keeps the brain true and decides who sees what: the feeds, the definitions, the checks, the models, the access, the connector, and every action on the record. On its own host, behind its own permissions, and structurally unable to write what the brain believes.
01 · What your team holds
Feeds, definitions, models, access.
FeedsEvery feed, its runs, and where each one is up to. A broken feed never holds another hostage, and you see it the morning it breaks.
DefinitionsWhat every measure means, in your words: net revenue, active customer, planned quantity. Every model, agent and tool computes from the same definition, and a metric nobody has defined is refused.
MeaningsWhat every field means, stated in a contract, or read with a model’s judgement where the meaning is not obvious.
ModelsWhich AI provider and model runs each tier of work, and your own keys if you want them.
AccessGroups, what each may use, and each person's clearance. Documents above a person's clearance are never returned.
ProductsWhich products this deployment has, and whether each is on.
Your team uses it from the first day, and takes on more of it as it goes.
02 · What you see
Everything on the record.
What was loaded and when. The checks that ran overnight and their verdicts. What the brain knows it does not know, ranked. Every run, every model call, every cost and every action, across Meridian and the connector: who, what, when.
03 · In and out
How data arrives, and what leaves.
How data arrivesFeeds from your systems, one-off loads of documents and archives, files handed over, and connections built to fit the systems you run. Every row lands with where it came from and when, and nothing is overwritten.
The connectorWhich apps may connect, which roles may use it, every active connection, and an off switch that takes effect within a minute.
What leavesAn answer goes to the app or channel that asked, under its provider's terms. An action leaves your company only in the ways you allow, whether an email, an entry in the ERP or anything else you connect, each on standing approval or with a person’s yes.
