Before the 30-minute conversation
Direct answers to the questions that come up most often. For anything not covered here, book a call or write directly.
What is F7 KORE in one sentence?
The platform that brings the operation's knowledge together — documents, forms, tasks, processes, ERP data — and puts an AI, Kris, to work with it: builds the technical proposal, catches the error the moment it appears, notices what was left undone. Not just search — execution. Every action stays recorded and audit-ready.
Which operational problems does KORE attack?
The five that weigh most on mid-to-large industry: low operational productivity (manual work locked in expensive people), rework and nonconformities (the error caught after it already cost), lack of traceability (nobody can prove who did what, when), disconnected systems and data (ERP, spreadsheets and WhatsApp that don't talk to each other) and regulatory compliance risk (audits that become a task force). The mechanism is the same in all of them: Kris does the work with the company's knowledge and leaves every step recorded. Results show up in the indicators leadership measures — cost, quality, cycle time and auditability.
Which industry sectors and areas does KORE serve?
Sectors: food & beverage, chemicals and pharma, machinery and equipment, metalwork, agroindustry and engineer-to-order — mid-to-large operations running shifts and plants. Inside the company, KORE lands first where judgment is expensive: engineering and quoting, production/operations, quality, procurement and maintenance. The mechanism is the same everywhere — what changes is which process you attack first.
Who is behind F7 KORE?
F7 Tecnologia Ltda. is the company, headquartered in Jaraguá do Sul/SC, Brazil. Built by Fabio Silva — automating industry since 2007, more than 19 years of practice. The house behind KORE has automated industry for over a decade — previously operating as Dynamique (rebranded to F7 KORE in 2025), with cases including Degraus, Cervejaria Proibida and Quinabra. KORE is the leap that base made when we rebuilt the platform for AI to act inside the operation.
How does F7 KORE run — on my server or in the cloud?
Both, and you choose. On your server: the platform runs inside your company and your data is stored on your premises. The only thing that leaves is the AI query — it goes to the model provider (Anthropic) at the moment of use, and content sent through the API is not used to train models. In the cloud, managed by F7: every customer has their own environment, kept separate from the others, in a region defined by contract. Both models are recurring monthly fees.
How does KORE connect to the system I already run?
Through an adapter running in the Connect Agent, inside your perimeter, speaking whatever protocol your system already exposes — API, database, file or queue. No credential leaves your company. For the main systems used in Brazil, mapping for the common registries ships ready; for the others it fits within the implementation timeline, with no separate charge. The same applies to CRM, shop-floor machines and sensors, and quality and maintenance systems. See what is already mapped and the technical detail at /integrations.
Does my operational data leave my company?
If it runs on your server, no — F7 doesn't even access it, except for explicitly contracted and audited support. In the cloud, the data sits in an environment that's yours alone, in a region agreed in contract (default Brazil), under a specific data-protection agreement. In either case, F7 does not sell or share data.
Does the system work when the internet is down?
Depends on the model. On your server: the operation keeps running. Everything runs inside your company; forms, tasks, integration with the local ERP and the history don't stop. What needs internet is only Kris's AI part (which calls an external model) — when the network is back, what queued up is processed in order, with no loss. In the cloud: the platform needs internet to respond; what the operator records at the local terminal queues up and syncs when the network is back.
How long does deployment take?
Paid POC in 6-12 weeks — 1 critical process, 1-2 modules, success criteria defined in the initial conversation. Full rollout in 3-6 months for a mid-sized operation with 4-5 modules active and 2-3 ERP integrations. Enterprise rollout (multiple plants, full modules, dedicated SLA) operates in quarterly phases with a 9-18 month horizon. In all models, value enters partial production starting in weeks 8-12 — no big-bang one year from now.
How does support work? SLA?
Support comes straight from the team that builds the product — no outsourced layer in between. On your server: F7 accesses the customer's environment only under contracted and audited windows (every access is recorded in KORE's own history). In the cloud: F7 operates the platform; the customer follows the SLA via an internal panel. Standard B2B SLA: response in 4 business hours for normal incidents, 1 hour for critical issues that halt the operation. Enterprise contracts customize window and response time. Updates are continuous in the cloud; on your server, quarterly cycles coordinated with the customer.
Does KORE help with the skilled-labor shortage and shorter shift schedules?
It's the pain KORE attacks head-on. Fewer qualified people and fewer scheduled hours mean one thing: producing more in fewer hours. KORE takes the manual work off your team — building the document, double-checking the form, typing the record, chasing the pending item — and gives that time back to production and decisions. The same team delivers more, without cutting anyone from the payroll. The full reasoning is on the blog.
Does Kris replace people?
No. Kris multiplies the judgment of those who understand the operation best. The senior person stops executing manual work (building proposals, double-checking each form) and shifts to reviewing and deciding. Their judgment, once locked at one desk, now pays off across the whole operation. In a scenario of skilled-labor shortage and shorter shifts, that's how the same team produces more in fewer hours — without cutting anyone from the payroll.
What happens when a specialist retires or leaves the company?
Today, the knowledge leaves with them — the quote only they knew how to build, the adjustment only they knew how to make. In KORE, judgment stays recorded where the work happens: procedure lives inside the real conversation, Kris applies that judgment across the whole operation, and newcomers learn in the flow, with proof of reading on the documents that matter. A person leaving stops meaning the knowledge leaving. More on the blog.
How does KORE help with audits and regulatory compliance?
Every action on the platform — by a person or by Kris — lands in an automatic trail: who did it, what, when, under which permission. Controlled documents carry versioning, approval and proof of reading (end-to-end document traceability), and the Norms module keeps a radar of the regulations the company must meet, with each one's adherence. In practice: the evidence is already there when the auditor arrives. Audits stop becoming a task force.
How much does it cost?
Recurring monthly fee under contract — not a one-off perpetual sale.
Composition: base license + number of active users + modules enabled (each module has weight) + deployment model (on your server there's a setup fee; in the cloud there isn't) + contracted SLA level.
The initial 30-min conversation is free and exists to close these parameters.

How do I get started?
Book a 30-minute call. In it, we map which process in your operation is locked in one head, and define the scope of a paid POC with clear success criteria over 6-12 weeks. If the POC delivers what was promised, it becomes a contract; if not, you keep the learning and F7 gets feedback on what to adjust — with no hard feelings either way.
