Ingest

An Upload Library that does the reading

Drop in PDFs, spreadsheets, Word docs, and slide decks. Diligio Respond reads each file and extracts question-and-answer pairs automatically. Review and approve them in a side-by-side annotator, and every approved pair publishes straight into your Knowledge Base, ready to reuse.

One source of truth

A controlled, authoritative Knowledge Base.

Diligio Respond pairs a human-curated reference library with automated questionnaire drafting. Centralise your past proposals, compliance documentation, and security questionnaires in one workspace where every answer is anchored to a source document you control, never a black-box guess.

Diligio Respond Knowledge Base: searchable, reviewed question-and-answer entries with AI confidence scores
Ask anything

An AI chat agent for your whole company.

No setup, no agent to build. Anyone in your company can ask a question in plain language and get an answer drawn from your approved Knowledge Base.

  • Approved entries only. Answers come only from entries your team has reviewed. If the library does not cover a question, the chat says so rather than inventing an answer.
  • Every sentence cites its source. Inline View Source links open the exact entry, so anyone can verify a claim before repeating it to a customer.

Agent-ready

Bring your own AI agent.

Connect your own AI agent over MCP or our REST API and let it work: searching your Knowledge Base, drafting answers, and moving projects forward. Your agent runs on your models and your tokens; Diligio Respond retrieves and records.

  • Bound by your RBAC. An agent can never exceed the permissions of the person who created it, re-checked live on every request.
  • Two access levels. Read-only knowledge-base search, or full access that mirrors the user's own role.
  • On by switch, fully audited. Off until you turn it on per workspace and per user. Every agent action is logged, with an instant kill switch.

From the people using Diligio

Early teams putting Diligio to work on their RFPs, due diligence, and security questionnaires, with verified reviews on G2 and Capterra.

Every new partnership came with a pile of due diligence forms we used to dread. Diligio drafts the answers from documents we already trust, so a week of work now takes an afternoon.

I can see the exact document behind every answer, so a review that used to take hours now takes minutes. It writes the first draft and I stay in control of what actually goes out.

What won me over is that it will not invent answers. If something is not backed by our own documentation, Diligio holds it back instead of guessing, which is exactly what you want before you sign off a security questionnaire.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

How does Diligio Respond actually answer a questionnaire?

It retrieves the relevant passages from your own knowledge base, drafts each answer grounded strictly in those sources, and independently verifies every claim before it reaches you. You review a first draft that already carries the evidence behind it, edit where you want to, and send. The work that used to take a week takes an afternoon because the drafting and the sourcing happen together.

Will it make answers up if it cannot find one?

No. Diligio verifies every claim against your sources and withholds anything weakly supported instead of guessing, so a low-confidence answer is held back for a person rather than shipped as a confident-sounding fabrication. That is the whole point of the independent verification step, and it is what makes the output safe to send to a buyer before you have signed off every line.

Which formats can it read, and what does it write into?

It ingests PDF, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, so however a buyer sent the questionnaire and however your knowledge lives, it goes in. It writes answers straight back into the buyer's original spreadsheet or document, preserving the structure, and exports to the formats your reviewers and your buyers expect.

Does it handle security questionnaires like SIG, CAIQ, and VSAQ?

Yes. The same grounded-drafting loop handles the standard security questionnaires alongside RFPs and DDQs, reusing the approved answers from your knowledge base so a control question you have already answered well is not re-written from scratch each time. If you also run Diligio Compliance, the controls and evidence behind those answers are the same ones powering your posture.

Is my data used to train your models?

No. Your documents and your answers are your intellectual property; they are never used to train shared models. The system grounds answers in your sources at request time and carries provenance back to the exact document, but your content does not leave the boundary of your tenant to improve anyone else's results.

Can I bring my own AI agent?

Yes. Diligio Respond speaks MCP and plain REST, so an agent you already run can drive the same drafting and verification loop, bounded by your RBAC and behind a token you mint and can revoke instantly. The built-in agent does the same job on Diligio's models if you would rather not run your own; both routes are included in the standard price.

Do I need Diligio Compliance to use it?

No. Diligio Respond is a standalone product you can buy on its own. If you also run Diligio Compliance, the two share one knowledge base, so the approved answers that win your deals also power your compliance posture, and the work compounds instead of doubling.

Diligio Compliance does your ISO 27001 and SOC 2 for you, on the very knowledge base that answers your questionnaires: an agent does the work, a human certifies. A separate product at a flat $1,999 / year.
