SmartSuite is an AI-native work platform that connects the workflows that run your business. Think of SmartSuite as a Work Operating System (Work OS)—a unified foundation for data, automation, AI, permissions, integrations, and reporting that helps teams build, manage, and scale work across the organization. Most teams start with a single workflow—then expand as they see the power of connected work across departments. SmartSuite makes it easy to standardize processes, assign clear ownership, automate follow-through, and gain real-time visibility from leadership dashboards down to the details in every record. SmartSuite includes purpose-built solution suites across four core areas: • Governance, Risk, Compliance & Resilience — unify risk, compliance, audit, third-party risk, operational resilience, business continuity, regulatory readiness, privacy, AI governance, and ESG. • IT Service Management (ITSM) — manage incidents, changes, requests, assets, and service operations, with direct connections to evidence, issues, and remediation. • Project & Portfolio Management — align teams on priorities, track execution across initiatives, and report progress against goals and OKRs in real time. • Business Operations — run processes across sales, marketing, product, operations, HR, finance, procurement, and more. With a modern UI and enterprise-grade governance, SmartSuite helps organizations replace spreadsheets and fragmented point tools with connected workflows, accountable execution, and measurable outcomes.
