_Security intake_

# Know everything that needs a review. Skip the 300-question form.

Clearly AI starts security intake from the work your teams already do: Jira tickets, pull requests, design docs, and a quick conversation when that's easier. Security finds out what's new or changing, the business only answers what their docs can't, and every review starts with the context already gathered.

## Security can only review what it knows about

Most intake starts with a long questionnaire, sometimes hundreds of questions, before a review can begin. Answers come back incomplete. Security follows up, the business follows up, and a week later the review still hasn't started. Teams that find the process painful can skip it entirely, so new features, vendors, and major changes reach production without security ever hearing about them.

## Intake has two jobs

**1. Know what's new, what's changing, and what needs review.** New products, new features, major changes, new vendors, and new use cases for existing vendors. The list goes on, because the business never stops building. If security doesn't hear about it, it doesn't get reviewed.

**2. Get the right information from the business and developers.** Enough context to run a real assessment, collected once, without chasing anyone down.

Intake shouldn't be a 300-question form. It shouldn't take endless back and forth between the business and security. Clearly AI is built to do both jobs without either.

## One platform, every path in

Most security teams need more than one kind of intake. Engineering changes can trigger from Jira and GitHub. Business teams can use the chat front door to bring in a new vendor. Regulated launches can keep the ServiceNow form. Every path lands in the same review queue, runs against the same templates, and shares the same audit trail.

## Choose how much you ask of the business

Ways you can automate intake:

### Step 1: Triggered from existing work

_Business lift: none beyond their normal work_

A new Jira ticket, an opened pull request, or a ServiceNow change request can kick off intake automatically. Your team sets up workflows that decide what each trigger starts. Or kick off intake from a custom app your team built in Microsoft Power Apps. For example, a pull request can kick off a continuous threat modeling review, while a new Jira ticket runs triage first and then a secure design review. Clearly AI gathers context from the ticket, code, and linked docs, and runs the review. Nobody fills anything out.

**Best for:** engineering changes that already live in tickets and repos

### Step 2: A conversational front door

_Business lift: a short conversation_

Give the business one clear place to bring anything security related, right in Slack, Microsoft Teams, or a web portal. Clearly AI asks what they're building or buying and follows up only on what matters for that change. It then picks the right review template, like a threat model, vendor risk assessment, privacy impact assessment, or AI risk review. It kicks that review off in Clearly AI or opens it as a ticket in Jira or ServiceNow.

**Best for:** new vendors, teams outside engineering, and "does this need a security review?" questions

### Step 3: Document-powered intake

_Business lift: paste a few links_

The business shares links to what already exists: design docs, tickets, repos, vendor documentation. Clearly AI reads them, drafts the intake answers with sources cited, and asks only about the gaps.

**Best for:** major launches and vendor onboarding where documentation already exists

### Step 4: Structured forms with conditional follow-ups

_Business lift: fill out a form_

Keep the ServiceNow or Jira intake forms your team already runs, conditional follow-ups included. Each submission flows into Clearly AI, which uses the answers as review context and starts the assessment.

**Best for:** regulated workflows and high-risk changes where a specific form is required

## Intake that starts the review, not a new round of questions

Intake is only the first step. Clearly AI's enterprise context graph links the design docs, repos, tickets, and policies behind each system, so the review starts with findings pre-populated, sources cited, and gaps flagged. Your engineers step in where judgment is needed, not to chase down context.

## The front door that doesn’t slow anyone down

- **100%** of new features triaged and threat modeled
- **85%** of assessment portions automated
- **~90%** reduction in time per review

> “As soon as we started using Clearly AI, we saw an immediate reduction in the amount of time that not only my team was spending on the reviews, but that the business owners were actually spending having to give us the answers for the assessments.”

_FAQ_

## Answers to your top questions

### What is security intake?

Security intake is how a security team learns that something new needs review, like a new product, feature, major change, or vendor, and collects the information needed to assess it. Good intake catches every change that needs review without burying the business in questions.

[Learn more on how Clearly AI handles conversational intake](https://clearly-ai.com/platform/conversational-intake)

### How do you automate security intake?

Start intake from activity that already happens. Clearly AI can kick off intake from Jira tickets, pull requests, and ServiceNow change requests, draft intake answers from existing design docs and vendor documentation, and handle the rest through a conversational front door or your existing intake forms.

### Does Clearly AI replace our ServiceNow or Jira intake forms?

No. You can keep the forms you already run, including conditional follow-up questions. Submissions flow into Clearly AI as review context, and you can add lower-lift intake paths alongside them.

### Does the business have to learn a new tool?

No. Most intake happens in tools teams already use, like Jira, GitHub, and ServiceNow. When a conversation is easier, the chat front door asks only what the existing artifacts don't answer.

[See the full list of integrations](https://clearly-ai.com/integrations)

### Is automated intake the same as continuous monitoring?

No. Clearly AI doesn't watch your systems or dashboards. It starts a point-in-time review when something new ships or changes, triggered from your existing tools or started on demand.

### What kinds of reviews can intake start?

Any review your team runs on Clearly AI: threat models, privacy impact assessments, vendor risk assessments, AI risk reviews, and compliance control evaluations.
