# Welcome to Nex

> Developer documentation and API reference for Nex — the workflow execution and context layer for AI-native business operations

## What is Nex

Nex is where AI workflows become reliable business software — the workflow execution and context layer for AI-native business operations. It connects the tools where work actually happens — WhatsApp, email, Slack, meeting transcripts, support tickets, product events — into a single knowledge graph per workspace. AI agents use that graph as ground truth to answer natural-language queries and run workflows.

The REST API lets you ingest context, query it, and wire your own agents into the same substrate Nex itself runs on.

## Building blocks

The API exposes the primitives that make up the context graph: the schema of your entities, the records that populate it, the relationships between them, the context you ingest, and the intelligence layer that compounds it over time.
