How Does It Work?
Your account = Blockbrain's access
Blockbrain acts on your behalf using your existing Teams permissions:
You can only see teams, channels, chats, and files you normally have access to
If you can't find or open something in Teams directly, Blockbrain can't either
Your permissions stay exactly the same — nothing changes
Safe and secure by design
Your files remain in your Teams channels, OneDrive, or SharePoint
Blockbrain only reads or updates content when you specifically ask it to
All activity is logged in your organization's audit trail
Example Conversation
You: "List all channels in the Product team"
Blockbrain: "Here are the channels in the Product team:
General
Roadmap
Launch Planning
Feedback
Which channel would you like to explore?"
You: "Show me the last 5 messages in the Launch Planning channel"
Blockbrain: "Here are the last 5 messages in the Launch Planning channel:
Anna (Mon, 09:14): "Can we confirm the go-live date by EOD?"
Tom (Mon, 09:22): "Yes — targeting May 20. I'll update the tracker."
Anna (Mon, 09:25): "Great, I'll notify the stakeholders."
Lena (Mon, 10:01): "Press release draft is ready for review."
Tom (Mon, 10:15): "On it — will send feedback this afternoon."
Would you like me to summarize these or extract any action items?"
