What Chronity Connect is

Chronity Connect is an AI compliance platform for RICS-regulated surveying practices in the United Kingdom. It sits quietly alongside the AI your surveyors already use and produces the compliance record the RICS AI Standard requires — without anyone having to stop and fill anything in.

The one-sentence version

Your surveyors carry on using Claude to do their work. Chronity produces the defensible audit trail in the background.

The slightly longer version

Anthropic's Claude — running as Claude Cowork on your firm's Microsoft 365 — gives your people an AI assistant connected to their Outlook, calendar, and files. That side is about getting work done, and Chronity doesn't try to compete with it.

Chronity does the part Anthropic doesn't: it captures every AI-assisted action, classifies it against your firm's signed Material Impact Assessment, and auto-drafts the written reliability decisions the Standard expects for material work. It then keeps the training records, the quarterly dip-sample, the risk register, and the supplier due-diligence pack that an auditor will ask to see.

There is no sign-off queue to keep on top of and no confirmation box to click. The act of a surveyor sending work out under their own name is the professional sign-off. Chronity observes that and writes it up afterwards.

What you actually get

  • An observation pipeline that records every Chronity-handled AI action, encrypted, the moment it happens. See How it works.
  • Classification against your own signed taxonomy — your firm's Material Impact Assessment, not a generic ruleset, decides what counts as material. See the Glossary for taxonomy, track, and sensitivity.
  • Auto-drafted reliability file notes — a first-person note naming the responsible surveyor, for every formal (Track 1) deliverable.
  • Awareness without workload — a daily digest, a portal dashboard, and real-time alerts for the rare exceptions. None of them require an action.
  • The governance artefacts — quarterly dip-sampling, an editable quarterly risk register, training-acknowledgement tracking, and a downloadable due-diligence pack.

Who it's for

Chronity Connect is built for RICS-regulated firms of roughly 5 to 100 people — chartered surveyors, land agents, valuers, building and quantity surveyors — running Microsoft 365 and Claude Cowork. The buyer is usually the partner or director carrying AI-lead responsibility; the decision is a compliance one, not a productivity one.

It is priced at £10 per user per month, billed by seat, with a 14-day free trial and no per-token charges.

Who does what

There are three audiences for this documentation, and three guides to match:

  • Every fee-earner is a user — read the User guide.
  • Whoever invites the team and runs the firm's settings is a tenant admin — read the Tenant-admin guide as well.
  • The partner who signs the firm's Material Impact Assessment and owns the quarterly governance is the AI Lead — read the AI Lead reference on top of the other two.

Roles are explained in full under Roles & who sees what.

Where to go next

If you only read two more pages, make them The RICS AI Standard — why any of this is necessary — and How it works — how Chronity produces the record. The Glossary defines every term the guides rely on; keep it open in a second tab.

Throughout this documentation the worked examples use a fictional firm, Harper & Drummond, chartered surveyors and land agents of Mere, Wiltshire. Harper & Drummond, its people, and its matters are invented for illustration. No real client data appears anywhere in these guides.
