PortalBase's Ask now answers from training videos, down to the moment

Ask a question in plain words and get the answer from the company's own training videos, with the moment cited. Tap it and the video plays from there.

FORT WORTH, Texas, October 21, 2026. Ask, PortalBase's assistant, now answers from a company's training videos as well as its documents. A worker types a question in plain words, like what the paddle signals video says about flagging at night, and gets a short answer with the video and the moment it comes from.

Tap the source and the video plays from that moment. The worker doesn't have to scrub through a 20 minute video to find the 40 seconds they need.

Ask answers only from the company's own documents and videos, and only from what that person is allowed to see. Every answer shows where it came from.

"The answer's usually already in a training video. Now people can find it," said Calvin Titus, CEO of PortalBase.

About PortalBase

PortalBase is one system for the people who do the work: store teams, hotel staff, plant operators, warehouse crews, construction and field service.

Training, forms, inspections, safety records and corrective actions live in one app on the phone your people already carry. It works with no signal and syncs when they're back in range. Leads, admins and executives work from the same records on the web.

PortalBase is AI-native. Describe a form, a training or a workflow and get a draft to review, then publish it. Your people ask questions in plain words and get answers from your own documents and training videos, with the page or the moment cited. It connects to Claude, ChatGPT and Microsoft 365 Copilot, and it acts only as the person who signed in.

Every training, signature, inspection and fix is on the record, ready for an audit, a client or an inspector.
