Every industry, every angle.
Reference table of the 30 council configurations and the kinds of contradictions each is good at catching.
How to pick
The industry setting on a workspace controls which four analysts sit on the council that reviews your meetings and asks. Each industry council is a fixed set of personas tuned to a domain, a Healthcare council weighs claims about dosage, contraindication and standard of care; a Construction council weighs schedule, scope and change-order language. The right pick is usually obvious: choose the council whose vocabulary and failure modes most closely match the conversations you are recording. If you sit at the intersection of two domains, a healthcare M&A deal, say, or a defense procurement audit, pick the council that maps to the risk side of the conversation rather than the subject matter. The point of the council is to catch what people would otherwise miss; bias toward the analyst who would have caught it.
You can switch industries per workspace, not per session. If you handle distinct practice areas, run them as separate workspaces, that keeps memory, members and council selection cleanly partitioned.

Custom councils (Enterprise)
The 30 presets cover the great majority of conversations our customers record, but they are presets, they sit on top of a general council engine that can seat any four personas you define. On Enterprise plans we will work with you to build a custom council: you supply the four role definitions (title, domain expertise, the kinds of claims this person would push back on, the failure modes they would catch) and we tune a persona prompt for each, validate it against a redacted sample of your conversations, and ship it as a private council scoped to your workspaces. Custom councils are versioned and signed into the attestation chain the same way the presets are, so a downstream verifier can confirm which council reviewed which session.
Typical custom-council asks: a public-defender council distinct from the general Legal preset; an FDA Advisory-Committee shadow council; a hospital system’s own peer-review committee; a private-equity diligence council with sector specialists.
