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.
