# Welcome to Zeno

> An ERP-style workspace for operations teams that need module-specific workflows on top of one shared set of books.

Zeno is an ERP-style workspace for operators. Different teams can work in different modules, but they all share one Inbox, one contact layer, one document library, and one set of books underneath everything.

Drop a document into the **Inbox** and it's read, routed, and staged for review. From the same app you handle module work, assign tasks, message teammates, send emails, and keep the books current without re-entering the same data in separate systems.

## Modules

Each organization enables the operational modules it needs. **Books** is always on. Together they share the same workspace.

## Shared workspace

* **[Inbox](https://zenorent.com/docs/workflow/inbox.md)** — one place to upload every document. AI classifies, extracts, and routes it to the right module.
* **[AI Bookkeeper](https://zenorent.com/docs/ai-bookkeeper.md)** — ask questions and record simple transactions through chat.
* **[Zeno in Claude](https://zenorent.com/docs/zeno-mcp.md)** — the same books from Claude Desktop or Claude Code, working as you. Included in every plan.
* **[Contacts](https://zenorent.com/docs/workflow/contacts.md)** — every tenant, buyer, customer, and vendor in one list.
* **[Tasks](https://zenorent.com/docs/workflow/tasks.md)** — work tracking, recurring tasks, notes, and assignments.
* **[Reports](https://zenorent.com/docs/reports.md)** — balances, aging, cash flow, expense reporting, and a custom Report Builder.
* **[Chat](https://zenorent.com/docs/workflow/chat.md)** — internal team messaging inside the app.
* **[Emails](https://zenorent.com/docs/workflow/emails.md)** — shared email threads tied to records.
* **[Document Center](https://zenorent.com/docs/workflow/document-center.md)** — search filed documents across every module.
* **Live sync** — changes by you or a teammate appear everywhere without refresh.
* **Audit log** — every create, edit, and delete is recorded with the user and timestamp.

## Getting around

The **sidebar** shows the current module. Switch modules from the **mode pills** in the top bar.

Inside each module, the exact labels vary, but the layout follows a stable pattern:

| Sidebar item | What it is |
| - | - |
| **Dashboard** | Overview and quick actions for this module |
| **Core records** | The entities that define the module: properties, jobs, engagements, customers, and similar |
| **Receivable** | Money owed to you in modules that bill customers |
| **Payable** | Bills you receive in modules that track vendor costs |

Inbox, Chat, Reports, Contacts, Documents, Emails, Audit Log, and Settings are shared surfaces reachable from every module.
