Years ago, I wondered what a computing machine would need to be genuinely creative—to truly “think” outside the box. At the time, this was purely theoretical; computers were still using punch cards, and the technology simply didn’t exist.

We’ve developed a new AI technology. One that’s entirely business-focused and capable of delivering deep analysis of marketing strategies and operational insights. What once required months of work can now be accomplished with unprecedented speed and efficiency.
