62% of insight teams use AI.

But very few can confidently prove impact. Here's why.

icon Missing intention

AI is everywhere in the workflow, but the link to time saved, lower cost or better quality stays fuzzy.

icon Tool-first thinking

Teams chase impressive features before defining the outcome that actually matters to the business.

icon Trust and quality risk

Hallucinations and shallow output erode confidence faster than speed gains can build it.

icon Skills lagging tools
