When people make business decisions they are doing so with these nuanced details layered into their process. This is why bespoke decision science is the key to making responsible and effective AI agents for organizations.<\/p>\n<p>But what does that actually look like? Let&#8217;s take time to look at how custom agentic systems, built with bespoke decision science, are driving real value for different parts of the organization.<\/p>\n<p>Real world examples:<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/section>\n<\/article>\n<h2>\n\t\t\tSales and Business Development\t<\/h2>\n\t<article id=\"sections\" data-page-sections=\"69aee8f8c3e98e63375f213e\">\n<section id=\"yui_3_17_2_1_1785764787861_80\" data-test=\"page-section\" data-section-theme=\"white\" data-section-id=\"69aee8f8c3e98e63375f2140\" data-controller=\"SectionWrapperController\" data-current-styles=\"{ &quot;imageOverlayOpacity&quot;: 0.15, &quot;backgroundWidth&quot;: &quot;background-width--full-bleed&quot;, &quot;sectionHeight&quot;: &quot;section-height--medium&quot;, &quot;customSectionHeight&quot;: 10, &quot;horizontalAlignment&quot;: &quot;horizontal-alignment--center&quot;, &quot;verticalAlignment&quot;: &quot;vertical-alignment--middle&quot;, &quot;contentWidth&quot;: &quot;content-width--wide&quot;, &quot;customContentWidth&quot;: 50, &quot;sectionTheme&quot;: &quot;white&quot;, &quot;sectionAnimation&quot;: &quot;none&quot;, &quot;backgroundMode&quot;: &quot;image&quot; }\" data-current-context=\"{ &quot;video&quot;: { &quot;playbackSpeed&quot;: 0.5, &quot;filter&quot;: 1, &quot;filterStrength&quot;: 0, &quot;zoom&quot;: 0, &quot;videoSourceProvider&quot;: &quot;none&quot; }, &quot;backgroundImageId&quot;: null, &quot;backgroundMediaEffect&quot;: null, &quot;divider&quot;: null, &quot;typeName&quot;: &quot;blog-side-by-side&quot; }\" data-animation=\"none\" data-sqsp-section=\"blog-item\" data-controllers-bound=\"SectionWrapperController\" data-active=\"true\">\n<article id=\"article-\">\nWe build agents with machine learning that predicts the next best customer (client) and prioritizes highest value opportunities. A human in the loop feedback mechanism is built allowing the agents to learn to prioritize company culture and human context in decision making. When\/If the AI agent falls short with a recommendation, the team provides feedback directly into the agent which allows for continued improvement and further alignment. Sales teams are able to shift the time spent in the past doing manual data hunting to making more impactful outreach and building meaningful customer relationships.\n<\/article>\n<\/section>\n<\/article>\n<h2>\n\t\t\tExecutive Insights\t<\/h2>\n\t<article id=\"sections\" data-page-sections=\"69aee8f8c3e98e63375f213e\">\n<section id=\"yui_3_17_2_1_1785764787861_80\" data-test=\"page-section\" data-section-theme=\"white\" data-section-id=\"69aee8f8c3e98e63375f2140\" data-controller=\"SectionWrapperController\" data-current-styles=\"{ &quot;imageOverlayOpacity&quot;: 0.15, &quot;backgroundWidth&quot;: &quot;background-width--full-bleed&quot;, &quot;sectionHeight&quot;: &quot;section-height--medium&quot;, &quot;customSectionHeight&quot;: 10, &quot;horizontalAlignment&quot;: &quot;horizontal-alignment--center&quot;, &quot;verticalAlignment&quot;: &quot;vertical-alignment--middle&quot;, &quot;contentWidth&quot;: &quot;content-width--wide&quot;, &quot;customContentWidth&quot;: 50, &quot;sectionTheme&quot;: &quot;white&quot;, &quot;sectionAnimation&quot;: &quot;none&quot;, &quot;backgroundMode&quot;: &quot;image&quot; }\" data-current-context=\"{ &quot;video&quot;: { &quot;playbackSpeed&quot;: 0.5, &quot;filter&quot;: 1, &quot;filterStrength&quot;: 0, &quot;zoom&quot;: 0, &quot;videoSourceProvider&quot;: &quot;none&quot; }, &quot;backgroundImageId&quot;: null, &quot;backgroundMediaEffect&quot;: null, &quot;divider&quot;: null, &quot;typeName&quot;: &quot;blog-side-by-side&quot; }\" data-animation=\"none\" data-sqsp-section=\"blog-item\" data-controllers-bound=\"SectionWrapperController\" data-active=\"true\">\n<article id=\"article-\">\nSimilarly, we build highly secure natural language chatbots (with the same human in the loop feedback mechanism) trained on the organizations own unique enterprise data to give leaders near instant insights to complex business questions.
