If you're hearing that people in your company are using AI - but you aren't seeing business value - you might be in an AI Use Case Desert. Our research shows that only 10% of AI users have ROI-generating use cases. Most of us are using AI to summarize meeting notes. Nice for the individual, but not transformative for the business. Today we're launching a game-changing new module in ProfAI to solve this problem: the Use Case Coach. The Use Case Coach helps your team discover, build, and share great use cases, highly personalized to their role. You get: ⭐ ROI-generating use cases for every member of your team ⭐ Step-by-step guidance to implement use cases ⭐ Visibility into who's creating use cases and which ones are taking off ⭐ Shareability across teams, so employees learn from each other and don't duplicate discovery If you're an AI leader, the Use Case Coach will be an essential part of your deployment toolbox. Check it out at prof.ai - or schedule a demo with our team to see the full enterprise experience (link in comments).
