AI growth
- How much does it cost to add AI to a business?AI costs for a business fall into three parts: tool subscriptions, usually small, the work to design and connect the system, which is the main cost, and ongoing running and supervision.

AI automation

AI agents
- AI agents vs chatbots: the difference that matters for operationsA chatbot answers questions from a script or knowledge base. An AI agent can also take actions across your systems within rules you set: creating records, booking slots, escalating cases. The difference matters when the job requires doing something, not just replying.
- What is an AI agent, and does your business need one?An AI agent is software built around a language model that is given tools, context and guardrails to carry out a specific multi-step task on a business's behalf: retrieving information, making a decision within set rules, and taking an action.
