Users want you to step it up

The AI era has us all asking more of users. This has caused employees to speed up their adoption of AI faster than their organizations can keep up.

The goal is to increase engagement with high-performing users and meet their AI needs before users have to act on their own.

91% 13%

91% of employees surveyed say they use generative AI at work, and only 13% said that the companies they work for have fully implemented AI.1

Keeping these high-performing employees engaged is becoming increasingly difficult, but also increasingly important. Organizations with more engaged employees have seen 23% higher profits than their competitors, driven by less absenteeism, turnover, shrinkage, safety incidents, and errors -- combined with higher productivity and customer loyalty.2

80% of AI users bring their own tools to work.3
Currently, 80% of AI users bring their own tools to work, creating security issues and missing opportunities to take advantage of centralized, scalable, cutting-edge AI tools for teams.3 Organizations are discovering that if they want the best performance from their users, they have to equip their users to be their best.
