What businesses actually do with it
- 01Put an AI agent on the repetitive, rules-shaped work — quoting, triage, data entry, follow-ups.
- 02Ground answers in your own documents and systems, with sources, instead of a model's best guess.
- 03Keep a human approve-before-send gate wherever the stakes are real.
- 04Measure it the only way that matters — hours given back and dollars saved.
Adoption is already well ahead of the curve in leading markets — Singapore sits at 5.53× and Australia at 4.11×. The edge goes to whoever turns that into one concrete, in-production workflow first.
