How to Integrate AI into Existing Software

Most companies do not need a greenfield AI platform. They need narrow features with measurable ROI.
Find the bottleneck
Start where staff spend hours on classification, summarization or copy-paste between systems.

Feature flags
Ship to a cohort, measure time saved and error rates, then expand.
Data contracts
Define which fields may leave your VPC, retention windows and redaction rules before connecting models.
