Frequently asked questions

How long does deployment take?

First production flow ships in 6 to 12 weeks. Coverage scales to 80 percent autonomy within 6 to 9 months on disciplined deployments. New countries and channels add in days, not months.

How is the program measured day to day?

Three numbers carry the program: autonomy rate (share executed without human touch), first-time-right rate (share correct on the first pass), and cost per order. Cycle time and exception volume sit underneath.

Who owns it inside the organization?

Operations and IT co-own. The business case sits with the CFO, the architecture with the CIO, and the day-to-day outcomes with customer service and sales. The AI engineering is vendor responsibility, not a customer build.
