Our methodology
The ROAI Framework stems from a combined decades of experience in AI. It cuts through technical complexity to align the core purpose of AI systems to the mission of an organization. Execution is considered across three primary pillars.
Strategic Alignment
Strategic alignment is a foundational enabler of a Return on AI. AI initiatives require concrete targets, support from leadership, reengineered technology processes, and an expansive set of technical supports.

Design
Impactful AI requires a unique interplay between business, technology, and social science challenges. The end user’s experience, and the ultimate success of an AI solution, is determined as much by the organization that built it as the data and algorithm used.

Optimization
Learning does not end with the machine. Ongoing testing, user training, change management and quantification of impact are critical to making the organizational and technical changes that ensure continued success.
