Common questions

Why does my company need AI if we're managing fine without it?

You may be managing, but at what cost? Staff hours go into searching files, copying data between systems and rebuilding the same reports every month. AI takes over that repetitive work so your team can focus on clients, decisions and growth. We start small, with one clear problem, so you see the value before investing more.

How can AI training help my company grow?

Most teams already have AI tools but use only a fraction of what they can do, or avoid them because of privacy worries. Our training shows your people how to use AI safely for writing, research, analysis and reporting, with your own tools and policies. The result is faster work, fewer mistakes, better decisions and a team that is ready for what comes next.

Why do I need the AK Research Agent if I already have reports?

Reports answer the questions someone planned in advance. When a new question comes up, teams still run into the same problems:

• Not centralized: data and documents are spread across systems, folders and spreadsheets.
• Not on time: answers wait for the next report run or for someone to find time.
• A lot of effort: staff dig through files and combine numbers by hand.
• Needs IT knowledge: new questions often need someone who knows SQL or the reporting tool.

The AK Research Agent brings your documents and data together in one place. Anyone can ask a question in plain English and get an answer in seconds, with sources. It works alongside your reports, not instead of them.

What is an AI agent?

An AI that can take steps on its own: search your files, query a database, check the web, and combine the results into an answer or a completed task, rather than just chatting.

How is this different from Copilot or ChatGPT?

Those tools work best on clean files in one place. We handle large archives, scanned documents and spreadsheets, give exact numbers, cite every source, and run inside your own cloud.

What if the AI gets something wrong?

Every answer shows its sources, so anyone can check it in seconds. The agent is built to say when the answer isn't in your data rather than guess, and our support plan includes regular accuracy checks.

Why is the online demo slower than a real deployment?

The public demo runs on a small shared server without a graphics processor (GPU), to keep it private and low-cost. For clients, we size the system to your needs, usually with a GPU server in your environment or a managed AI service, so answers come back in seconds. Speed is something we measure and agree on during the pilot.

How long does a full rollout take?

Most organizations start with a short pilot on one collection of documents or data. A full rollout typically follows in 8–12 weeks, depending on volume and how many documents are scanned.

Who maintains it after launch?

We do. A monthly support plan covers monitoring, new documents, fixes and regular accuracy checks.
