Our Journey

Here's a scene we kept seeing over and over: A marketing team member is crafting social posts using ChatGPT, while their colleague is using Claude for the same task but getting different results. The sales team is copying product specs directly into AI chats without any context about brand voice. Meanwhile, HR is nervous about using AI at all because they're unsure about data privacy. Sound familiar?

The Wild West of AI Usage

The rapid rise of AI has led to a peculiar situation in most companies. Everyone's using AI tools, but they're doing it in completely different ways:

• Marketing teams individually pasting brand guidelines into ChatGPT every single time they write content

• Customer support teams each maintaining their own "perfect prompts" in notepad files

• Product teams getting inconsistent results because everyone's using different AI tools with different instructions

• Teams accidentally sharing sensitive internal information through public AI interfaces

• Knowledge getting scattered across personal AI chat histories instead of being shared with the team

The result? Duplicated effort, inconsistent outputs, and a lot of wasted time reinventing the wheel.

The Real Costs of Unstructured AI Usage

This chaotic approach was creating real problems:

• Team members spending 15 minutes writing prompts for 5-minute tasks

• Inconsistent brand voice because everyone was using different instructions

• Important context and organizational knowledge staying trapped in personal chat histories

• No way to leverage internal documents and knowledge bases effectively

• Compliance teams struggling to track and control AI usage

• Successful prompts and workflows not being shared across teams

Why We Built Tools

This is exactly why we built Tools. We wanted to help teams transform their scattered AI experiments into structured, reusable workflows that:

1. Capture Organizational Knowledge

Instead of everyone writing their own prompts and instructions, teams can create standardized Tools that incorporate:

• Brand guidelines

• Product information

• Company policies

• Best practices

• Successful workflows

2. Make Success Repeatable

Once someone figures out the perfect way to generate a sales email or analyze customer feedback, they can turn it into a Tool that:

• Has clear input fields for the variables that matter

• Includes all necessary context and instructions

• Can be used by anyone on the team

• Delivers consistent results every time

3. Respect Business Boundaries

Tools provide a structured way to:

• Control what information goes to AI models

• Maintain data privacy

• Ensure compliance

• Track usage and results

Real World Impact

The difference is dramatic. Take a marketing team we work with:

• Before: Each team member spent 10-15 minutes setting up context in ChatGPT for every piece of content

• After: They fill out a few fields in a Tool that already has their brand voice, guidelines, and product details built in

Or a customer support team:

• Before: Everyone had their own "best prompts" saved in different places

• After: They share a set of Tools that incorporate their support policies, product details, and tone guidelines

What's Next

We're continuing to evolve Tools based on how teams actually work with AI. Our focus is on making it even easier to:

• Turn successful workflows into reusable Tools

• Share knowledge across teams

• Maintain consistency while allowing for creativity

• Track and improve results over time

The future of AI in business isn't about everyone individually chatting with AI models. It's about teams working together to create structured, reusable ways to leverage AI effectively.
