Frequently asked questions
Which industries get the most ROI from AI today?
Software, customer support, marketing, and legal lead by hours saved per worker. Healthcare, finance, and education have larger total opportunity but slower deployment due to regulation.
Can I use ChatGPT or Claude with patient or financial data?
With caveats. Both vendors offer enterprise plans with no-training guarantees and BAAs for HIPAA workloads. Don't use consumer plans for regulated data.
What's the difference between vertical AI and a custom build?
Vertical AI vendors ship faster and absorb compliance work. Custom builds give you full control over IP, data, and economics. Most teams start vertical, then internalize once the workflow is proven.
How does the EU AI Act affect industry deployments?
It introduces risk tiers — most internal productivity AI is low-risk, but anything touching credit, employment, education, biometrics, or critical infrastructure becomes high-risk.
