By democratizing AI and placing its power in the hands of non-technical users, Yurts not only enhances efficiency but also cultivates a culture of innovation and collaboration. Positioned at the forefront of the GenAI landscape, Yurts invites organizations to reshape the future of work by harnessing the potential of AI assistants tailored to their unique needs and contexts.

“Every path but your own is the path of fate. Keep on your own track, then.” ― Henry David Thoreau, Walden

Generative AI (GenAI) has the potential to revolutionize the workplace. Studies from McKinsey1 and Harvard Business School2 suggest that GenAI could automate a significant portion of employees' time and boost performance across the board. Yet, despite the promise, many Fortune 2000 companies have been slow to adopt enterprise-wide GenAI solutions. What's held them back?

A key reason: the fragmented and piecemeal manner in how GenAI is introduced. Often, AI assistants lack access to users' actual data, and they operate in isolated organizational and application silos. Moreover, GenAI isn't always integrated into the critical components of a company's operations, which limits its potential impact. Additionally, most GenAI solutions are geared towards individual tasks rather than enhancing team productivity. This leaves many back-office functions and common tasks neglected, limiting potential productivity gains.

That's why we’re excited to announce Yurts AI Assistants. We believe it will address these key challenges head-on, with a specific focus on four key pain points for customers: (1) AI accessing your data, (2) AI native to your workflows and applications, (3) AI built for all of your teams, and (4) AI that’s easy for anyone to implement and use.

1. You have the data and the context you need

Yurts AI assistants are not just about accessing data – they're about understanding it deeply. Our solution goes beyond mere connectivity by comprehensively integrating data from various sources and applications. Whether it's customer information from your CRM, project details from your management tools, or financial data from your accounting software, Yurts AI assistants bring together disparate datasets to provide holistic insights. Our robust access control mechanisms ensure that sensitive information remains secure, granting access only to authorized personnel. With Yurts, your AI assistant becomes a veritable powerhouse of knowledge, empowering users with comprehensive and relevant data at their fingertips.

2. We go where you work

The average knowledge worker uses an astonishing ten different applications a day3. Most GenAI companies want to add additional applications for you to get access to GenAI — simply creating more application bloat and distractions.  

Instead, Yurts AI assistants are designed to seamlessly integrate into your existing applications, whether they're cutting-edge platforms or legacy systems. By embedding AI directly within your applications, we eliminate the need for users to switch between multiple interfaces. Our contextual embedding brings relevant information to the forefront, making it easier for users to make informed decisions within their familiar working environments. With Yurts, legacy applications become more than systems of records or relics – they become streamlined hubs of productivity.

3. Empower Your Teams

Productivity isn't just about individual performance – it's about collective success. Yurts understands the importance of teamwork, which is why our AI assistants are designed to facilitate collaboration across teams. With features that allow assistants to be shared among team members, Yurts fosters a culture of cooperation and knowledge-sharing. Our role-based access controls ensure that sensitive information is only accessible to those who need it, safeguarding confidentiality while promoting transparency. By empowering teams to work together more effectively, Yurts helps organizations achieve their goals with greater synergy and cohesion.

4. Unleash Your Enterprise Knowledge

Building AI assistants shouldn't be a privilege reserved for technical experts. With Yurts, we democratize AI by providing a user-friendly assistant builder that empowers individuals across departments to create customized assistants tailored to their unique requirements. Our intuitive interface makes it easy for non-technical users to design and deploy AI assistants without any coding knowledge. Additionally, our platform supports seamless integration with your brand identity, allowing you to customize assistants to match your company's style and tone. With Yurts, the power of AI is placed directly in the hands of those who know your business best, enabling organizations to leverage their enterprise knowledge to drive innovation and success.

In Conclusion

As we navigate the role of GenAI in the landscape of the future of work, we. must integrate these with the infrastructure and workflows of the present. As we look to the future, we will be presented with opportunities to reimagine the way we work. 

We are excited to be a part of the journey now for a growing number of commercial enterprises, the US National Security community, and US Government Agencies. Join us in shaping the future of work, one AI assistant at a time.
