Key quotes
Enterprise demand for Claude is significantly outpacing any single delivery model.
Companies from community banks to mid-sized manufacturers and regional health systems stand to gain from AI, but lack the in-house resources to build and run frontier deployments.
A typical engagement starts with a small team working closely with the customer to understand where Claude can have the biggest impact.
