Choosing to integrate Artificial Intelligence into your business is a major strategic decision. Just as important is choosing the right technology partner to guide you. The Kenyan market has many companies claiming AI expertise, but a true partner goes beyond just selling software. They become an extension of your team, dedicated to your success.
A good AI partner doesn't just deliver code; they deliver results.
Key Questions to Ask a Potential AI Partner
Before committing, arm yourself with the right questions. Here’s what you should ask any potential AI company in Kenya:
A proven track record is everything. Ask for examples of AI projects they have completed for businesses similar to yours in size or industry.
Many 'AI companies' just resell generic software. A true partner will understand your unique challenges and build a solution tailored specifically to your workflow.
The project isn't over at launch. Ask about their process for training your team, providing ongoing support, and handling future updates.
This is non-negotiable. Ensure they have a robust framework for handling your sensitive business and customer data securely.
