Additionally, maintaining optimal performance and accuracy of its generative AI capabilities, especially in complex tasks like background removal on Stibo, has demanded continuous refinement and training. These challenges underscore our commitment to innovation and collaboration, as we work towards maximizing AuxiBot's potential in enhancing productivity and user experience across OfficeMax.

05 — Testimonial
“The biggest game-changer recently has been the introduction of RPA and AI. Managing our 40,000 active SKUs used to be a time-consuming process, taking weeks. Now, we're getting products web-ready in mere hours! We're also using this data to create smaller RPNAI solutions that help sales teams recommend the best products, validate customer-visible data, and soon, launch a new NLP chatbot to revolutionize our website search. I'm thrilled to say OMX NZ won the AI Innovator of the Year award at the Stibo Connect 24 conference. A massive thank you to our brilliant build partner Duco Consultancy for turning crazy into reality. Their passion for data and willingness to challenge the status quo has helped reshape our entire master data process.”
