The new age of AI-fueled automation and experiences has reframed the Search value story, and the value of your work. Not long ago, search and automation tools were commodities, and improvement budgets were limited to only the top use cases. The rapid improvement of LLMs has radically changed the ROI model for search relevance though. Today, the long tail of use cases is within reach and the addition of agentic users is pushing old value propositions to new highs.

Through this the core value of search has been unlocked and multiplied.
