Our team spent years teaching AI to some of the most capable professionals in the world, at Stanford, at Fortune 500 companies, across executive workshops and courses. The pattern was always the same: organizations would invest heavily in AI tools, run training programs, and then watch adoption stall within weeks. Adoptions fragmented, employees workflows don't change, and leadership had no way to know what was working from all their AI investment.

Modo exists because training alone doesn't change how people work. What changes behavior is meeting employees inside their actual workflows, showing them which AI tool to use right now, making that tool work better for their specific task, and giving leadership real data on what's driving results. That's what we build.
