Old playbooks loved the phrase “bolt-on.” It still shows up in banker decks, but AI-native platforms don’t bolt anything—they absorb it. Integrations that used to feel like organ transplants now feel like seconds-long software updates.
Need proof? Last week delivered three textbook plays:
Three arenas—hospital revenue, defense data, wealth-tech marketing—one lesson: eliminate seams, own the feedback loop, scale faster than stand-alone tools can re-pitch.
RAD Intel’s Artificial Intelligence Buyout (AIBO) flywheel starts in marketing because revenue signals scream loudest there, but the backbone is industry-agnostic. The same decision layer that nails influencer mix can triage support tickets or balance retail stock. Pilots are live now—moving fast. Shared data drops acquisition cost, outcome-based pricing lifts margin ceilings, and agentic-AI turns integration from drag to differentiator. Halftime in The Convergence Game is here; speed separates champions from bystanders.
Great companies aren’t waiting for the next funding cycle—or the next compliance memo—to decide what comes next. They’re engineering optionality at the data layer, then letting AI surface the next growth vector automatically. That mindset sits at the center of Artificial Intelligence Buyout (AIBO):
If you lead a point solution with an unfair advantage—or you steward a brand that needs a partner who can tap the full growth spine—my line is open. The next deal, the next pilot, the next category win is one decisive conversation away.
