We’re incredibly proud to announce our official Early Access Program partnership with Anthropic. For us, this is an important step forward. Not just because it gives us early access to some of the most advanced AI capabilities being developed, but because it helps us keep building the kind of platform enterprise strategy teams actually need: trusted, rigorous, contextual and built for real business decisions.   Through this partnership, we will benefit from: → Exclusive Model Access: Early access to unreleased, beta-stage foundational models ahead of public availability. → Advanced Benchmarking: Enhanced tooling to rigorously evaluate and compare model performance against our specific use cases.   So, what does this mean for our customers? It means we can evaluate emerging capabilities earlier, understand where they create genuine value and apply those learnings to deliver intelligence that is more robust, more contextual and more decision-ready.   More robust strategic reasoning By strengthening how we evaluate model performance, test outputs and build guardrails, we can keep improving the reliability of our workflows, reducing noise, improving consistency and helping teams move from interesting signals to stronger strategic conclusions.   Sharper company contextualisation Better models and stronger architecture help us deepen the way our platform understands each business context: its markets, categories, brands, capabilities, strategic priorities and constraints. Because strategy is never generic. Or at least, it should not be.   Broader, more connected market intelligence As we continue integrating multiple sources of intelligence - from market signals and expert content to internal knowledge and third-party data, this partnership helps us build a stronger foundation for connecting the dots across categories, geographies and business units.   This is one more step in our ambition to redefine how enterprise strategy teams work with AI.   And it comes at an important moment for us. Something new is coming soon. Stay tuned. #EnterpriseAI #GrowthStrategy #StrategicIntelligence
