- Fix: New Dialogue AI connects directly to your existing documents and data using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) — no migrations or reformatting required.
- Action: Day 1 — Choose one high-impact use case (e.g. onboarding, approvals, incident response). Identify the 5–10 documents or data sources it depends on, and ensure they’re accurate, current, and accessible.
Understanding Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)
Why RAG Matters
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) is what happens when your AI stops hallucinating, and starts acting like it passed the background check.
In plain terms, RAG combines the power of large language models (LLMs) with real-time access to your company’s own knowledge — think ChatGPT, but with a corporate memory.
Instead of relying solely on what the AI was trained on (which may be outdated, irrelevant, or wildly confident - but wrong), RAG allows the model to retrieve relevant documents, data, or content from your own systems — manuals, contracts, CRM entries, spreadsheets, even that one PDF from 2017 no one wanted to read — and augment its response with that context.
The result?
Fewer hallucinations, more accurate answers, and your AI actually sounding like it works here.
Why should you care?
Because RAG bridges the gap between generic AI and your business intelligence. It powers internal tools like smart chatbots, field support assistants, and sales copilots that don’t just guess—they know. Your teams get instant, context-aware answers, and your IT team doesn’t get 17 more integration requests.
RAG solves this issue by retrieving and referencing accurate, relevant, real-time data directly from your organization's trusted sources; file repositories, Intranet, Client Portal, etc.
Benefits of RAG
- Accurate, Context-Aware Answers:
RAG pulls in real-time, domain-specific information from your own data sources, reducing hallucinations and boosting relevance. - Faster Knowledge Access:
Instead of searching through documents, teams get instant, conversational access to internal content — like manuals, policies, or client info. - AI That Actually Understands Your Business:
By grounding responses in your content, RAG turns generic LLMs into specialized assistants tailored to your workflows and language.
How RAG Impacts AI Deployment
- Private RAG LLMs are ideal if you want control, security, and company-specific intelligence baked into your AI.
- Public AI models are great for general-purpose use, early prototyping, or quick experimentation — but lack business context and data control.
RAG improves AI’s ability to generate fact-based, relevant answers, by retrieving trusted information before responding.
How RAG Impacts AI Deployment
- Public AI (e.g., ChatGPT, Bard) – Generates responses based on pre-trained datasets, which may not be up-to-date or specific for discrete business use. Public AIs do not have direct access to private company data, which can lead to generic or unreliable responses for operational-type queries being used by staff.
- Private AI (New Dialogue AI) – Uses internal data sources with RAG, retrieving trusted business documents, reports, and policies before generating a response. This ensures fact-based, context-aware, and secure answers aligned with company knowledge.
Key Takeaway
What Makes New Dialogue AI Different?
New Dialogue AI is a powerful, purpose-built solution for implementing Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) with your own internal knowledge. It enables organizations to create intelligent, conversational AI experiences that are grounded in real, up-to-date business content — not generic internet data.
With New Dialogue AI, you can connect your chatbot to your company’s private knowledge base — whether that’s PDFs, intranet pages, SOPs, product guides, or CRM data. Instead of hallucinating or offering vague responses, the AI retrieves and references relevant documents behind the scenes, delivering accurate, context-rich answers to employees or customers instantly.
Setup is fast, no code, and doesn't require IT involvement. You simply upload your content or link to your knowledge sources, and the AI is ready to chat — securely and privately.
Whether you're supporting a field team that needs instant access to site instructions or enabling your sales reps to query CRM data with natural language, New Dialogue AI scales with you. It makes knowledge accessible through a familiar, intuitive chat interface — across web, mobile, or internal tools like Slack.
In short, New Dialogue AI gives you a smarter, faster, more secure way to activate RAG, and puts your operational intelligence into everyone’s hands — right when they need it.
How We Reduce Risk
Following are some key points on how using New Dialogue AI with your internal knowledge reduces risk:
- Eliminates Data Leakage to Public AI Models
New Dialogue AI operates securely with your internal data, ensuring sensitive information never leaves your environment, or gets exposed to third-party AI services. - Ensures Accurate, Policy-Compliant Responses
By grounding answers in your vetted internal documentation (e.g., SOPs, HR policies, compliance manuals), the AI reduces the risk of misinformation or off-brand advice. - Provides Auditable, Transparent Knowledge Access
Every AI response is traceable back to a source document, making it easier to review, verify, and ensure accountability — crucial for regulated industries or internal audits.
New Dialogue AI vs. The Rest
Here's a comparison table outlining how New Dialogue AI, Public AI models (like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude), and Custom Open-Source LLM solutions stack up across key categories for a 500-person company.

AI Use Cases: Where AI Delivers the Most Value
From RAG to Real Business Impact
Previously we reviewed how Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) ensures AI retrieves accurate, operational-specific knowledge. However, understanding how AI retrieves data is just one piece of the puzzle. The real question is: Where does AI create the most impact in your organization?
Many still view AI as a parlour trick; conjuring photo realistic imagery from descriptions, generating a list of the top five places to visit in Europe, how to calculate the volume of water in the average swimming pool, etc. Leaders moving forward are embedding AI into their operational workflows to unlock trapped knowledge, automate high-value processes, and gain a real competitive advantage.
This section explores how organizations across industries are leveraging a Private AI—not just as an information tool, but as a core driver of efficiency, decision-making, and even forecasting what they might be missing from their core services and products offerings.
RAG shines when customers ask nuanced questions that require pulling info from long docs, manuals, policy pages, or knowledge bases — e.g., “What’s the return process for international customers with warranty extensions?”
Product or Technical Documentation Support
For technical products or SaaS, RAG can answer questions by referencing your live product documentation, guides, or API docs — much faster and more accurately than scripted bots.
Multilingual Self-Service Portals
RAG models can dynamically retrieve answers in the user’s preferred language by referencing translated internal content — reducing the need for duplicating support materials across languages.
RAG isn’t built for real-time queries that require live system access. Questions like “Where’s my order?” or “What’s my current subscription status?” typically depend on direct integrations with internal platforms.
Account-Specific or Highly Personalized Issues
Anything involving user identity, authentication, or personal account data (password resets, cancellations) should be handled via secure, authenticated channels — not open-ended generative chat.
Emotionally Sensitive or High-Escalation Scenarios
Complaints, refunds, or customer frustration cases may require human tone, empathy, or negotiation — areas where AI still risks sounding cold, generic, or making matters worse.
Sales reps can instantly ask questions like, “What’s the latest messaging against Competitor X?” or “Which case study is best for a healthcare client?” — with the AI pulling directly from internal battlecards, pitch decks, and case libraries.
Deal & Account Research Based on Internal Systems
RAG can be connected to internal notes, CRM entries, and playbooks to answer questions like, “What’s the latest update on the ACME deal?” or “What’s our sales approach for logistics companies?”
Enablement for New Reps Instead of digging through Notion pages or asking their manager 15 questions a day, new hires can ask the AI things like, “What’s our sales process?” or “How do we handle procurement objections?” — pulling directly from internal training content.
Cold outreach or personalized follow-ups benefit from human nuance, creativity, and emotional intelligence — areas where RAG can feel robotic or miss key subtleties (e.g., referencing someone’s LinkedIn post or aligning with their tone).
Sensitive Negotiation or Pricing Strategy Decisions
Complex deal-making often involves context, nuance, tone, and internal judgment. RAG might offer outdated or overly general info, and it's risky to rely on it for pricing moves or discounts without guardrails.
Real-Time CRM Updates or Actions
RAG alone isn’t designed to perform live system updates like “Update the deal stage” or “Log this call.” These actions typically require direct system integration rather than document retrieval.
New hires can use RAG-powered chat to ask contextual questions like “Where’s the brand voice guide?” or “How do we handle procurement for new vendors?” — reducing manager dependency and speeding up ramp-up.
Unified Search Across Disconnected Docs & Platforms
RAG can ingest and index knowledge from multiple sources (wikis, PDFs, intranet, Google Drive, SharePoint, etc.) — then provide employees with direct answers instead of making them search through folders and pages.
Operational Support & “How-To” Guidance
Employees can ask questions like “How do I submit an expense report?” or “What’s the process for requesting client access?” — and get precise answers based on current SOPs and HR policies
RAG is only as smart as the content it can access — if tribal knowledge isn’t documented, it won’t be surfaced unless RAG can reach it through integrations.
Highly Sensitive or Restricted Knowledge
Unless properly gated, RAG can surface documents or data not meant for broad access — which makes it a risk in environments with unclear or inconsistent content permissions.
Dynamic, Frequently Changing Data
If the information changes daily (e.g., team calendars, project status updates), RAG may serve outdated responses unless regularly re-indexed or connected to live data sources.
Teams can ask operational questions like “What’s the protocol for reporting a security breach?” or “Do we require third-party NDAs for contractors?” — with the AI pulling answers from your compliance manuals or legal docs.
Audit & Evidence Prep Support
During audits, RAG can help quickly locate required documentation, certifications, or logs — saving time and reducing stress during prep and response phases.
Policy & Regulation Search Across Vast Documentation
RAG can instantly surface relevant clauses or references from internal policies, contracts, and external regulations (e.g., GDPR, ISO standards), answering questions like “What’s our data retention policy for EU customers?”
Like any AI, RAG requires strong access controls to ensure restricted information isn’t surfaced inappropriately. It’s essential in industries with strict compliance obligations.
Making Final Legal or Regulatory Judgments
RAG can support research but shouldn’t replace expert legal review — interpretations of law, contract disputes, or regulatory positions require human legal expertise.
Real-Time Monitoring or Incident Detection
RAG isn’t designed for real-time monitoring of transactions, logs, or system behavior. It doesn’t replace tools built for anomaly detection, GRC, or SIEM use cases.
New hires can use RAG-powered chat to find resources like “Where’s the expense template?” or “How do I get a security badge?” — reducing reliance on managers and speeding up productivity.
Self-Service for Everyday Processes
Employees can resolve things like “What’s the procedure for booking annual leave?” or “How do I access the LMS?” — without needing to raise a ticket or email HR.
Instant Answers to HR & Policy Questions
Employees can ask questions like “How do I request parental leave?” or “What’s our hybrid work policy?” and get answers instantly, pulled from your internal handbooks, HR portals, or policy docs.
Employees may need help with topics like harassment, compensation disputes, or whistleblowing — these are better handled by trained professionals in private, secure channels.
Personalized Coaching or Emotional Support
RAG lacks emotional intelligence — it can’t provide empathetic guidance or respond appropriately to mental health concerns, workplace conflict, or personal issues. Human intervention is needed.
Real-Time Task Execution or Workflow Approvals
RAG doesn’t handle transactional tasks like “Submit my leave request” or “Approve this timesheet” — it’s best used alongside HR systems, not as a replacement for them.
When support reps are handling tickets, RAG can quickly surface relevant knowledge base articles, past resolutions, or internal playbooks to assist responses in real time.
Troubleshooting Guidance from Documentation
RAG can pull precise steps from user manuals, help centers, and internal wikis when users ask things like:
“Why is my device not connecting?” or “How do I reset my password?”
Developer or API Support
For software products, RAG can answer technical questions by retrieving info from API docs, SDK references, or internal engineering wikis — e.g., “What’s the payload for this endpoint?”
In high-stakes scenarios like outages or security incidents, real-time decision-making and system access are essential. RAG can support context and documentation, but human oversight is critical during live crises.
Real-Time System Diagnostics
RAG isn’t designed to run commands, analyze live logs, or check system status on its own. These tasks require integration with monitoring tools or operational platforms.
Personalized Account or System Data
Questions like “Why is my server down?” or “What’s my current usage?” require access to live, user-specific backend systems. RAG alone can’t retrieve this data without direct integration.
During proposal cycles, teams can query historical RFP responses, pre-approved language, or compliance requirements — reducing duplicate work and maintaining consistency.
Answering Policy & Process Questions
Teams can ask, “What’s the process for onboarding a new vendor?” or “Where’s the approved supplier list?” — with RAG pulling answers directly from procurement manuals, internal policies, or shared drives.
Vendor & Contract Information Retrieval
Quickly surface data from vendor contracts, SLAs, and compliance docs by asking, “What are the payment terms for Vendor X?” or “When does our contract with Supplier Y expire?”
RAG isn’t built to track delivery status, monitor SLAs, or issue purchase orders. These tasks require integration with live procurement and supplier management systems.
Transactional Procurement Tasks
Tasks like submitting purchase orders, approving vendors, or managing budgets require workflow execution — not just document retrieval.
Sensitive Vendor Negotiations or Pricing Strategy
Contract negotiations, pricing decisions, or risk assessments often involve nuanced judgment and confidentiality — areas where AI-generated content must be carefully reviewed by humans.

- Winning Move: Start simple, deliver quick wins, and scale from there.
- AI that isn’t tied to measurable business outcomes will never scale.
- Winning Move: Align AI initiatives with clear, revenue-driving or cost-saving goals.
- AI doesn’t automatically follow company policies—it needs strict governance.
- Winning Move: Build security and compliance in before AI causes risk exposure.
The AI Execution Formula—Why Most Fail
85% of AI projects fail to deliver business value. — Gartner
Why? Because most companies rush into AI without a plan for execution.
AI success isn’t about picking the best model—it’s about execution that delivers real impact.
Success Case Example: Companies that embed AI into their core processes see a 40% productivity boost and 20% cost reduction within the first year. — McKinsey
90-Day AI Playbook: From Pilot to Indispensable
The following guide can be used to go from Pilot to Production—solving real problems, driving adoption, and proving value fast. It’s designed to address gaps identified in the AI Readiness Scorecard (e.g., Productivity, Knowledge Access, Adoption).
Days 1–30: Identify a Killer Use Case
Goal
Identify a real, high-impact bottleneck that AI can fix now.
For example, in professional services, a major bottleneck is the time teams waste searching for internal information — from policies to client history to campaign results.
Employees waste 1,072 hours/week searching for internal information (based on internal modelling by New Dialogue using ResearchGate data, 2024)⁶. That’s $55,744/week in lost time—or $2.9M/year for a 500-person company.
What to Do
Start by solving one high-friction, high-frequency problem. Such as helping teams instantly find the information they need.
Deploy New Dialogue AI to solve a real, immediate problem.
✔️ Sales accessing customer data
✔️ Operations finding SOPs
✔️ Marketing pulling campaign insights
✔️ Customer support resolving queries
Skip the long POC.
Run a focused, real-world pilot with measurable outcomes.
Get Data Ready.
Prioritise fast impact over perfect scale.
Define success early, “If this AI disappeared tomorrow, would anyone notice?”
Data Readiness
You don’t need to prep everything. You just need enough to prove value fast.
Map where key information lives
Start with one area - shared drives, internal docs, your CRM — wherever people waste time searching.
Clean up one high-impact dataset
Remove duplicates, fix formatting, and standardize terms so AI can deliver accurate answers.
Run a test
Ask common questions and check the responses.
If answers are fast, clear, and useful. You're ready to expand.
Focus on speed to impact, not size of rollout.
Clean just enough to get results — then build from there.
Early Impact. It's the quick wins that build momentum
Once you’ve cleaned a single high-impact dataset and run a real-world test, the value becomes clear.
By cutting average search time from 2.14 hours to ~1.07 hours per employee per week, you reclaim nearly an hour—just by eliminating wasted time.
New Dialogue AI saves ~4.8 minutes per search, delivering instant answers that compound across workflows and teams.
These aren’t soft wins—they’re measurable proof of impact.
According to Accenture (2024), AI can unlock up to 40% time savings on high-volume tasks across the enterprise.
That’s the power of getting it right early.
Estimated Savings (Based on Modeling)
Conservatively, reducing total search time by 50%—from 1,072 to 536 hours per week—equates to $1.45M/year in recovered productivity for a 500-person professional services company.
That’s $1.45 million back in your pocket, just from helping people find what they need faster.
KPIs for Success (Days 1–30)
Use these directional KPIs to evaluate your initial AI use case (e.g., AI-powered search or proposal automation).
These targets reflect real-world pilots, internal modeling, and practical benchmarks from New Dialogue.
While not formal industry standards, they are useful indicators to assess whether your pilot is delivering measurable value.

Pitfall to Avoid
Don’t deploy AI on messy data. Poor data = bad answers = broken trust.
(Gartner, 2023: Poor data quality is a top cause of AI failure.)
Days 31–60: Integrate AI into Real Workflows
Goal
Make AI part of how work gets done, seamlessly embedded in daily tasks.
AI Integration Actions
- Replace manual search with AI-powered Q&A in real workflows (e.g., customer support reps answering queries, marketing pulling campaign data, operations teams querying sop’s).
- Add AI to common touchpoints (e.g., CRM, email, doc platforms like Slack, Notion, Salesforce).
- Use templates for AI-generated insights (e.g., client summaries, project briefs).
- Gather feedback: Run a quick survey to identify friction points (e.g., “Is AI saving you time?”) and adjust use cases.

A Challenge to Watch
If teams aren’t using it, find power users and let them lead. Highlight their wins (e.g., “Saved 2 hours this week on customer queries”) and share these examples with the entire team.
Days 61–90: Make AI Indispensable
Goal
AI should be viewed as business-critical.
AI Expansion Plan
- Fully automate high-friction, search-intensive workflows (e.g., automate customer query responses in support, report generation in finance).
- Expand AI to other teams (e.g., HR, finance, legal): Start with a pilot in a new department, using real wins to build momentum.
- Double down on real use cases that shorten deal cycles, reduce delays, or improve service quality (e.g., sales closing deals 10% faster with instant customer insights).
ROI Snapshot (Based on Modeling for a 500-Person Professional Services Company Australia)
- Baseline productivity loss: $2.9M/year
- Assumed AI impact (50% less time lost): $1.45M/year
- Estimated AI cost: $275K/year (based on New Dialogue AI’s per-user pricing for 500 users)
Net Annual Savings: $1.17M/year
- Scaled Impact: For a 100-person company, savings could be ~$234K/year; for a 1,000-person company, ~$2.34M/year.
Key KPIs
Retention Rate
Target at least 80% or more of users from the pilot team continue using AI in daily workflows after 90 days. This indicates AI is actually helping people do their jobs—not just being tested and forgotten.
Note: There is currently no industry-standard source that tracks AI usage retention rates within teams. This is a practical benchmark used by companies to assess real adoption and value.
Efficiency Gains
Aim for measurable improvements in how quickly and accurately work gets done. Well-designed AI workflows can improve task speed and output quality by up to 40%, especially in repetitive, search-heavy, or document-based work. Accenture, Technology Vision 2023
Revenue Impact
Track business outcomes like proposals delivered, deal velocity, or hours saved on high-value work. McKinsey estimates that generative AI can drive 5–15% productivity gains in marketing—translating to significant ROI uplift in revenue-focused functions.
This is a practical benchmark based on how fast successful AI rollouts tend to spread across cross-functional teams.
Exec Tip
If your team wouldn’t miss AI if it disappeared—you haven’t gone deep enough. Revisit Days 31–60 and co-design use cases with your people to solve their daily pain points.
Tracking AI Execution Weekly & Midpoint Checkpoints
Use these checkpoints to stay on track and ensure your AI rollout delivers measurable results.
Weekly Checkpoints
