🎙️ "When companies struggle, the problem is almost always misdiagnosed. I would say think about it in 3 simple steps." That's the message our CEO Jan shared at #ShopTalkSpring2026. His framework is simple: 1️⃣ Connect your apps and automate your business processes 2️⃣ Build visibility so you can take action when something goes wrong 3️⃣ Only then does it make sense to lay AI on top. In Jan's words: "You've got the foundation, you've got access to data, you've got solid business processes. Now, you can augment that with AI as needed." This framework is data-backed. Our research with MIT shows that 90% of teams successfully running AI in production are using an integration platform. Read the full report: https://lnkd.in/giYFnR6t

If you're ready to pressure-test your AI pilots, check them against this 6-step framework. 1. Have you defined the desired business outcomes? 2. Have you mapped the operational workflow? 3. Have you ensured data availability and quality? 4. Have you built or selected the right AI model? 5. Have you integrated AI into business systems? 6. Are you using an integration and automation platform for connectivity, governance, and scale? LLMs can generate valuable insights, but if those insights are not connected to ERP, CRM, ecommerce, finance, and IT systems, nothing changes. Getting to AI at scale requires an integration and orchestration layer. Get the full guide: https://lnkd.in/epqdUA-N

Can't believe it's already the last day of #ShopTalkSpring2026! 🙌 This year's theme, "Retail in the Age of AI," couldn't be more up our alley. What we keep hearing from brands is that a strong integration and automation layer is the key to making AI actually work in production. It's the conversation we've been having all week, and we're not done yet. If you're still here in Las Vegas, come find us at booth #3828. We'd love to connect. Big shoutout to the Celigo crew on the ground and to everyone we've had the chance to meet already. Let's keep the conversations going! What's been your biggest takeaway from ShopTalk this year?

Our research with MIT found: 📈 90% of firms with AI in production rely on integration platforms 📈 Only 1 in 3 retail/consumer goods firms have centralized AI ownership 📈 The majority of retail/consumer goods firms are applying AI to well-defined processes (Download the full report: https://lnkd.in/giYFnR6t) AI can't run reliably on siloed systems. The retailers winning right now are building on a unified foundation for commerce: API, EDI, and AI workflows working together. If you're at ShopTalk, swing by Booth #3828 to see it in action.

Most AI conversations fit into one of two buckets: automate business processes, or use AI to handle complexity. But here's the problem: most real business processes don't fit neatly into either. Actual work gets done in the "messy middle." April Rassa, our VP of Product Marketing, breaks down what this means for teams prioritizing AI. One highlight: new research with MIT Technology Review Insights uncovering that "90% of teams with successful AI workflows rely on an integration platform."
