Case Studies

Six engagements, and the number each one moved.

Each of these begins with a value model agreed before the work started and ends with a figure measured against a baseline someone in finance verified. Clients are anonymised where commercial sensitivity requires it; references are available during procurement.

How These Were Chosen

Representative engagements, not a highlight reel.

These six were selected to cover our main sectors and capability mix rather than to show our largest numbers. Two of them — the telecom churn work and the hospitality deployment — began by contradicting what the client had asked us to build, which is a more useful thing to read about than a project that went exactly to plan.

Each entry states the problem as we found it, the work we actually did, and the outcome as it was reported to the client's accountable executive. Where a randomised holdout was used, the improvement quoted is incremental.

Case 01

Solving loan management from its root.

Financial Services · United States
The Problem

A specialist lender was losing good deals to faster competitors. Credit judgement was excellent; turnaround was four days, driven by six thousand pages a month of statements, valuations and titles being read by three analysts. Borrowers with property under offer could not wait.

The Work

Document intelligence with citation-level traceability, a decision policy encoding their real credit rules, a purpose-built origination and servicing platform, and human review reserved for genuine judgement. Every extracted value cites the page it came from, which is what got the credit committee's approval.

The Outcome

Turnaround fell from four days to under four hours on the same credit standards. Qualified conversion rose 60% and work efficiency 72%. The analysts stopped transcribing and started underwriting a materially larger book.

Case 02

Solving real estate operations from its root.

Real Estate · United Arab Emirates
The Problem

A property group asked us to optimise marketing spend. Their call logs showed 31% of inbound calls unanswered — evenings, weekends and, worst of all, the peak hour after a campaign launched. They were paying to generate demand and dropping a third of it.

The Work

A multilingual voice agent that answers every call, identifies the listing, qualifies the caller and books viewings directly into the CRM. Behind it, enquiry routing, nurture, tenancy administration, maintenance, inspections and owner reporting connected end to end.

The Outcome

Recovered the unanswered third of demand and lifted lead generation 75% on unchanged campaign spend. Qualified web traffic rose 90% and organic search performance 80%. Response time went from two days to four minutes.

Case 03

The churn model that finally changed churn.

Telecom · South Asia
The Problem

The operator had a churn model with 91% accuracy that had been running for a year without moving churn at all. The output went to a retention team that discounted everyone on the list, including customers who were never going to leave.

The Work

A subscriber context layer unifying network, billing, care and app signals, then the missing half: a decision policy choosing who is worth saving on margin, which intervention is cheapest and most effective, and through which channel — with a randomised holdout so value was provable.

The Outcome

Churn fell 31% while retention spend fell 19%, because discounting stopped going to customers who were staying anyway. Care containment rose 41% after voice agents were added across six high-volume intents.

Case 04

Eleven weeks of warning nobody was reading.

Hydropower · Nepal · Yashoda Group
The Problem

A generation unit failed during the highest-flow week of the season and took nine days to repair. Water kept arriving and spilling past a stationary turbine — revenue that hydropower can never recover later. The historian showed the failure developing for eleven weeks across four thousand tags nobody had time to review.

The Work

Failure signature modelling across vibration, temperature, pressure and efficiency series, anomaly detection against normal operation, alerting into the systems operators already watch, and edge deployment that survives the site's unreliable connectivity.

The Outcome

Unplanned downtime fell 34% and generation output rose 6.2% through better dispatch and forecasting. Emergency repairs became scheduled interventions timed for low-flow windows, cutting maintenance cost 28%.

Case 05

Paying commission on guests who had already called us.

Hospitality · Yashoda Group
The Problem

A fortnight of reservation-line logging showed the busiest enquiry hour was also the busiest hour at the front desk. Unanswered callers did not disappear — they booked the same property through an online travel agent minutes later, at fifteen to eighteen per cent commission.

The Work

A multilingual voice agent handling availability, rate, amenity and booking questions at any hour, plus rate optimisation against forecast demand, event calendars and competitor position with parity constraints encoded as hard rules.

The Outcome

Direct booking share rose 21% and RevPAR 14%. The commission avoided on reservations moved to the direct channel is a permanent percentage saving against a one-off system cost.

Case 06

A three-week waiting list and empty chairs.

Healthcare · Nepal
The Problem

An outpatient department had a three-week wait and ran at 78% capacity. Non-attendance approached a quarter of booked slots, and because cancellations arrived by phone during clinic hours there was never time to backfill them.

The Work

Non-attendance prediction per booking from history, distance, appointment type and lead time. Automated confirmation and rebooking by voice and message in the patient's language. A standby list fillable within the hour, and selective overbooking only where the model was confident.

The Outcome

Non-attendance fell 38% and outpatient throughput rose 22% with no additional clinical headcount. Records and intake handling time fell 82% through document automation. No clinical decision was touched.
