The Enterprise Problem

Software development with GenAI is perfect from 0 to MVP, but is ineffective at Enterprise level. While companies let teams choose whatever tools they want, they create chaos: inconsistent code, very few MVP projects, issues with legacy code, data privacy and team skills.

The 4 Main Challenges for Enterprise Adoption:

🏢 Business Context (know-how + code)

  • Context Window Limitations of enterprise codebases
  • Implementation of RAG and vector databases
  • Knowledge Management of the entire corporate knowledge base

🤖 LLM Selection

  • Data Protection Levels (Open Source vs proprietary models)
  • Support for legacy languages
  • Operational costs and agent capabilities (function calling, MCP)

👥 Change Management and Adoption

  • Transition from Coder to AI Orchestrator
  • Integration into existing processes (bugs, security, technical debt)
  • Team collaboration with and through AI (Vibe Coding)

📊 Governance and Measurement

  • AI Policy: when to use which model/tool
  • New Code Review criteria for AI-generated code
  • Productivity and Developer Experience metrics

The Solution: FairMind Agentic Platform

Presentation of the enterprise multi-agent platform with specialized agents (NOVA, SAGE, ATLAS, ECHO, TESS) that manage the entire development cycle: from legacy modernization to digital product innovation.

Target: CIOs, CTOs and AI Leaders who want to scale GenAI adoption beyond the prototype.
