What's still relevant

How Cognassist builds personalised strategies from an employee's cognitive profile and job role.
The principles behind Kai: suggestions rather than decisions, a human stays in control, and AI supports colleagues rather than replacing them.

What's out of date

B Corp (from 2:27). The host describes Cognassist as a B Corp. Now: Cognassist's B Corp certification has not been renewed; its current certifications are ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO/IEC 27001 and Cyber Essentials.
What Kai does (from 4:20). Kai is shown as an early prototype that organises task lists, runs daily memory check-ins, plans meetings and could join meetings as a silent coach. Now: Kai builds personalised task strategies from an employee's cognitive profile and job role, which they can save in My Strategies; the calendar, meeting and check-in coaching shown here isn't part of the current product.
