AI21 Introduces Maestro, the World's First AI Planning and Orchestration System Built for the Enterprise
AI21 is leading the shift from LLMs and Reasoning models to planning AI systems. Maestro increases the accuracy of GPT-4o and Claude Sonnet 3.5 by up to 50% on complex, multi-requirement tasks, transforming AI from an unpredictable tool to a trustworthy system. LAS VEGAS, March 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- AI21, a pioneer in frontier models and AI systems, today unveiled Maestro, the world's first AI Planning and Orchestration System designed to deliver trustworthy AI at scale for organizations. Introduced at the HumanX 2025 conference, Maestro marks a significant advancement in enterprise AI, boosting the instruction-following accuracy of paired Large Language Models (LLMs) by up to 50% and ensuring guaranteed quality, reliability, and observability. This technology transcends the limitations of traditional LLMs and Large Reasoning Models (LRMs), setting a new benchmark for AI capabilities. Maestro delivers a substantial improvement in LLM performance on complex tasks. It elevates the accuracy of models like GPT-4o and Claude Sonnet 3.5 by up to 50% and empowers reasoning models, such as o3-mini, to surpass 95% accuracy. Notably, Maestro bridges the performance gap between non-reasoning and reasoning models, aligning the accuracy of Claude Sonnet 3.5 with advanced reasoning models like o3-mini. While enterprises are eager to integrate AI into their operations, large-scale generative AI deployments often falter. According to the Amazon Web Services (AWS) CDO Agenda 2024, only 6% of organizations have a generative AI application in deployment, highlighting the fundamental limitations of current AI solutions for mission-critical tasks. The prevailing approaches—"Prompt and Pray" and hard-coded chains—present significant challenges. The "Prompt and Pray" method, which relies on LLMs and LRMs to execute open-ended tasks, lacks control and reliability due to the probabilistic nature of these models. Hard-coded chains, while more predictable, are rigid, labor-intensive, and prone to failure under changing conditions. Reasoning models, designed to solve complex tasks through thinking tokens, have not alleviated these issues. They exhibit inconsistent performance, struggle to adhere to instructions, and fail to reliably utilize tools. Consequently, none of these approaches delivers the accuracy, reliability, and adaptability essential for widespread enterprise adoption. "Mass adoption of AI by enterprises is the key to the next industrial revolution," said Ori Goshen, Co-CEO of AI21. "AI21's Maestro is the first step toward that future – moving beyond the unpredictability of available solutions to deliver AI that is reliable at scale. Delivering complex decision-making with built-in quality control, it enables businesses to harness AI with confidence. This is how we bridge the gap between AI potential and real-world solutions." "Wix is leading the charge in LLM adoption, powering hundreds of AI applications," said Avishai Abrahami, CEO of WIX. "Maestro ushers in a new era of agentic AI – striking a necessary balance between quality, control, and trust that could be a key factor in our ability to develop trustworthy AI applications at scale." "The potential of enterprise AI lies in balancing innovation with reliability," said Elad Tsur, Chief AI Officer at Applied Systems. "AI21 Maestro is a promising step toward making AI more controllable and useful for business applications, bridging the gap between powerful AI models and real-world enterprise needs." Maestro, powered by the AI Planning and Orchestration System (AIPOS), delivers reliable, system-level AI by integrating LLMs or LRMs into a framework that analyzes actions, plans solutions, and validates results. This framework learns the enterprise environment to ensure accuracy and efficiency, allowing builders to define requirements and obtain results that meet their criteria within seconds. By eliminating the need for prompt engineering and rigid workflows, Maestro delivers on the promise of truly trustworthy AI.

Zensai Unveils The Human Success Score: 'The Strava for Work' at HumanX 2025 to Predict Future Team Performance and Success
The Human Success Score is the first and only predictive metric in Zensai's Human Success Platform that communicates team effectiveness to future business performance with measurable impact NEW YORK, March 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Zensai, the only AI-powered learning, employee engagement, and performance management platform built on Azure and integrated into Microsoft 365 and Teams, today announced the launch of its groundbreaking Human Success Score, a performance-based predictive model designed to provide organizations with an actionable method to measure, communicate, and drive excellence across teams at HumanX 2025. In today's competitive business landscape where sales, finance, and product teams thrive on metrics tied to revenue, cash flow, and system performance, HR struggles to convey the same sense of urgency around people and performance with lagging indicators like retention and eNPS. The reality is that HR has not been able to equate investment in people with better business outcomes in a predictable way. This is where the AI-powered Human Success Score comes in, as part of the Zensai Human Success Platform—a centerpiece of HumanX 2025's focus on innovative tools for people-centered business success. 'Zensai's vision of distilling the human factors into a single score that indicates an organisation's people success is a bold and visionary step to overcoming that problem,' said David Perring, Chief Insights Officer at Fosway Group. 'Simple enough to understand and not overwhelm. Focused enough to trigger debate and action. Human enough to matter.' A Model Inspired by Everyday Success The Human Success Score is inspired by familiar, consumer-friendly fitness and productivity platforms like Apple Health, Strava, Snapchat, and Duolingo. Just as Apple's Activity Rings motivate users to improve fitness with a clear and simple visualization of activity, and Strava's leaderboards foster athletic achievement towards goals set by the individual, Zensai's AI-driven Human Success Platform introduces: The Human Success Score: A metric that looks at consistent employee engagement, performance against set goals, and continuous skills development The Engagement Metric: In Snapchat and Duolingo you have streaks when you show up every day; in the work environment you show up consistently engaged which benefits the team The Performance Metric: In Strava you have goals, badges, and achievements; in the work environment you need clear goals to achieve better outcomes The Learning Metric: On the Apple Watch you can close your rings when you've hit your goals; in the work environment you need to learn new skills to improve These metrics are aggregated to produce a clear, simple, and qualified Human Success Score that provides a real-time pulse on an organization's performance, helping them become 'Human Success Certified,' if they achieve a certain level consistently over time. 'Organizations can't afford to rely on complex, fragmented data when it comes to human success,' said Rasmus Holst, CEO of Zensai. 'The Human Success Score distills critical insights into a single, powerful number that galvanizes leaders and teams into action, just like a missed sales target or a system outage would. With streak-based achievements, clear insights, and department-specific badges, organizations are motivated to sustain their scores, ensuring ongoing excellence.' A Catalyst for Executive Action Zensai's model allows executives to quickly identify areas requiring attention. Losing the Human Success Score Badge, for instance, triggers a company-wide call to action akin to a high-priority alert in other business functions such as when ARR suddenly drops quarter after quarter. This innovation fosters a culture of accountability and continuous improvement, driving sustainable performance. 'Zensai is at the forefront of innovation, having created the AI-powered Human Success Platform that brings together advanced technology to make employees and managers excel every single day,' said Robin Daniels, Chief Business Officer at Zensai. 'By harnessing deep AI insights, our Human Success Score drives measurable engagement, performance, and development for organizations.' Proven Correlation with Business Outcomes With organizations already investing in costly workplace certifications, Zensai goes a step further, quantifying the key drivers of high-performing teams—skills, accountability, and commitment. Drawing from Katzenberg's high-performance team model, the Human Success Score enables HR and executive leadership to make informed decisions, aligning the boardroom around an actionable number for future success. Zensai's participation at HumanX 2025 underscores the conference's emphasis on transformative solutions that guide companies toward a human-centric culture in the age of AI.
