BrainTrust Partners Launches New Products to Accelerate AI Planning, Implementation and Return on Investment

New offerings help companies prioritize highest-value AI investments and connect fragmented business data to power more effective AI

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--BrainTrust Partners today introduced two new AI-powered products designed to help companies identify where AI can deliver the greatest business impact and turn AI strategy into measurable results.

Just in time for 2027 budgeting and planning, BrainTrust AI BluePrint Builder helps enterprise leaders identify and plan for high-value applied, agentic and generative AI opportunities grounded in business value, ROI models and market intelligence. BrainTrust Intelligent Experience Platform (IXP) is a private AI platform designed for midmarket businesses and non-technical teams, enabling them to build and deploy AI agents that uncover actionable insights and new audiences, while delivering individual customer messaging and content via chat, email, and text messaging. Both products provide private and secure environments that protect sensitive customer and business information while helping organizations use AI to improve performance, reduce operational costs and augment human teams.

Companies are investing heavily in AI, but translating that investment into business results remains a significant challenge. KPMG’s Q1 2026 Global AI Pulse found that while 95% of organizations have an AI strategy, only 8% report an established return on their investment. Data readiness presents another obstacle. A 2026 Dun & Bradstreet survey of 10,000 businesses found that only 6% say their enterprise data is fully ready to support AI at scale. BrainTrust AI BluePrint Builder and BrainTrust IXP address two barriers to AI ROI: knowing where to invest and having the connected, reliable data and direction needed to put AI to work.

BrainTrust AI BluePrint Builder Turns AI Planning Into an Actionable Roadmap

BrainTrust AI BluePrint Builder is designed for large, complex organizations that need to determine where and how to invest in AI. The product consults with executive leaders and assesses a company’s current technology, data health, reporting, workflows and business goals. It then identifies and prioritizes AI use cases along an implementation roadmap that includes detailed timelines, resource and technology requirements, and estimated budgets. The process takes about an hour, compared with traditional consulting engagements that can take up to 45 days. BrainTrust AI BluePrint Builder can also be used iteratively as plans evolve in executive or board meetings, quarterly business reviews and annual planning meetings.

“Business leaders are under pressure to make decisions about AI, but many aren’t sure where to start, how much to budget or what areas will provide the greatest ROI for their specific business,” said Tim Hayden, CEO, BrainTrust Partners. “BrainTrust AI BluePrint Builder gives leaders a confident and defensible view of where AI can make a difference in their business and what it will take to get there. And because AI is changing so quickly, they can continue using the tool as their priorities and AI needs evolve.”

BrainTrust Partners partnered with Iternal to develop BrainTrust AI BluePrint Builder. The system draws on more than 4,000 enterprise digital transformation and AI projects delivered over the past five years, and monitors new data and AI product release announcements, giving business leaders a proven foundation for evaluating AI opportunities by potential impact and return.

BrainTrust IXP Connects Customer and Business Data to Give AI More Context

BrainTrust IXP is designed for midmarket and multi-location businesses with customer and operational data spread across different systems. The platform connects that information so businesses can better understand customers, power AI-driven interactions, automate work and inform business decisions. Initially proven for automotive dealer groups, BrainTrust IXP can connect information from dealership management systems (DMS), CRM, inventory, service, website, finance and insurance, and sales and marketing systems to create a more complete view of each customer.

With that information connected, an AI agent can understand a customer’s history and recent activity before an interaction begins. For example, at an automotive dealership, the AI agent can know the customer’s current vehicle, service history, recent website activity and previous interactions, then use that context to respond to an inquiry, identify what the customer needs and pass the information to the appropriate team member. BrainTrust IXP also supports agentic AI interactions across direct channels including SMS, email and website chat.

“Most businesses already have tremendous amounts of information about their customers and operations, but that information often sits in different places, making it difficult to connect the dots and extract value,” said Hayden. “BrainTrust IXP connects the data so AI has the context to be more useful to businesses and their customers, giving team members greater insight to operate more effectively, while marketing communications become more efficient and productive.”

Availability

BrainTrust AI BluePrint Builder and BrainTrust IXP are now available. BrainTrust Partners will showcase its AI capabilities at the Automotive AI Summit at MIT in Cambridge, Massachusetts; Autovate in Scottsdale, Arizona; and MAICON in Cleveland, Ohio. BrainTrust IXP will be available for additional vertical markets, including retail, hospitality, sports, franchises and more in Q4 2026.
