Stop buying internal software. Build your own.
You know perfectly what you need from it.
KAOS is just a platform to create and host it.
Everyone was historically dependent on software developers and SaaS economy of scale. Only the largest enterprises were able to afford custom internal tools, the rest were adjusting to whatever market had to offer.
Today it's okay to have software for just 1 user, to be run only once. And this user knows best how it should work.
Companies throw billions of AI tokens to solve primitive problems over and over again, but most problems don't need the intelligence, they can be solved deterministically.
Use intelligence to write complex code that solves simple problems, then run it without invoking the intelligence at all (or with it, up to you).
Don't automate yourself away, craft a workbench to make yourself more efficient.
Connecting your Slack and Gmail to your context doesn't mean the agent understands you.
KAOS starts with an interview, where the agent asks you all sorts of questions to understand and build a knowledge base of your business.
This knowledge requires tending and maintenance, it's a shared context between your people and your agents. And every tool you build would be grounded in this context.
These are scary times for most of us. When influencers claim 400x productivity and report trillions of tokens burnt, a lot of people feel left behind.
You don't need to reach their numbers to extract value from your agents. You can adopt proven practices at your own pace, and even if you crafted a small tool that made you slightly more productive, it's a win.
