    Manifesto

    As the name implies, our core focus is Being Guided by Going Non-Linear. But what does this mean? Here's our Manifesto, written in less than 50 words, explaining what we do and as expanded upon in our Journal.

    We recognise the transformative power of AI and its impact on service models. Going Non-Linear empowers knowledge-intensive firms to thrive in this new landscape by embracing AI Agents that instantly work. With AI Agents, knowledge-intensive firms can do so much more. More clients, more revenue, same resources, same costs. It's Going Non-Linear.
