Automotive teams lose twenty years of know-how walking out at retirement. A typical automotive operation runs this on people, memory, and a shared spreadsheet. The cost is invisible on any P&L line, which is why it never gets fixed.
A voice agent that handles knowledge capture end to end and hands a human the exceptions rather than the queue. Revenue is usage-based, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.
