The challenge
Engineering teams were using 6+ AI tools on personal accounts. Proprietary algorithms and sensor data were being pasted into uncontrolled AI with no visibility and no governance. AI subscriptions were running at roughly $40K per month, scattered across teams and invisible to IT.
What they did
Deployed OrgLogic. Multi-model chat gave everyone one place for AI, with every major model available and smart routing per task. BYOK kept proprietary data inside their environment and flowing directly to model providers, at zero surcharge. Engineers picked the right model for each task instead of forcing one model to do everything. Slack and Chrome surfaces put it where the work already happened, which is what drove adoption.
The result
12 AI tools consolidated to one governed workspace. Shadow AI dropped 91%. AI spend fell from roughly $40K per month to roughly $12K per month, a 70% reduction. Engineers were adopting within two weeks.
