Is Your AI Tech a Point Solution?
By Emily Gimpel — On October 28, 2025
AI has become the centerpiece of almost every technology conversation. New tools launch daily, each promising to transform how we work. But for many organizations, this explosion of innovation has created a new kind of complexity — one built from disconnected, single-purpose tools that don't talk to each other.
These are the AI point solutions — a chatbot here, a slide generator there — each solving one problem but creating another. Powerful in isolation, yes, but when stitched together they often lead to silos, conflicting data, and governance headaches. The result? Teams spend more time managing tools than creating impact.
At Seismic, we believe the next stage of AI transformation isn't about adding more tools. It's about building connected intelligence — AI that works across every motion of the go-to-market ecosystem.
The Pitfalls of Point Solutions
For most teams, AI adoption began by experimenting: a chatbot for note-taking, a writing assistant for emails, a summarizer for meetings. Each solved a task, but none shared context or data.
When AI exists in fragments, so do workflows. Sellers waste hours toggling between tabs and copying content from one app to another. Managers track performance across dashboards that provide inconsistent data.
As Seismic's Chief Product Officer Krish Mantripragada explained at Shift 2025,"These agents cannot live in isolation — they need context and data, not only from Seismic but from other systems."
Without that shared context, even the smartest AI becomes another disconnected widget. That's the danger of point solutions: they create short-term convenience but long-term inefficiency.

Why a Unified Approach Wins
A modern AI strategy starts with a unified foundation — one that connects people, content, and data through a single, secure platform. That's what the Seismic Enablement Cloud™ delivers.
Powered by Aura AI, Seismic's intelligence engine, the Enablement Cloud embeds AI directly into the workflows teams already use — from Salesforce and Slack to Outlook and Microsoft Teams. Rather than bolting AI onto existing systems, Seismic builds it into the core experience.
This approach ensures that every recommendation from Aura AI — whether it's a suggested deck, lesson, or insight — is grounded in the same trusted, compliant content. Governance and security remain intact, while productivity scales across every team.
"AI can't live in isolation," Krish reminded the Shift audience. "It needs to be interoperable — to work with other systems, agents, and platforms."
That interoperability is what sets Seismic apart: Aura AI connects the dots between content, learning, and coaching so enablement leaders can measure impact while sellers and managers execute with consistency.
What Connected AI Looks Like in Practice
When AI is unified, it doesn't just automate tasks — it orchestrates outcomes.
Sellers use the Aura Chat Agent to instantly find what they need — whether that's the latest case study, a talk track, or an answer to a product question.
The Aura Presentation Agent removes the manual effort of searching, formatting, and building slides, automatically creating compliant, on-brand decks that save sellers hours of preparation.
Meanwhile, the Aura Analytics Agent gives managers instant visibility through self-service reporting, helping them coach and prioritize where it matters most.
Every agent operates within the same ecosystem, ensuring that whatever one user learns, creates, or shares becomes insight for the rest of the organization. That's the power of a platform — one intelligence layer, many outcomes.
Future-Ready AI, Not Fragmented Tools
Point solutions will always have their place. But as AI matures, the organizations seeing real success are those that connect intelligence across workflows, rather than add disconnected features.
Seismic's platform is built for that future. The Enablement Cloud provides enterprise-grade governance, security, and scale — while Aura AI evolves with specialised agents that deliver measurable value across roles.
Because AI shouldn't be another tab to manage — it should be the connective tissue that unites every seller, system, and strategy.
As Krish Mantripragada said, "The future of AI isn't about more tools. It's about smarter, connected systems that make work simpler, faster, and more human."
