Scalability | Scalability | Limited by in-house resources | Scales with your needs |
Integration Complexity | Integration Complexity | High - custom integrations needed | |
AI/ML Capabilities | AI/ML Capabilities | Internal teams can initially use latest AI models, but are challenged by consistently and quickly adapting or migrating based on changes in the AI industry | Momentum undergoes model updates and maintenance on a bi-weekly basis. Momentum has a tried and true methodology and practice with respect to this and we believe this to be an area of drastic underestimation when building on top of a raw foundation model. |
Reducing Hallucinations | Reducing Hallucinations | Requires full time oversight, systems, and advanced knowledge in prompting | Momentum uses RAG, advanced prompt engineering, and a unique extraction engine to ensure accurate, reliable outputs. Our solution evolves with your needs, eliminating the burden of constant internal adjustments |
Features | Features | Custom - Each time business requirement or process changes, updates and reengineering required | Comprehensive suite of products that are tuned and evolving. The horizontal nature and central thesis of Momentum (to act as a data pipeline under any tech stack) means that we can go potentially deep (and are) into a vertical specific feature set given the right economics. |
Data Privacy | Data Privacy | Full control, but requires significant effort to maintain | Zero retention policy with third-party providers (e.g., OpenAI) backed by a thorough Data Privacy Addendum that we establish with all customers |
Customization | Customization | Highly customizable, but time/resource consuming | Flexible configurations, evolves with your business |
User Adoption | User Adoption | Requires extensive training | Integrates with existing tools, Momentum meets customers where they are – minimal learning curve, works OOTB |
Time to Value | Time to Value | Long - must build from scratch | Instant - pre-built solutions ready to deploy |
Risk | Risk | High - success depends entirely on in-house capabilities and team member who may not be there long term and tribal knowledge leaves with them | Lower - proven solution with multiple successful deployments |
