The problem

You have data. You need answers you can act on.

  • Which marketing investments are actually paying off?
  • What keeps customers coming back?
  • Where could AI save your team real time?

Sohum AI starts with the decisions that matter to your business. We combine business analytics, rigorous measurement and practical AI to answer them, then help you put those answers to work.

Solve one specific problem, or build a lasting data capability. Either way, we work alongside your team.

How we help

Three ways we turn data into growth

Start with any one. Each builds on the others: clear metrics show how your business is performing, sound evidence shows where to invest, and both help you choose AI projects worth the effort.

Understand performance

One trusted view of performance, built around your decisions.

We connect your data, define the metrics that matter and build reporting your team uses with confidence.

  • KPIs tied to revenue, profit and customer behavior
  • Executive dashboards and reporting
  • Forecasting and planning models
  • Reliable cloud data pipelines on platforms like Google Cloud (BigQuery) and Snowflake
  • Shared business metric definitions

Decide where to invest

Know what works before you invest more.

Sales rising after a campaign doesn't prove the campaign worked. We design experiments and causal models that estimate true impact, with honest uncertainty.

  • Marketing: channel contribution and budget allocation
  • Product: onboarding, feature and pricing tests
  • Startup GTM: test positioning and channels before scaling
  • Experimentation: sound designs and clear decision rules

Put AI to work

AI products and tools built around a real business need.

From picking the right use case to shipping agents, copilots and AI-powered features that work with your data, and proving they pay off.

  • Prioritize use cases by value, feasibility and risk
  • Build and pilot AI agents, copilots and product features
  • Automate research, reporting and repeatable workflows
  • Human review, quality checks and success metrics
