What is this study?

Keeper is running a paid study on what AI can and can’t do at work. You design a realistic project from your own line of work, and it becomes one of the tests we use to see where AI actually delivers and where it’s all talk.

A real project from your work

Something you’d actually do for work, doable on a computer with everyday software. No specialized or paid tools required.

Too hard for today’s AI

If AI would struggle with a project a real person could knock out in 2–10 hours, that’s exactly what we’re looking for.
