At Digital Power, we use Large Language Models (LLMs) to quickly categorise high volumes of open answers. Our team built our own secure, transparent tool that lets us see exactly what happens under the hood. But is AI already advanced enough to replace our human researchers?

Digitalisation, digital transformation, start-ups: digital products are being developed all around us.
