The board asked for an AI answer. Discovery takes a quarter.
Three executives, three answers about who owns AI. Spend duplicates, funded work never ships. Abandoned AI projects rose 17% to 42% in a year (S&P Global, 2024).

88% of enterprises use AI. Only 39% have real results to show for it. Otinga closes that gap — we settle the AI portfolio, prove teams can move, and cost what it returns, safe and compliant.

Your people have ideas. Almost none survive the pilot. Pilots prove value once, with no route elsewhere. Only a third of firms scale AI enterprise-wide.
Everyone uses AI. Almost nobody can show what it returned. 88% use AI, only 39% report EBIT impact — arithmetic, not technology.
Ask three executives who owns AI: three answers, no decision.
leadership funds, not relitigates.
Ideas exist, no route to shipped work. One hackathon drew 2,300+ engineers; 130+ produced results.
ideas get tested before the board.
Ask where AI spend sits: usually nowhere visible. One engagement surfaced 87 opportunities, 6 funded, $6.2M projected.
your CFO sees spend against return.
impact.com brought its engineers to Cape Town for the TTP Tech Hackathon, 23 April 2026. Otinga was facilitation partner.
“…moved teams from ideas to execution quickly, while still maintaining a high bar for impact.”
The same pattern holds wherever AI depends on people finishing what they start.

“Most AI programmes fail on arithmetic, not ambition. We put a number on the work before anyone builds it.”
An idea nobody can cost is an idea nobody can defend.
