In France (24% of total sales), revenues rose by 8.4% to €3.5m, marking a fourth consecutive quarter of growth.   Further integration of Artificial Intelligence at the heart of Bilendi’s solutions 2023 was significant for Bilendi, due to the integration of generative artificial intelligence at the heart of its solutions, in particular with the launch of a new version of Bilendi Discuss, incorporating BARI (Bilendi Artificial Research Intelligence), Bilendi's artificial intelligence developed from ChatGPT and its internal AI. Bilendi has continued these developments in 2024, with the launch of new AI-powered offerings. Already capable of helping researchers with their qualitative projects, by automating tedious tasks such as writing coherent summaries and analysing participants' responses from large quantities of data, BARI was enhanced in January 2024 with automated professional moderation skills, making it even more powerful. Bilendi announced in April 2024 that BARI would also be utilised to optimise quantitative projects by enabling the following: maximise the potential of questions through automated moderation; set up automated AI quality checks for authentic and relevant verbatims using proprietary algorithms and AI models based on a LLM; codify thousands of verbatims in different languages, in a matter of hours and with the same quality standards in all countries, as easy to analyse as quantitative data; provide a deeper understanding of participants through qualitative research following a quantitative project. Commenting on the launch, Marc Bidou, Founder, Chairman and CEO of Bilendi said:“Enabling our clients to benefit from the skills of our AI (BARI), not only for qualitative projects but also for quantitative surveys, was a logical step in our strategy of using innovative technologies to provide quality research solutions to our clients. AI is an important component, and we continue to work on other developments and will soon be able to present other innovations". Bilendi intends to continue launching AI initiatives during 2024, with the possibility of automatically generating an interview guide and a full report by the end of the year, making it possible to fully automate market research with BARI.
