Original research on AI in the enterprise.
AI is changing companies faster than most leaders can measure, govern, or design for. Autessa Research studies that gap — through original surveys, structured analysis, and published findings.
What we study
The questions that matter now.
Our research focuses on the real, operational challenges companies face when AI moves from experiment to embedded business function.
The Hybrid Workforce
How organisations manage, structure, and lead teams made up of both humans and AI workers.
AI Governance
How enterprises control, evaluate, and hold AI accountable — and where the gaps are today.
Operational AI
How AI moves from pilot to production — and what infrastructure is required to make it stick.
Trust & Determinism
How businesses build confidence that AI systems will behave predictably, safely, and within defined boundaries.
Current Research
Active studies.
These are our current research projects. Each study is built on original survey data from enterprise practitioners and business leaders.
The Hybrid Workforce
Managing Humans and AI Workers in the Next Generation Enterprise
How are companies actually integrating AI workers alongside human teams? This study examines how organisations are structuring roles, managing workflows, and adapting leadership practices as AI becomes a permanent part of the workforce — not just a tool, but a participant.
Governing the AI Employee
Security, Evaluation, and Determinism in Enterprise Agentic Systems
As AI agents take on more autonomous work inside companies, who governs them — and how? This study investigates how enterprises are approaching security, evaluation, and behavioural control for agentic AI systems operating in production environments.
Methodology
How we do this.
Every Autessa Research study follows the same structured process — grounded in real data from real practitioners.
Survey
We design and distribute targeted surveys to enterprise practitioners, operators, and business leaders working directly with AI.
Analyse
We structure and analyse responses to identify patterns, gaps, and emerging practices across industries and company sizes.
Publish
We publish findings as detailed research papers — openly available to anyone building, deploying, or governing AI in their organisation.
The problems we study are the problems we build for. Autessa is the AI-native platform for safely deploying, managing, and governing AI across the enterprise.
