Hello everyone,
Grab your coffee and settle in. This week, AI proves to us once again that theoretical use cases are giving way to concrete, remarkably effective applications. Happy reading.

AI is becoming the best auditor of your IT systems
|
|
|
The fact
Anthropic has just announced that its AI model discovered 22 major security flaws in the Firefox browser. In just 2 weeks, the AI analysed thousands of lines of code and found errors that no human had spotted — including one critical bug identified in just 20 minutes.
|
|
|
The Codito analysis
What matters here is the speed and the precision. Where teams of experts would take months to check every line of code by hand, AI does it in a matter of minutes. It doesn't replace the security expert — it gives them a superpower to scan at massive scale and detect logical errors invisible to the naked eye.
|
|
|
What it means for you
For you as business leaders, the message is clear: AI-powered auditing is set to become the norm. If AI can find the flaws in your systems, hackers will soon be using the same tools to attack. The question is no longer whether AI will audit your processes, but when you will bring it in to stay a step ahead.

The AI Audit: breaking limiting beliefs
|
|
|
Out in the field, when we carry out our AI Audits at Codito, we always run into the same limiting beliefs. Here are the 3 most common — and why they are wrong.
|
Belief #1: "AI is about replacing people"
The reality: In 100% of our interviews, no one asks to be replaced. What teams want is to stop doing tasks with no value: forwarding emails, entering the same data twice, chasing clients by hand. AI is there to eliminate the copy-paste, not the human.
|
|
|
Belief #2: "We're too small / not tech enough for AI"
The reality: A notarial practice or an SME in the BTP construction sector has no technical director. And yet, in every single interview, we find 3 to 5 concrete, actionable use cases. Company size has nothing to do with optimisation potential.
|
|
|
Belief #3: "We'd have to replace all our software first"
The reality: Absolutely not. In 80% of cases, we plug AI into the existing tools. The problem of double data entry between two programs is solved with a smart connector — not by buying a brand-new €50,000 system.
|
|
|
Why do 80 to 95% of AI projects fail? Because they skip the audit and dive straight into the solution. The audit is the anti-failure: it is the guarantee of finding the genuinely profitable use cases before you invest.

What my 11 AI agents have taught me
|
|
At Codito, we don't just sell AI — we live it. I recently deployed 11 AI agents that operate like a genuine virtual team, each with a defined role: Business Developer, Chief of Staff, CFO, Strategic Intelligence Analyst, HR Director...
But there is one thing I've discovered that I want to share with you today. AI does far more than save me time: it is more productive than I was when I did the work by hand.
|
A concrete example: prospecting
When I did my prospecting manually, I spent 1 hour a day on a given volume of contacts. Today, not only is that task off my plate (I get that hour back), but my AI agent handles 3 times the volume I did in the same amount of time.
That's the equivalent of 3 hours of my work, automated every single day.
|
|
The true return on investment of AI isn't just the time saved in your day. It's augmented productivity: the massive leverage on tasks you simply couldn't scale with human effort alone.

Thank you for reading us every Sunday. Keep innovating, and see you next week!
