The fact: According to the latest AWS study unveiled at the Paris Summit this week, 40% of French companies have adopted AI in 2026 (up from 33% in 2025). But only 19% use it in a truly transformative way. The majority are still confined to automating basic tasks.

The Codito analysis: We are at a tipping point. The market is shifting from a logic of isolated tools to the era of "agentic" AI — autonomous systems capable of executing complete workflows from end to end. Companies that settle for using AI as a simple assistant are already falling behind those that are rethinking their processes around autonomous agents.

What it means for you: The challenge is no longer adopting AI, but industrialising it. It is time to map your complex processes and identify where autonomous agents can take over from end to end — to move from "gadget" usage to a genuine competitive advantage.

When it comes to AI in business, the question is no longer just “what does it do?” but “where does my data go?”. For regulated professions — notaries, lawyers, healthcare, finance — it is even the very first question to ask.

We are currently planning a centralised AI platform for a notarial firm: email management, case files, document management, automated draft replies. The absolute constraint: professional secrecy. Their data (estates, donations, property sales) cannot pass through American servers. The Monday.com option has already been ruled out for that exact reason.

The sovereign stack we selected: Scaleway (Iliad group, 100% French cloud, GDPR certified) for the infrastructure, and Mistral as the AI model — with inference running directly on Scaleway's servers. The data will never leave France.

Most AI providers deploy on AWS or Azure without ever asking the question. At Codito, we ask it upfront, and we adapt the architecture to the sensitivity level of your business. That is not overkill — it is common sense.

This week, Codito Ergo Sum was at Go Entrepreneurs at Paris La Défense Arena. Amid the buzz of this flagship event for business creation, one thing is clear: artificial intelligence is no longer an option — it is the growth engine of tomorrow.

We made some decisive connections there. Among them, we are especially proud to announce that we have begun building a strategic partnership with the Île-de-France Region, which wants to support us in deploying our solutions across the territory.

This is a major milestone for Codito: accelerating AI adoption among the Paris region's businesses, with the backing of public institutions. The year is already shaping up to be an exciting one.
