The Problem

Reducing manual work without losing the human touch

AV Media’s day-to-day operations were constrained by inefficient meeting and information management processes. Time-consuming note-taking during client meetings and manual post-meeting administration reduced team presence and engagement, while scattered access to historical client information made it difficult to quickly retrieve. The need to stay current with multiple event platforms and technologies added further operational complexity. These challenges led to delayed follow-ups and proposal development, reduced client engagement, and missed opportunities to deliver additional value.

AV Media wanted more than an AI tool - it wanted a partner who understood its operations and could help the team put AI to practical use. Data privacy was also an important consideration. The team also needed support to build confidence and make AI useful in people’s day-to-day roles.

Key objectives

Make everyday work easier and client service more responsive

AV Media wanted to:

Reduce time spent on repetitive administration

Improve meeting follow-up and access to client information

Help staff focus more on creative and strategic work

Introduce AI in a practical, secure way, with support for the team

Solution

A practical AI assistant, tailored to AV Media’s work

Meeting Analyser App

Numa summarises meetings and highlights key points and action items about client event requirements. The summaries give the team a useful starting point for event briefs and proposals.

Numa AI Chat Assistant

Staff can use Numa to retrieve client history, get help with questions and recommendations, and draft tailored client communications.

‍

Automated technician introductions

‍

Numa connects with AV Media’s systems to check details such as the venue, meeting time and assigned technician. A few days before a client meeting, it prepares technician introduction emails in the coordinator’s drafts. The coordinator reviews each draft and sends it.

“Staff now only have to look at their drafts, do a quick once-over, and send it off. It’s a game changer that has saved us so much time.” Emma Johnston

‍

Support for the team to adopt AI effectively

‍

AV Media wanted to incorporate AI into their business in a functional and efficient way. With Numa, AV Media has a local partner they can call on for advice and training.

‍

AV Media also built confidence through practical demonstrations and role-play, supported by internal AI ambassadors and a Slack channel where staff could share examples and wins.
