The Technology Integration Challenge
Organizations today face unprecedented technology implementation challenges:
Data Fragmentation: Critical business data exists in disconnected systems, limiting its value and accessibility
AI Integration Complexity: Implementing AI solutions requires specialized expertise most organizations lack internally
Shadow Technology: Unmanaged technology adoption creates security risks and inefficiencies
Implementation Failures: Up to 70% of technology projects fail to deliver expected results
Human-Technology Friction: Poorly designed systems create frustration and resistance rather than empowerment
Without a human-centered approach to technology design, organizations invest in solutions that fail to deliver business value or gain user adoption.
“We appreciated the attention to the discovery phase with HIVE. This is what led to a clear direction for the build and we felt our team knew how to implement these AI tools more after that effort.”
“The beauty of technology lies in how it can become invisible, integrating naturally into our daily rhythms, quietly supporting our creativity, intuition, and human connections. At Hive, we believe the most powerful tech feels more like a conversation than a transaction, inviting us all to think deeper, dream bigger, and understand each other better. When approached thoughtfully, AI becomes an intuitive partner, amplifying our strengths without demanding attention or stealing the spotlight.
Our goal is to break down complex technology into clear, relatable ideas that anyone can use, empowering not just experts but everyone. Right now, we're living through a technology revolution that allows us to actively shape our collective future, unlocking doors we previously couldn't open. By crafting and customizing tech to align uniquely with each person’s vision and needs, we can overcome barriers and drive meaningful change that once seemed out of reach. Together, let's embrace this moment to build a future defined by our choices, powered by personalized solutions and limitless creativity.”
Glen Brackmann, CTO
HIVE's Human-Centered Technology Approach
At HIVE, we believe technology should be frictionless—working seamlessly with humans rather than against them. Our custom technology solutions merge AI capabilities with human-centered design to create systems people actually want to use.
Our approach is built on three core principles:
Discovery-Driven Design: We begin by deeply understanding your business challenges, user needs, and existing systems
AI-Enhanced Solutions: We leverage cutting-edge AI to create intelligent systems that learn and adapt
Human-Centered Implementation: We ensure technology enhances rather than disrupts human workflows
Our technology team builds custom solutions that merge AI with your data to create intelligent systems that solve real business problems while maintaining the human element that drives true innovation.

FAQs
Common Questions About HIVE Custom Tech Design
Q: How is your approach different from traditional technology implementation?
A: Traditional implementations often begin with technology selection rather than business needs.
Our discovery-driven approach starts by deeply understanding your challenges, workflows, and user needs before designing solutions. This human-centered approach results in technology that people actually want to use.
Q: How do you handle change management and user adoption?
A: Technology success depends on user adoption. Our team of experts on both the AI Enablement and Learning and Development side, join forces with our tech team to ensure adoption.
We incorporate change management throughout our process, from involving users in discovery and design to providing comprehensive training and support during implementation.
Q: How do you ensure security and compliance in custom solutions?
A: Security and compliance are foundational elements of our design process, not afterthoughts.
We incorporate industry best practices, conduct regular security assessments, and build solutions that meet relevant regulatory requirements for your industry.
Q: How do you measure success for technology implementations?
A: We establish clear success metrics at the beginning of each engagement, typically including both technical performance (system reliability, processing speed) and business outcomes (efficiency gains, cost reduction, revenue impact).
We then track these metrics throughout implementation and optimization.
Q: What types of technologies do you typically implement?
A: While we're technology-agnostic and select the best tools for each specific challenge, we specialize in AI-enhanced solutions including machine learning, natural language processing, computer vision, and predictive analytics.
We integrate these capabilities with your existing systems to create cohesive, intelligent solutions.
Q: What is the average cost of these engagements?
A: Our average cost for a AI enabled dashboard has a range that starts as low at $250k for simple designs that have no more than 5 data source API integrations up to well over $5mil for complex systems.
The key is we conduct a very detailed discovery first before we commit to pricing with your team.
