SAN JOSE, Calif., July 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, VirtuousAI officially launches BAIO, the world's first Business Automation, Intelligence, and Outcomes platform, a transformative new category of AI designed specifically to help mid-market companies close their Execution Gaps and compete at the speed of enterprise AI.
The Execution Gap, the widening divide between strategic goals and a company's ability to execute, is quietly eroding mid-market competitiveness. While the S&P 500 is investing billions to embed AI into their core operating models, most mid-sized firms remain stuck in inefficient pilot programs, disconnected tools, and data silos.
"Mid-market companies don't need more dashboards or scattered pilots. They need AI that does the work," said Chris Happ, CEO of VirtuousAI. "BAIO is the first strategic AI built to deliver real business outcomes, automating the actions that drive growth, reduce cost, and increase customer lifetime value."
Unlike traditional BI tools or AI copilots that merely suggest improvements, BAIO is plug-and-play, prescriptive and autonomous. It actively ingests data, analyzes real-time signals, and executes across systems, closing the loop between insight and action. The result is a continuously optimizing platform that delivers lower CAC, reduced COGS, higher LTV, and faster revenue growth.
Mid-market innovators like Mugsy, PRECISION, and major providers in the restaurant and wholesale industries have already used BAIO to:
"We've always known our best customers are worth everything, but finding and scaling those relationships was the challenge," said Leo Tropeano, Founder and CEO of Mugsy Jeans. "With BAIO, we finally had the ability to identify potential buyers early and engage them with precision. Not only did we grow revenue, we did it while spending less. That's the kind of AI outcome every growth-focused brand is chasing."
To mark the launch of this new category of strategic AI, today VirtuousAI released its highly anticipated white paper, The AI Execution Gap: A Mid-Market Opportunity to Win the Future. This playbook warns forward-thinking leaders of the growing AI divide between S&P 500 companies and mid-market firms, and emphasizes the window of opportunity that smaller companies have to close their gaps right now with AI.
"The winners in the AI era won't be the biggest companies," said Happ. "They'll be the ones who adopt early and execute the fastest. BAIO was built for exactly that."
VirtuousAI encourages forward-thinking CEOs to download The AI Execution Gap White Paper to learn how to put strategic AI to work at the core of their businesses, and cross the chasm to win the future.
Leaders are also invited to take the free AI Execution Gap Assessment at VirtuousAI.com and discover how their business can use BAIO to transform operations and out-execute larger competitors.
VirtuousAI is a strategic AI company revolutionizing how mid-market businesses operate. Its proprietary BAIO platform empowers companies to go further, faster—turning insight into action and strategy into scalable outcomes.
