The benefit, in brief
At Axens, Mendo structured the adoption of generative AI through a program of short labs (3 to 10 minutes), directly tied to business use cases, with a gamification system that keeps employees engaged at their own learning pace.
Axens context
Axens is a company of around 2,000 people worldwide, providing products, services and technologies to the gas, oil, refining and renewable energy industries.
For Rémi Moniot, Head of Digital Innovation, the challenge goes beyond simple technological curiosity:
Generative AI is probably the industrial revolution of our time. It's a technology that seems very promising, and it is critical that we adopt it, understand it, and above all position it to try to generate value from this technology for our company.
Mendo's differentiator: the lab format
What convinced Axens was Mendo's pedagogical approach, designed to embed learning in concrete, everyday use cases:
Concretely, how can I automate copying a text, summarizing a text, converting an unstructured table into another format, very concrete things in everyone's daily work and role.
Rémi highlights the short format as a true point of differentiation:
Mendo had a real differentiator with its lab approach, with formats of 3 to 10 minutes, that allow you, within the lab, to discover a concept, a skill applied to a use case very often directly tied to your role.
The platform also adapts to each function:
Mendo offers labs that adapt to each person's role.
And engagement is sustained through gamification:
The platform also includes gamification, offering one to three sessions per week, and allowing you to earn points in each lab, keeping employees engaged in learning more and progressing at their own pace in their learning path.
Rémi's personal experience
Rémi went through the Mendo program himself:
I had the opportunity to go through the program. I found it very satisfying for discovering AI, its limits, its capabilities, especially in terms of usage, through capsules that showed me concrete use cases in my daily work, which allowed me to apply them day to day in my role, to save time and gain efficiency.
His verdict:
Challenge met from that point of view.
Employee feedback
Beyond his personal experience, Rémi reports a positive reception from his teams:
For the employees, the feedback has been very positive. It shows that the platform allows you to learn step by step, to learn from concrete cases, which is often what's missing with AI.
Everyone was able to progress at their own pace:
They were able to go through the program at their own pace. Some went faster than others, but the value was definitely there.
Concrete benefits for Axens
- Structured adoption of generative AI through a program of short, concrete labs
- Role-based anchoring: each lab is tied to a use case directly applicable to daily work
- Stronger engagement through gamification and regular sessions
- Learning at each person's pace, with positive perceived value from employees
In one sentence
Mendo addressed our adoption challenges by offering a solution that allows you to discover AI, its limits, its strengths, its weaknesses, but also the different use cases.
