How Does SURE Botti Support Foresight?

SURE Botti supports your foresight work in three key ways:

Helps identify future drivers of change

The bot analyzes trends and phenomena using the PESTE framework, taking into account political, economic, social, technological, and environmental changes.

Supports the building of alternative scenarios

The core of foresight is not about predicting the future, but about mapping out possible futures.
SURE Botti helps you explore how different drivers of change might impact your business over different time horizons.

Is based on a broad and continuously updated knowledge base

SURE Botti uses a variety of sources to provide a diverse view of future developments:

  • Research and publications across PESTE domains

  • Continuously updated selected materials to help identify emerging signals

  • Foresight models and explanatory materials that support scenario building

  • A limited amount of external knowledge to ensure the answers reflect a broad and up-to-date perspective

How to Get the Most Out of SURE Botti

SURE Botti works best when you engage in constructive and goal-oriented dialogue with it.
Here are a few tips for making the most of it in your foresight work:

Ask broad questions, but narrow them down if needed

For example:

  • ”How will technological development affect my industry?” gives a general overview.

  • ”How could advances in AI impact customer acquisition?” provides more specific insights.

Use the bot to identify trends and compare different developments

You can ask which megatrends affect your industry and request scenarios based on different perspectives.

Test different types of questions and observe how the focus changes

If you want to understand a specific phenomenon, you can ask the bot to analyze it from different time horizons or viewpoints.

You can also include current content, like an article or news item

An article can help SURE Botti focus on the topic you want to explore.
Note: a compact article works best for optimal responses.
IMPORTANT! Do not include any confidential or sensitive information.

Remember, the bot may not always narrow down its answers perfectly

If the answer feels too broad, you can ask a clarifying question such as:

  • ”Can you summarize this into three main points?”

Start Your Dialogue with SURE Botti

You can ask the bot, for example:

  • What trends will affect small and medium-sized businesses over the next five years?

  • How could the green transition change customer behavior?

  • What kinds of scenarios could emerge from technological developments in my industry?

Start the conversation – and take your foresight work to the next level!
