As foundation models plateau in raw capability, companies are discovering that accuracy and usefulness depend entirely on how well AI systems understand their specific operational context—customer histories, internal processes, domain rules—which requires integrating models with proprietary data systems rather than just deploying off-the-shelf weights. This shift is creating a new software layer between models and applications, where startups like Anthropic and established players like Microsoft are competing to make context retrieval and injection seamless. The competitive advantage in enterprise AI is shifting from model size to context architecture and data plumbing.
