    How we built this draft

    We analysed startup and innovation databases to see how solutions in this domain are evolving, then clustered them into a taxonomy and plotted them on maturity. AI agents did the first pass on categorisation and one-pagers. Every conclusion and recommendation on this page is written and checked by an nlmtd researcher.

      Three questions for you

      1. Is the scope right? Anything in the taxonomy you would add, split or drop?
      2. Which solutions deserve a closer look? Mark them on the solutions list.
      3. What does your board need to decide? That shapes what we deliver next.
