Lemonade reduces specialist training schedule by one week with Guru's AI knowledge platform

The problem

Lemonade's rapid scaling created a pressing need for accurate, consistent, and accessible knowledge across global teams, but information lived across scattered shared docs and Slack threads with no clear way to identify the latest version or maintain alignment.
