Building an AI Roadmap Against a Moving Frontier
Half of an AI roadmap is a bet that the frontier will not absorb the feature before it ships. The other half is what survives when it does.

A state in acute crisis, where armed-group control of the capital and its logistics arteries makes conventional commercial operation unviable.
Haiti is not an investable market under present conditions. Gang coalitions control much of Port-au-Prince including access to the main port and airport, governance sits with a transitional arrangement rather than an elected government, and a multinational security mission is still working to restore basic order. We cover Haiti because clients with apparel supply chain exposure, diaspora-facing operations or humanitarian mandates need clear-eyed analysis — the work is exposure mapping, contingency planning and responsible exit or continuity design.
Every risk dimension is elevated. Armed-group control of logistics arteries, sanctions exposure among political and business elites, kidnapping risk and infrastructure collapse make normal commercial operation impossible in the capital. For clients with existing exposure, the deliverables are supply chain mapping, staff duty-of-care planning, sanctions screening and a documented continuity or exit decision.
We publish dimension-level ratings only where our analysts have completed an assessment. Unrated dimensions are issued as part of a commissioned country assessment.
Supply chain exposure mapping
Identifying and de-risking apparel and agricultural sourcing dependencies for buyers with Haitian tiers.
Humanitarian and reconstruction logistics
Support to multilateral and NGO programmes operating under security constraints.
Diaspora-facing services
Remittance, fintech and trade services structured outside the domestic security perimeter.

Half of an AI roadmap is a bet that the frontier will not absorb the feature before it ships. The other half is what survives when it does.

The AI growth ceiling is a design problem disguised as a demand problem. Hiring more sellers usually reaches a slower version of the same wall.

Two AI companies with identical products can differ by thirty margin points. The gap is engineered, not inherited.
