The Dashboard Isn't the Intervention
Most intervention software is bought, deployed, and then quietly not used. The gap isn't features. It's the distance between a dashboard that reports a problem and a person who acts on it.
Districts buy multi-tiered intervention systems and under-implement them. Applied AI's real job isn't a better dashboard — it's closing the gap between insight and action.
