The AI Power User Index: New Research on AI Coaching and Performance from Analog Devices

Most organizations measure AI coaching success by one metric: did people log in? That's like measuring a gym membership by badge swipes. It tells you nothing about who got stronger.

Analog Devices took a different approach. Working with former Google people analytics leader Prasad Setty, ADI studied 45,000+ AI coaching sessions over 15 months to understand what meaningful engagement actually looks like — and whether it connects to real performance outcomes.

In this session, you'll learn:

• How ADI embedded AI coaching into performance reviews, feedback, and daily work across 10,000+ employees in 30+ languages
• What the Power User Index measures — and why volume, breadth of use, and conversation quality matter more than adoption rates
• The research finding: power users are 28% more likely to move up a performance band
• Why managers are the single biggest lever for driving team-wide AI coaching adoption (the 2x effect)
