He breaks down using Collide for well search to pull operational histories in seconds instead of burning a third of his day hunting through documents, and where he wants it to go next, diagnostic help, probing questions, and eventually a "Pumperbot" that pumpers can talk to in the field. Michael Cortez from Collide walks through the difference between finding information and actually using it, and why voice-to-text could capture the tribal knowledge that never makes it onto paper.
