VTI on CafeF: How AI Is Rewriting the “Competitive Formula” for Software Companies

VTI was recently featured on CafeF in the article “AI Is Rewriting the Competitive Formula for Software Companies,” sharing its perspective on how AI is reshaping competitive advantage across the technology industry.

As AI becomes increasingly accessible, competitive advantage is no longer defined solely by engineering scale or access to technology. The real differentiator is shifting toward how effectively companies can embed AI into their operations, augment human capabilities, and combine technology with industry expertise to create tangible value for customers.

“AI should not simply help individuals work faster. The bigger challenge is how we embed AI into the way the entire organization operates and ultimately create greater value for our customers,” said Tran Xuan Khoi, CEO of VTI.

The article mentioned how VTI is putting this approach into practice through its AI-native transformation. This includes establishing VTI.ACE (AI Center of Excellence), integrating AI into software development workflows, training more than 500 engineers in Anthropic’s Claude Partner Network Learning Path. Alongside these efforts, VTI has undertaken several key AI initiatives, developing AI guidelines and internal AI systems (AIWS and V-Copilot), while integrating AI into software development workflows and business operations. VTI also applies AI through its own solutions, such as AI-powered workforce planning and Manufacturing Execution System MES-X, to address real-world challenges in manufacturing and retail. 

The article also highlights VTI’s growing recognition in AI. In 2026, VTI received a Bronze Stevie Award for AI Company of the Year at the International Business Awards, while a VTI Japan engineer received the Agents for Good award at the AI Agents competition organized by Google and Kaggle. 

In the new competitive landscape of the IT industry, AI is not eliminating the value of human expertise but redefining it. VTI is not only expanding its resources but also combining AI with technology expertise, industry knowledge, and practical experience to deliver solutions for customers. Through this approach, VTI helps optimize operations, improve efficiency, and accelerate digital transformation, turning technology into tangible value and measurable results.
