Colgate-Palmolive folded Inference Endpoints into research and writing so knowledge workers share one view of internal knowledge work.
“Consumer Staples work at Colgate-Palmolive spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in the United States.”
“Knowledge workers asked for a shared way to run research and writing without freezing local judgment.”

Story
Consumer Staples work at Colgate-Palmolive spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in the United States. Internal knowledge work was splitting across regional habits. Knowledge workers asked for a shared way to run research and writing without freezing local judgment.
Hugging Face (Inference Endpoints) is what they standardized on. Hugging Face is the open platform for machine learning models, datasets, and inference that teams use to share and serve models. Colgate-Palmolive uses it as the system of record for internal knowledge work, with knowledge workers as the primary operators and other groups coming in through the same queue.
Leaders get a picture they can actually walk. Teams get fewer mystery statuses. The story is about operating change, not an unpublished percentage.
