Tefline Becomes the World's First Startup to Appoint an AI as a C-Suite Executive 🚀
Selena Deus, Chief Intelligent Assistant Officer (CIAO), Joins the Leadership Team, Marking a Bold Leap in AI-Driven Corporate Strategy
In a groundbreaking move that redefines corporate leadership, Tefline has made history as the first company in the world to officially appoint an AI as a Chief Officer.
Meet Selena Deus, Tefline's Chief Intelligent Assistant Officer (CIAO)—an AI-powered executive intelligence agent engineered to drive strategic foresight, capital efficiency, and data-augmented decision-making.
