Projects Background
Our customer is a company from California that develops AI-based solutions for professionals and companies. One of their major goals from the beginning was to create an AI assistant that would help users to sort through the extensive amounts of information provided by different Internet resources and create a continuous feed out of the most helpful ones.
This project resulted in a self-learning information assistant. It quickly adapts to the preferences of individual users and a company as a whole and provides them with significant, prompt, and relevant information.
Our Clients Background
Client is Silicon Valley-based business, and, like many other IT companies in the area, they are pushing AI technology forward. The company has already proven that they are reliable and unique by securing partnerships with Microsoft Teams.
Client's Challenges
Our goal in this collaboration was to create an AI assistant that would collect the most relevant information from different sources according to the pre-defined criteria and with capabilities for further adaptation. Also, we were tasked with creating mechanisms for picking the perfect schedules to deliver the information (e.g., before the meeting, during periods of inactivity, etc.).
The most challenging aspect of this solution was finding a way to determine the preferences of each user. The bot would also have to analyze clients’ current priorities, work cycles and adapt to changes while allowing users to provide manual adjustments.
Implementation
To solve these challenges, a bot has to gather a lot of data on prospective users. To provide assistant with massive data-processing capabilities we based it on client’s own Personal Data Fusion platform. Its usage allows one to follow the most important client contacts and to analyze the operational data directly. Personal Data Fusion is a part of a third wave of the Internet Evolution. It can be compared with the likes of Siri and Cortana in the way it provides a user with a relevant information.
The data used for organizing the process mostly comes from Office 365 solutions. This is one of the reasons why we’ve used the Microsoft Bot Framework to integrate the assistant with email and calendar services.
