## Frequently asked questions

### What is AI for IoT?

AI for IoT applies machine learning to the device and connectivity data an IoT or telecoms business generates, to automate support and onboarding, spot anomalies in telemetry, and make high-volume machine data useful, built on a governed data foundation.

### Our telemetry and machine data are noisy. Is that a blocker?

No, it's the normal starting point. High-volume device data is rarely clean. The foundation work exists precisely to structure and govern it, and we scope AI features to what the data can honestly support rather than what a demo can fake.

### Do we have to replace our existing platforms?

No. Your connectivity platforms, CRMs, and support systems stay where they are. We build on top of them and integrate into the workflows your teams already use.

### How do you handle customers in different languages and markets?

Multilingual support is designed in from the start rather than bolted on. For 1NCE we delivered the assistant in English and Portuguese, tuned to the expectations of each market.

### What happens when the AI cannot answer a question?

It says so and hands over, and the question is logged. Unanswered queries are reviewed, the missing knowledge is added, and the gap closes over time. Nothing is left to guesswork.

### Is this a one-off project or an ongoing capability?

It works best as a capability. The weekly improvement cycle is where much of the value accumulates, so we support the system beyond launch.
