GenAIOps – The future of network intelligence

NIx PM includes our cutting edge GenAIOps capabilities, which transform traditional performance management into an intelligent, predictive system.
GenAIOps leverages advanced AI models to provide:

Agentic architecture for autonomous operations

NIx PM’s innovative agentic architecture represents the future of network automation. Our specialised network co-pilots – including Radio Assistant, Core Network Assistant and L3 Customer Services Agent – work together to enable autonomous network operations.

These AI agents use natural language processing to transform performance data into actionable insights, automate routine tasks, predict network issues before they impact service and provide root cause analysis with recommended actions. The system continually learns from network patterns and operator actions, constantly improving its predictive capabilities.
