The Sibasi AI journey - Chapter 1

Sibasi AI

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has rapidly become an essential component in the tech industry, revolutionizing the way companies operate and innovate. At Sibasi Ltd, we have embraced AI to streamline processes, enhance productivity, and deliver superior services to our clients. Today, in this blog, we will explore how AI has been integrated into our operations, focusing on two primary use cases:  Copilot for employee needs and the integration of Gemini into our products.

Copilot

One of the most significant AI initiatives at Sibasi Ltd is the implementation of Sibasi-Copilot. Leveraging Microsoft Copilot Studio, the assistant significantly enhances our data retrieval and knowledge management capabilities improving our workflow. It is so efficient that I personally consider it more of a work colleague than just a simple chatbot. Here is our it elevates the Sibasi experience:

  1. Seamless Knowledge Sharing - The copilot crawls data from our public website and internal SharePoint, becoming a repository of Sibasi knowledge. Need a quick answer about anything Sibasi related? Sibasi-Copilot has got you covered. The copilot can respond to any question concerning any file or text on SharePoint and the company website respectively. This raises some security concerns since you don’t want outsiders or employees with limited access, gaining information about certain protected resources, hence the copilot uses delegated permissions meaning it can only read what you already have access to. As a new member of Sibasi, this would have been invaluable during the integration process into the company as the copilot would have been my guide assisting me to catch up on the company’s ongoing projects and activities.

  2. Simplifying License Quotes - Say goodbye to tedious license quote creation! Our copilot integrates with a dedicated license API, automating much, if not all, of the process of searching through the web and huge pricelists to get the cost of different licenses and calculating the total amount. This frees you to focus on strategic client interactions, being confident that no human error was committed in the calculations.

  3. Empowering Your Work Anywhere – Functionality and security are crucial for any software application, but I believe usability is another important characteristic that should be emulated. To attain this, our copilot is integrated with Teams, SharePoint and even a custom website, Sibasi Notifications, to ensure it can be easily accessed by everyone.

Gemini

Copilot is all about internal company use but what about our partners…our customers and product users. At Sibasi we are all innovators at heart, always looking for new ways to improve and exceed expectations. We have several inhouse developed products; EBM Suite, Eboard and Monival; best of the best but how can we make them even better?

  1. AI-powered file summarization – Depending on the user, these products can have a variety of files for the user to consume, some short some lengthy. Gemini is being integrated into the different products to ensure you do not have to read those files yourself but just take in a simplified summarized version. Optical character recognition is also a part of this feature to ensure even embedded images can be read as the file is being summarized.
  2. Intuitive user guidance – We all come from different backgrounds and how you understand something is not how I will understand it. Sibasi has amazing developers but the products they have developed may not be straightforward to all users. Documentation can also be lengthy and overly complex hence Gemini has been used to help any new user to understand the product, its features and how they work. No need to call customer support, let Gemini help you in your specific challenges while using our products.

     

    These features are currently being integrated and will be available in the next update.

 

The future to come

We really are going big on the AI game! Let's discuss more on integrating this in all the products we are building

Straight from the CEO himself, Amos Wachanga, our AI journey is just beginning. Here is a glimpse of what that AI powered future looks like:

  1. Effortless Notetaking – Honestly maintaining focus in a lengthy meeting, where there are a lot of moving parts and points, can be tedious having not mentioned capturing all the important things discussed. Why not let AI do the listening for you, and later present a more summarized and concise output?! Eboard which incorporates a meetings feature will be well placed to integrate this. Aren’t you excited?
  2. [Insert upcoming feature] – I leave this to you dear reader. What else would you like to see in this future. Reach out to us using the different contacts posted on our website or in the different feature request forms that can be found in the mentioned products. We are excited to hear from you.

 

Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to push the boundaries of what AI can achieve at Sibasi Ltd.
