BrainBox AI, a trailblazer in technological advancements, has announced the launch of ARIA (Artificial Responsive Intelligent Assistant), the world’s first virtual building assistant. Powered by cutting-edge generative AI technology with Amazon Bedrock, ARIA is meticulously crafted to enhance building efficiency by seamlessly integrating into daily building management processes. Like the iconic relationship between Iron Man and Jarvis, ARIA offers groundbreaking technology and innovation to serve as an indispensable companion to facility managers. Tailored for use in commercial and retail spaces, ARIA boasts predictive capabilities to anticipate operational issues while vigilantly monitoring a building’s blind spots, effectively revolutionizing traditional facilities management.
Equipped with BrainBox AI’s pioneering autonomous AI technology, ARIA provides a comprehensive 360-degree view of a building’s data, focusing specifically on its systems and components to offer recommendations that are not only precise but also informed by holistic insights for strategic decision-making. ARIA’s design embodies a two-way interaction model, allowing facility managers and building operators to prompt specific tasks and receive direct advice on future actions for optimal building management. Clients can engage with ARIA via text or voice commands seamlessly transitioning from desktop to mobile interactions. ARIA’s generative AI engine operates around the clock, assisting clients in prioritizing and optimizing their buildings. This flagship feature transforms building management from reactive to proactive, elevating its value and directly contributing to organizational sustainability efforts.
“ARIA’s intelligence and intuition channels AI in truly unprecedented ways to help clients achieve their own unique decarbonization, energy consumption, and operational efficiency goals. ARIA enables building teams to delegate mundane operational tasks and repetitive analytics to it so they can focus on more value-driven tasks,” said Jean-Simon Venne, BrainBox AI’s co-founder and Chief Technology Officer. “In just two years, generative AI has demonstrated its boundless capabilities across all sectors. Its rapid growth mirrors its equally swift market adoption, proving that it is a worthy asset to any organization that seeks to stay ahead of the curve in innovation and efficiency.”
BrainBox AI’s fully autonomous feature is built on Amazon Bedrock, leveraging AWS Lambda, AWS Fargate, and Amazon Athena services. Amazon Bedrock, a fully managed service, provides access to high-performing foundation models from leading AI companies and Amazon through a single API, alongside comprehensive capabilities for building generative AI applications with security, privacy, and responsible AI. Joining the AWS Partner Network in January, BrainBox AI harnesses the power of AI and machine learning to develop innovative AI-powered solutions that can scale effortlessly.
“Amazon Bedrock was designed to help companies build transformative generative AI solutions and get to market faster,” said Howard Wright, Vice President and Global Head of Startups at AWS. “We couldn’t be happier to see a groundbreaking solution like ARIA come to fruition—one that will completely change building operations and empower facility managers around the world to optimize energy consumption and reduce carbon emissions even beyond what they have been able to do with BrainBox AI’s existing solution.”
