Anup Karade - PeerSpot reviewer
Created a chatbot powered by OpenAI to answer HR, travel, and expense-related questions
We have created our own platform called CanvasAI. It provides machine-learning plumbing and integration with your services. So, we've integrated Azure OpenAI through Canvas. We're also looking at some hard interface modeling from AWS as well. We access Azure OpenAI solutions for our business workflow via the platform, not directly from the service provider. There are security considerations we're working through with the security team, etc. Canvas provides the control plane, which handles RBAC for user registration and model management. For internal processes, we're using OpenAI to create partner call reports, like summarizing quarterly zip code data and other financial models. We also use it for legal and contract stuff, like comparing SOWs and contracts. For user experience, we've created a chatbot powered by OpenAI to answer HR, travel, and expense-related questions.

A free toolkit providing improved neural network performance
The model optimization is a little bit slow — it could be improved. They should introduce some type of deep learning accelerator, like Jetson Xavier NX. There is a lacking in vehicle recognition — types of vehicles. Differentiating between cars, SUVs and different types of light, heavy, and medium trucks can be tricky. We have to train such models ourselves and then transfer them onto OpenVINO.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Our clients are interested in building knowledge bases, particularly in child welfare. In this domain, we focus on supporting caseworkers by compiling and organizing relevant information. This information is then stored in a database using a query. The database generates summaries and reminders for specific actions and even facilitates sending emails to parents or other relevant parties. The system's complexity is tailored to the specific needs of child welfare cases. Additionally, we're exploring opportunities to assist a healthcare organization. Specifically, we're working on streamlining the process of filling out forms required for insurance claims. This effort aims to ensure that hospitals can receive funding or payment for the care they provide."
"Azure OpenAI is very easy to use instead of AWS services."
"The high precision of information extraction is the most valuable feature."
"Generative AI or GenAI seems to be the best part of the solution."
"The product is easy to integrate with our IT workflow."
"Azure OpenAI is easy to use because the endpoints are created, and we just need to pass our parameters and info."
"The most crucial aspect is the conversational capability, where you can simply ask questions, and it provides answers based on your content and documents, particularly tailored to your specific environment."
"We have many use cases for the solution, such as digitalizing records, a chatbot looking at records, and being able to use generative AI on them."
"The features for model comparison, the feature for model testing, evaluation, and deployment are very nice. It can work almost with all the models."
"The inferencing and processing capabilities are quite beneficial for our requirements."
"The initial setup is quite simple."
 

Cons

"Sometimes, the responses are repetitive."
"Azure OpenAI should use more specific sources like academic articles because sometimes the source can't be found."
"There are certain shortcomings with the product's scalability and support team where improvements are required."
"We are awaiting the new updates like multi-model capabilities."
"Sometimes, it gives answers in English, even when the request is in Polish."
"We encountered challenges related to question understanding."
"I noticed there are no instructional videos or guides on the network portal for initial configurations. There is limited information available, and this is a concern for me. I would like to see more resources and guides to address these issues."
"Our customers are worried about data management, ethical, and security issues."
"The model optimization is a little bit slow — it could be improved."
"At this point, the product could probably just use a greater integration with more machine learning model tools."
"It has some disadvantages because when you're working with very complex models, neural networks if OpenVINO cannot convert them automatically and you have to do a custom layer and later add it to the model. It is difficult."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Regarding pricing and licensing, it's a bit complex due to the minimum purchase requirement for PTO units. We're evaluating the best approach between PTE and pay-as-you-go models. Our organization is cautious about committing to PTE due to the fixed bandwidth reservation, while pay-as-you-go doesn't offer enough flexibility. We're discussing these matters with legal teams to ensure compliance and data security."
"We started with monthly payments, but we plan to switch to yearly billing once we've stabilized our solution."
"The pricing is acceptable, and it's delivering good value for the results and outcomes we need."
"The platform offers a flexible pricing model which depends on the features and capabilities we utilize."
"It's a token-based system, so you pay per token used by the model."
"The tool costs around 20 dollars a month."
"I'm uncertain about the licensing, specifically the pricing. This falls under the purview of other teams, particularly the sales teams. I am not informed about the pricing details."
"The solution's pricing depends on the services you will deploy."
"We didn't have to pay for any licensing with Intel OpenVINO. Everything is available on their site and easily downloadable for free."
