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.

Easy to use and good for disaster recovery planning
I use the tool for real-time data synchronization. Replicate is a beneficial tool for disaster recovery planning. The use cases attached to Replicate are very direct. I have used other products in the past, but they are not as efficient as Replicate. I feel Replicate is easier to use than other tools. Replicate has impacted our company's data integration processes by twenty to thirty percent. Overall, the product is easy to use. The product was also easy to configure. I recommend the product to others who plan to use it for real-time data integration. The product has been integrated into our company's existing infrastructure. I haven't done the integrations but I know that it was performed by someone else. I rate the tool an eight and a half out of ten.
