It allows communication service providers (CSPs) to use GenAI-based recommendations and automatic configurations within the BSS platform to speed up new product and pricing launches. Hyper-personalized service offerings can be created at the touch of a button, automatically configured and upsold in real time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the rich resource of millions of customer interactions, integrated GenAI tools learn deeply, determining opportunities to upsell at the right price, offer new innovative bundles and proactively predict churn for greater customer retention. GenAI uses up-to-date market data, analytics feeds and detailed competitor analysis tailored to the market, saving time previously required for manual searches and audits. The power of GenAI empowers CSPs to generate fast new pricing options automatically without IT having to perform platform configurations, accelerating time to market and revenue with AI-based customization, suggestion and automation. As a result, CSPs are more competitive, able to protect their customer base and increase new revenue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new combination of GenAI and real-time market data delivers on the expectations of a new generation of consumer and enterprise customers while reducing costs. It is a tremendous advantage for new MVNOs that will be able to rapidly launch their new businesses on Optiva MVNO Hubs, a multi-tenant solution that extends Optiva BSS Platform with payment gateway integrations, taxation calculations and support for multiple MNOs globally. MVNO innovators, in particular, will benefit from the new updates to the platform, leveraging its deep learning and GenAI capabilities to optimize their service offerings and differentiate themselves in the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Matthew Halligan, CTO of Optiva, said: \u201cIn today\u2019s highly competitive market, it\u2019s vital that CSPs start leveraging the power of generative AI and real-time BSS data to better target their offerings and win customers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis technology is evolving fast, and market players now have a narrow window of opportunity to seize these capabilities and become instrumental in driving the industry forward.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Check out the upcoming\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cloudtransformationconference.com\/?utm_source=CloudTech&amp;utm_medium=NewsArticles\">Cloud Transformation Conference<\/a>, a free virtual event for business and technology leaders to explore the evolving landscape of cloud transformation.\u00a0Book your free virtual ticket to deep dive into the practicalities and opportunities surrounding cloud adoption.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cloudtransformationconference.com\/?utm_source=CloudTech&amp;utm_medium=NewsArticles\">Learn more here.<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Optiva, which provides telecoms firms with cloud-native billing, charging and revenue management software on private and public clouds, has revealed that its business support systems (BSS) platform now allows users to leverage generative AI (GenAI) technology to quickly highlight new, targeted revenue opportunities and dramatically reduce customer churn.
