AI Alexandria

Meet Alexandria: Smartflex AI for Intelligent Utility Operations

Alexandria brings embedded, contextual AI into Smartflex, helping utilities move from fragmented data and manual processes to intelligent, governed, and actionable operations. 

Generic AI won’t transform utility operations

Utilities manage complex operations across customer service, billing, payments, collections, meter data, field work, and digital channels. But when data lives in disconnected systems, AI becomes just another layer of fragmentation.

Alexandria brings AI into the core of Smartflex

Alexandria is the AI Agents Engine of Smartflex. It is designed to work inside utility processes, using operational context, governed data access, configurable workflows, and authorized actions to help teams analyze, decide, and execute faster.

Utilities relying on legacy CIS platforms face rising costs, rigid architectures, and slow innovation. Learn why modern CIS solutions are becoming the strategic choice for growth.
Open's 2025 Highlights
Utilities are under pressure from every angle with tighter margins, stricter regulation, and competition, all while customers demand immediate resolution and seamless digital experiences. It’s no surprise that AI has become a strategic priority in almost every boardroom. However, a different reality often emerges: AI stuck in pilots, innovation labs, or isolated chatbots that never integrate into the core of day-to-day operations. Insights are generated, dashboards are built, but billing errors still occur, collections still linger, and field crews still respond to avoidable visits.
The energy sector is undergoing a deep transition, marked by changes that modify how energy is produced, distributed, and consumed. This creates challenges ranging from the decentralization of power grids to demand growth, which is driven by digitalization and artificial intelligence (AI). With this landscape in mind, a utility's adaptability no longer depends only on physical infrastructure but on the platform that supports all its business and customer management processes.
The energy sector is undergoing a period of accelerated evolution, marked by an adjustment in transition priorities and the increasing demand for renewable resources. This dynamic scenario presents both operational challenges and strategic opportunities for the most innovative utility companies. The key to navigating this environment lies in each company's agility, efficiency, and adaptability.
Smartflex unifies all customer data in one centralized platform, utilities can unlock smarter strategies to boost collections and drive revenue growth.
