Optiva Inc., a leader in powering the telecom industry with cloud-native billing, charging and revenue management software on private and public clouds, announced that its BSS platform and charging engine now incorporate agentic AI using advanced generative AI (GenAI) technology powered by Google’s Gemini models.
While today’s chatbots are limited to queries and prompts, agentic AI has “agency,” with the ability to act autonomously and independently, adapt, complete complex tasks, make decisions and proactively achieve objectives.
Optiva’s agentic AI-powered BSS will enable communication service providers (CSPs) to achieve measurably improved outcomes by enhancing operational efficiency, cost savings, customer experience and business productivity. The agentic AI platform is already being used in digital BSS transformations by Optiva customers in the Middle East and the Americas.
Optiva’s agentic AI-powered BSS and virtual AI agents, integrated with the Optiva BSS Platform and Optiva Charging Engine, enable intelligent process automation, hyper-personalized customer experiences and faster resolution times for CSPs. By leveraging Google’s Gemini models, these AI agents enhance natural language understanding, proactive customer engagement and intelligent automation, reducing OPEX and accelerating time to market. Gemini models also power real-time insights using BigQuery and Looker, helping CSPs optimize and create innovative offerings, improve usage and billing transparency and drive new revenue streams, ensuring they stay competitive in an evolving telecom landscape.

This will create an intelligent, interconnected ecosystem that drives exponential value for telcos of the future,” said Chrisaman Sood, AI Product Strategist at Optiva.
