Introduction of LANSA AI

LANSA, a leading low-code development platform, has announced the launch of a beta version of its AI assistant, named "LANSA AI." This innovative service aims to provide users with easy access to product documentation and knowledge bases, enhancing their experience with the platform. With headquarters in Austin, Texas and a subsidiary in Tokyo, LANSA Japan is taking a significant step forward by integrating AI into its user support.

What is LANSA AI?

LANSA AI is designed specifically for users of the LANSA low-code development environment. This AI assistant is trained using product documentation, support cases, and frequently asked questions (FAQs). Users can leverage this chatbot-like service anytime, ensuring that they can quickly and efficiently find the information they need, all at zero cost.

Features of LANSA AI

• - Users can input their queries in natural language, receiving immediate responses regarding product usage and specifications.
• - Instant access to tutorials, setup guides, and troubleshooting information.
• - Allows users to perform cross-searches across past support cases and FAQs, significantly improving self-resolution rates.

Addressing User Challenges

LANSA AI addresses common problems faced by users, such as difficulty in finding necessary information and the ambiguity surrounding how to utilize this information. Traditional site searches and static documents often fall short in resolving these challenges. With LANSA AI, users can streamline their information retrieval, ensuring a smoother and more efficient experience.

Idera Group's AI Utilization Strategy

The launch of LANSA AI is part of a broader strategy by Idera Inc., LANSA's parent company, to integrate AI technologies across its product lines. The AI deployment efforts are categorized into three key areas:

1. AI Support Enhancement Using Product Knowledge: Training AI with the documents, support cases, and FAQs enables rapid access to vital information, exemplified by LANSA AI.
2. Natural Language Query Capabilities: Business Intelligence (BI) tools, such as Yellowfin, are transcending traditional natural language limitations, allowing users to execute queries using everyday language.
3. AI Integration in Development Support: Embarcadero RAD Studio employs AI technologies for code completion, comment generation, and syntax understanding, contributing to increased developer productivity.

Research and development are ongoing to further utilize AI for code generation throughout the application development lifecycle. LANSA is advancing toward a new development style that emphasizes collaboration between AI and developers, integrating AI-driven development into a model referred to as the “3-Way Synchronization of AI, UI, and Code.”
