Intelligence Layer for Telecom Services
Leveraging expertise across domains—including RAN, routing, AI data centers, security, and telecom—the companies said in a joint statement at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2025 that the Telecom AI Platform will create a new central intelligence layer for telecom and digital services. This multi-domain intelligence framework will integrate AI and automation into every layer of network operations.
The AI platform will be large language model (LLM)-agnostic and utilise open APIs to optimise functionality and capabilities. It will harness agentic AI, both LLMs, domain-specific small language models (SLMs), and non-GenAI machine learning techniques to enable end-to-end intelligence for network management and operations.

First Deployment with Jio
The new Open Telecom AI Platform will be built with Jio as the first customer, creating a replicable reference architecture and deployable solution for the broader global service provider industry, according to the statement.
Additionally, the AI platform aims to foster the development and commercialisation of artificial intelligence (AI)-driven telecom solutions. “Beyond transforming connectivity, this initiative is intended to drive innovation across the entire telecom and digital services ecosystem, enabling intelligent automation, optimizing network efficiency, and accelerating the adoption of AI-driven applications that enhance enterprise and consumer experiences,” the companies said.
The companies described the planned platform as a solutions-oriented, multi-domain intelligence framework aimed at enhancing network security and efficiency while reducing total cost of ownership (TCO).
