DM AI Connector

Ask your facility what's happening.

Connect Claude, ChatGPT or any MCP assistant to the Pythia DM and ask in plain English. It answers from your live equipment data: what's in alarm, what changed, how long the batteries will last, and what to watch next.

What's going on with the power in the data center?

Assistant · 2:15 PM

Utility power was lost at 2:14 PM. The generator is starting, and the transfer switch is waiting for it to come up to speed.

UPS-1 on battery · 42% load · 17 min remaining
UPS-2 on battery · 38% load · 19 min remaining
GEN-1 starting · ATS-1 waiting to transfer
Critical loads powered · room temperatures steady at 72°F

Everything is holding for now. I'll keep watching the UPS units, the generator and the transfer switch, and tell you the moment the load moves to the generator.

Update · 2:16 PM

GEN-1 running · ATS-1 transferred the load to the generator
UPS-1 and UPS-2 back online and recharging

Utility power is still out. I'll let you know when it returns.

A power failure, an alarm and a morning check, answered by Claude.

Watch an assistant follow a utility outage until the generator takes the load, acknowledge a CRAC alarm only after you allow it, and explain what changed overnight, all from live DM data.

No dashboards to dig through and no reports to build. Ask the way you'd ask a colleague, and the assistant looks it up in the DM.

How it works

Your assistant talks to the DM. The DM talks to your equipment.

The DM already monitors your equipment in its own protocols. The AI Connector gives your assistant a secure, controlled way to ask the DM about it.

Built for critical facilities

Read-only until you decide otherwise.

Hospitals, data centers and telecom sites can't afford surprises. The AI Connector starts locked down, and every step beyond reading is your decision.

Own accountEach assistant has its own API account and token, and can be revoked at any time.

Read only by defaultNew accounts are read-only. Only an administrator can allow writes.

Writes start offEvery write policy is off until an administrator turns it on.

Operator enables controlsAn operator must enable each control before any assistant can change it.

Limits enforcedValues outside a control's limits are refused, never adjusted.

No credentials exposedCredentials and user accounts are never visible to the assistant.

Availability

Available across the Pythia DM family.

Add it to the DM server, SPDM, SPIGM or SPAC4. It reads what the DM already monitors, so there's nothing to change on your equipment.

Questions

DM AI Connector questions, answered.

What is the DM AI Connector?

A Pythia DM feature that lets an AI assistant such as Claude or ChatGPT answer questions from your live facility data. The assistant can read live values, alarms and alarm history, controls and trends from the DM, and can make changes only where an administrator allows it.

Which AI assistants work with it?

Claude, ChatGPT and any assistant that speaks MCP or HTTPS.

Can the assistant change anything at my site?

Not unless you allow it. New assistant accounts are read-only, and every write policy is off until an administrator turns it on. Even then, an operator must enable each control first, and values outside a control's limits are refused.

Can the assistant see passwords or user accounts?

No. Credentials and user accounts are never visible to the assistant. Each assistant has its own API account and token, which can be revoked at any time.

Can the assistant keep watching an event and report back?

Yes, when your assistant supports it. The assistant can check the DM again as things change and tell you when, for example, the generator takes the load or utility power returns.

Which Pythia products support the AI Connector?

It's available for the DM server, SPDM, SPIGM and SPAC4. Include it when you order, or ask us about adding it to your system.

Do I need to change my equipment?

No. The AI Connector reads what the DM already monitors, so nothing changes on your equipment.
