AI enhancements by Soracom through the introduction of GenAI tools
In the realm of IoT connectivity, Soracom is leading the charge with its latest developments, integrating generative AI (GenAI) capabilities to accelerate IoT development and enhance video analysis. These advancements, announced at Soracom Discovery 2025, include new tools such as Soracom Query, Flux App Templates, and Flux Video Analysis, designed to empower businesses with smarter IoT network management, workflow automation, and advanced video processing.
At the heart of these innovations is Soracom Query, a natural language-based data analysis tool that allows IoT network managers to explore IoT network and connection data without writing SQL queries. Users can easily identify issues like rogue SIMs and analyze usage patterns through intuitive questions and visualizations. It has moved from early access to full enterprise-grade release, integrating with business intelligence (BI) tools to provide scalable IoT data insights.
Flux App Templates, built on Soracom Flux, a low-code IoT application builder, are another key innovation. These templates enable non-technical users such as product managers and system integrators to create custom IoT workflows automatically. They integrate multiple data sources and work with major AI engines, including OpenAI, Google Gemini, Microsoft Azure AI, and Amazon Bedrock, streamlining automation of fundamental IoT use cases.
Flux Video Analysis supports advanced video processing for IoT devices, unlocking new video analysis use cases by utilizing GenAI to extract actionable insights from network video data. This service allows the sharing of video data from connected devices for analysis by AI models like Amazon Bedrock and Google Gemini.
Soracom's vision for AI and IoT involves making the platform a bridge between the vast potential of GenAI and its practical application in IoT. As Soracom CTO and co-founder, Kenta Yasukawa, stated at Soracom Discovery 2025, "AI holds the promise to unlock the intelligence in all connected things, but only if they can speak a common language." By integrating GenAI tools into its IoT platform, Soracom is facilitating faster and more efficient IoT solutions globally.
Soracom began as a global provider of advanced IoT connectivity solutions with full MVNO capability on the cloud. Today, it is evolving to become a "real-world AI super connector," combining its resilient cellular connectivity with cloud integrations and emerging AI capabilities, thus enabling companies to accelerate IoT deployment, scale effectively, and innovate across industries.
Soracom Query offers options ranging from a lightweight trial option to a full Enterprise service with extensive BI tool integration. These latest advancements position Soracom as a leader in the IoT industry, leveraging AI to drive innovation and efficiency in IoT connectivity.
