Chatporter sp. z o.o.

Chatporter Network Agents solution directly addresses the demand for Network Digital Twins for AI/ML. Our AI/LLM-powered digital agents integrate with existing network inventory systems using APIs, creating an interactive and intelligent management layer. This solution provides a dynamic, real-time digital representation—or digital twin—of network infrastructure, which technical teams and mobile field engineers can intuitively explore and interact with using text, voice commands, and image analysis. Our LLM agents leverage the latest architectures for LLM agent construction and MCP servers, ensuring robust collaboration and efficient handoffs between agents. Additionally, this solution enables the planning and deployment of further AI-driven network automation scenarios, reducing or eliminating the need for direct human involvement.
By enabling intuitive user interactions, our digital twin solution significantly simplifies operations and enhances productivity. Currently, network operations heavily depend on multiple legacy systems that are complex, costly, and require extensive training. Chatporter simplifies, accelerates, and automates interactions with these legacy platforms, dramatically reducing service order completion times, minimizing operational errors, lowering training requirements, and optimizing the availability and utilization of network resources.
