Companies to integrate Airties Cloud with Sweepr platform to identify and resolve home connectivity issues through next-gen data analysis and self-service
DUBLIN and ISTANBUL – May 14, 2020 – Airties, the most widely deployed supplier of managed Wi-Fi solutions to service providers globally, and Sweepr, the provider of simple care for the connected home, today announced a new strategic alliance to help service providers reduce operating costs by identifying and resolving home connectivity issues, and pre-empting calls to customer care centers.
Specifically, the companies will integrate Sweepr’s cloud-based platform with Airties Cloud, collaborate on joint customer deployments, and cooperate on future technology roadmaps and R&D efforts. Airties Cloud is a secure, GDPR-compliant platform that provides real-time visibility into subscribers’ home Wi-Fi performance, analysis on connected devices and data consumption patterns, and automated network optimization. This secure data will be used to inform Sweepr’s contextually adaptive technical support platform to help service providers respond to a consumer’s specific support requests via their digital self-care support channels such as voice assistants, mobile applications, chatbots, and more – reducing the need to contact a call center.
Together, Airties and Sweepr are bringing together the latest innovations in hybrid cloud-edge architecture, self-optimizing networks, machine learning, and self-care technologies.
Philippe Alcaras, CEO of Airties
“In today’s challenging times, service providers are under immense pressure to deliver quality Internet service and manage costs. In fact, they need to do both simultaneously,” said Philippe Alcaras, CEO of Airties. “Together, Airties and Sweepr are bringing together the latest innovations in hybrid cloud-edge architecture, self-optimizing networks, machine learning, and self-care technologies. For us, it’s key to the evolution of ‘Smart Wi-Fi’ – designed to help service providers improve the customer experience and lower operating costs.”
Given the strain on both consumers and call centers, it’s imperative that technical support be available in the moment, rather than waiting on hold for a care agent – and that’s now more possible than ever before.
Alan Coleman, founder and CEO of Sweepr
“Given the strain on both consumers and call centers, it’s imperative that technical support be available in the moment, rather than waiting on hold for a care agent – and that’s now more possible than ever before,” said Alan Coleman, founder and CEO of Sweepr. “One of the biggest generators of care costs are problems with subscriber home networks. As such, we are proud to be working with Airties to help identify and mitigate those issues immediately, through intelligent data analysis and intuitive self-service.”
The combination of Airties and Sweepr will enable self-help options that diagnose specific problems across home networks, devices, and services. Data analytics, natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning (ML) techniques are used to generate individualized, customer-friendly responses. For example, subscribers can ask simple questions like, “Why is my Netflix slow?”, or “Why is my game connection glitchy?”. Depending on the situation, Sweepr’s platform can then generate:
- Automated fixes (e.g. “We found and fixed the problem. Your tablet is sharing home Wi-Fi with other devices, so we prioritized it over other devices on your network. It should perform better now.”);
- Guided self-service (e.g. We think we know what’s wrong. We are going to take you through simple steps about the placement of your home router. Also, someone in the home was using a lot of bandwidth on an older iPhone 4. When older devices like that stream video over Wi-Fi, it slows down all the newer Wi-Fi devices in the home. You might consider streaming video on a different device, if possible.”);
- Upgrade recommendations (i.e. “Looking at our tests and analysis, it seems you would benefit greatly by upgrading to a faster broadband Internet plan. Would you be interested in that?”); and/or
- Context assisted intervention (i.e. “We aren’t sure what the problem is but have many details of the issue. We will look into the situation and call you back with a solution.”).
The companies expect their integrations to be complete and available for trials with service providers in the coming weeks. Sweepr works with communication service providers and large appliance manufacturers and has clients in both North America and Europe. Additional information is at: www.Sweepr.com. Airties’ technologies have been deployed by more than 50 service providers across 4 different continents. Additional information about Airties can be found at: www.Airties.com.

Together, we provide network operators with a way to collect, intuitively analyze and visualize end-user connectivity and utilization data and get answers across operations, business, marketing as well as customer service visibility into devices and applications
Andrea Peiro, President at CUJO AI
“CUJO AI has created Lens based on our experience monitoring and protecting over half billion connected devices to fulfill our customers need for data-driven, actionable insights while respecting consumers’ right to privacy and regulatory compliance requirements. Our integration will enable new and existing Airties customers to deploy Lens alongside the Airties Cloud agent through a no-cost licensing program. Together, we provide network operators with a way to collect, intuitively analyze and visualize end-user connectivity and utilization data and get answers across operations, business, marketing as well as customer service visibility into devices and applications,” said Andrea Peiro, President at CUJO AI.
We share a common vision is to provide the most advanced managed Wi-Fi solutions to our mutual customers.
Philippe Alcaras, CEO of Airties
“CUJO AI remains at the forefront of innovation in areas such as predictive modeling, privacy, and the security of consumers’ home networks,” said Philippe Alcaras, CEO of Airties. “By integrating Airties Cloud and CUJO AI Lens, we’ll be taking our relationship to the next level. We share a common vision is to provide the most advanced managed Wi-Fi solutions to our mutual customers.”
Network operators face challenges in understanding how consumers utilize their networks and broadband internet access. Lens’ interactive exploration interface and reporting dashboards are designed to enable network operators to navigate, cross-correlate and report on data related to connected devices, applications usage, content access, security threats, and privacy features that occur within consumer and business networks.

ISTANBUL – September 5, 2019 – Airties, the most widely deployed supplier of managed in-home Wi-Fi solutions to service providers globally, today unveiled its enhanced cloud management platform with a powerful new “Wi-Fi Experience Index” ratings scale and new capabilities to help operators better serve their customers. Airties Cloud will be showcased at the IBC Conference in Amsterdam later this month.
“Today’s service providers want reliable, quantifiable data about their subscribers’ home Wi-Fi experience, but also need an effective way to interpret and act upon that information, and that’s what we’ve delivered today with Airties Cloud,” said Philippe Alcaras, CEO of Airties. “Our new ‘Wi-Fi Experience Index’ provides actionable insights into customers’ network conditions, while providing common and simple metrics used by customer care, engineering, marketing and even consumers themselves. “
Our new enhancements are a direct result of Airties’ ongoing software development achievements and the acquisition of Technicolor’s In-Home Wi-Fi Management software business and personnel earlier this year.
Philippe Alcaras, CEO of Airties
Alcaras continued, “Our new enhancements are a direct result of Airties’ ongoing software development achievements and the acquisition of Technicolor’s In-Home Wi-Fi Management software business and personnel earlier this year. As today’s announcement demonstrates, we’re fully committed to delivering value-added Wi-Fi solutions to help service providers innovate and differentiate.”
Key Features and Functionality
Airties Cloud is a flexible management platform that continuously optimizes the network and gives service providers real-time visibility into their subscribers’ Wi-Fi performance, allowing remote diagnostics and troubleshooting. It also provides deeper insights and analysis on connected devices and data consumption patterns within the home, along with proactive recommendations. These principle applications benefit customer care, network operations and installation teams, as well as the decision making of business strategy or customer marketing departments.
Some of the new capabilities include:
- Wi-Fi Experience Index: Based on years of refinements, this patented approach gives service providers a powerful and precise way to interpret the overall Wi-Fi performance across the service provider’s entire installed base and for individual households. On a scale from 0-100, based on analysis of a variety of dynamic factors, it allows operators to understand the relative severity of certain issues, predict risks, and implement appropriate solutions.
- Data-driven Channel Planning: Provides dynamic optimization of Wi-Fi through continuous assessment of network conditions. Central to Airties’ hybrid cloud-edge architecture, this approach combines historical cloud data with off-channel scanning from the real-time local environment in the home. It includes evaluation of far-end interference data from hidden sources (e.g. non-managed Wi-Fi access points) to proactively select the optimal channels, minimizing interference from neighbouring networks and other sources.
- Continuous Wi-Fi Speed Tests and Capacity Forecasting: Allows accurate measurements of Wi-Fi link speeds, without having to run intrusive speed tests or load speed test software on CPEs and user devices. These measurements can be used for reporting and anticipating impact of new service deployments. For example, if a customer subscribes to a new 4K video service, or a faster broadband plan, the system can predict the demands this will make on the home network, enabling operators to take suitable measures in advance, such as including additional Wi-Fi extenders as part of an upgrade.
- Prioritization for Video/Gaming: With simple activation through the Airties Vision companion app, STBs, game consoles, or other devices can be identified for preferential Wi-Fi handling to ensure a consistent, high-quality experience. It is accomplished through Airties’ hybrid cloud-edge architecture embedded in CPE and cloud-based analytics. This capability is particularly useful for applications with low latency tolerance, such as UHD video and live multi-player gaming.
- Enhanced Privacy and Data Masking: Builds upon a GDPR-compliant solution designed to protect end-user’s privacy with advanced encryption and anonymization of key data, designed to meet the stringent requirements of today’s service providers.
Other core features of the Airties Cloud, which was previously marketed under the brands of Remote Manager and Wireless Doctor, include:
- Wi-Fi visibility and KPI tracking to understand how broadband services are being used in customer homes
- Performance analysis and dashboard reporting on Wi-Fi access points and connected devices (i.e. laptops, IoT/smart home devices, phones, tablets, game consoles, etc.) across entire installed base, or filtered by gateway model
- Proactive identification of customers in need of additional extenders, broadband speed upgrades, or device upgrades based on actual home conditions
- Analysis of connected device profiles and capabilities
- Wi-Fi performance optimization
- Wi-Fi load balancing through device management and frequency planning
- Interference prediction and channel optimization
- Pin-pointing end-user issues to facilitate customer care
- Remote diagnostics and troubleshooting of Wi-Fi issues in a subscriber’s home without requiring technician call-out
- Proactive alarm detection to allow problem resolution before it affects the customer base
- Support for zero-touch installation through extender pre-provisioning
- Integration with operator’s customer support tools and management systems through APIs
- Dashboard data for KPI tracking and management view
- Real-time customer care visibility for operator’s first level technical support
With Airties Cloud, there is no need to download any client-side software on subscribers’ personal devices. Airties’ unique hybrid cloud-edge architecture leverages both the embedded intelligence in CPE and cloud-based analytics to maximize responsiveness, scalability and performance.
At the upcoming IBC Conference in Amsterdam, September 13-17, Airties’ booth will be in Hall 1, stand B21. More information about Airties can be found at: www.Airties.com.
