XOi Technologies is a data intelligence solution that helps field service teams connect people and equipment in ways that make everyday work more transparent and efficient. Our platform gives technicians tools to capture and access critical job-site information, get remote support when needed, and share clear records of the work they perform through photos and videos. As an AI-driven platform, we are building intelligent capabilities directly into the workflow. From something as simple as entering a dataplate, like model, serial number, and manufacturer, our solution can automatically provide specifications, features, and performance details that technicians and managers can act on immediately.

Beyond day-to-day use in the field, XOi also functions as a central system of record for service organizations, helping them make decisions in real-time while maintaining a clear view of their entire asset portfolio.
