How we use AI

We have AI embedded right across the platform, from intelligently mapping your uploads to creating customised policies in our Flows section. However, the most exciting application of AI is the Rio-bot model we’ve built that understands the way experts arrive at conclusions regarding how an individual or business can become more sustainable.

Artificial Intelligence is the at the heart of what we do at Rio. We have been developing intelligent systems to democratise knowledge for over 20 years. In that time, we've achieved a US patent for our unique data-capture algorithms and developed decision-making systems for major international consultancies.

Hybrid_AI_iconHybrid AI

We are pioneers in the field of Neuro-Symbolic AI as applied to sustainability. We use a novel hybrid approach that harnesses the conversational capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) and combines it with trustworthiness and auditability of Symbolic AI. This hybrid approach is what drives our intelligent sustainability assistant, ensuring users receive clear, reliable expert advice on matters relating their compliance position.

Rio_Intelligent_Assistant_iconThe Rio intelligent assistant

Rio’s intelligent assistant is a conversational chatbot that guides a user to better understand their sustainability compliance position. It does this by directing users through an expert consultation to give deep technical customised information on specific sustainability topic areas.

At the end of the consultation the assistant provides a clear set of actionable recommendations customised to the user. There’s no black box. Users get comprehensive, auditable conclusions that break down exactly why each recommendation has been given.

That’s what makes the Rio AI special — we provide trustworthy, tailored, transparent advice at scale and on demand. This can support your business in an economically positive manner to identify the interoperability between many extensive sustainability regulatory regimes.
