Netsmart Intelligence
Netsmart now offers specialized artificial intelligence (AI) services, custom programming, and secure AI environments, backed by our IT and cybersecurity expertise. We match each AI environment to your industry and your own policies.
For casinos and hotels, we set up AI in a closed environment on your own infrastructure, such as Meta Llama models running locally through Ollama, and agree the approved tools and information with your IT and compliance teams. Access to guest, gaming, and payment systems is reviewed and agreed first.
Netsmart Intelligence connects supported business applications to Claude or ChatGPT through a managed gateway, so your staff can ask a question, find documents, prepare summaries, and complete approved workflows in one familiar prompt window.
