Nearly 80 percent of consumers are looking for personalization in their service, requiring digitization of service processes and intelligence. For organizations aiming to deliver personalized experiences, Applied AI offers a transformative edge. But AI is only as powerful as the data it consumes. Three core data elements โ IMEI, diagnostics/performance, and make and model โ are critical to unlocking the degree of intelligence needed to move the needle with customers.
IMEI: The Anchor of Personalization and Security
In AI-powered ecosystems, International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) immediately identifies the customer, which can then be precisely correlated between the device and customer profiles stored in CRM systems. This ensures hyper-accurate targeting for contextual marketing campaigns and personalized service offerings.
Moreover, in high-stakes environments like device theft mitigation or network security, IMEI-based identification supports robust verification and protection protocols. It’s the digital fingerprint that keeps user experiences both personalized and secure.
Make and Model: Context is Everything
Knowing a deviceโs make and model adds critical context to any AI-driven decision. Whether evaluating device resale value, pushing the latest software update or recommending accessories, the accuracy of these interactions hinges on this foundational data. AI can compare performance norms across models, spot anomalies or fine-tune recommendations based on device capabilities.
This clarity also streamlines trade-in offers, pricing transparency, and upgrade programs, transforming customer journeys from generic to bespoke. When AI understands what the device is, it can better serve the userโs device-related needs.
Diagnostics & Performance: Real-Time Intelligence for Proactive Service
The real-time and historical diagnostics of a deviceโs hardware and software derived from embedded diagnostic technology in the myOperator app. Access to this data allows the operator to have an instant assessment of a customer device disposition, which can change over a matter of days or even minutes. AI models can analyze diagnostic data and deliver smarter solutions such as predictive maintenance, upgrade suggestions or real-time troubleshooting to customers.
For consumers, this translates into fewer service interruptions, faster support and tailored recommendations that anticipate problems before they arise or resolve them quickly when they do. For businesses, it means optimized operations, reduced churn and increased trust.
Elevating Customer Journeys Through Mobile Device Intelligence
Together, these data points form the backbone of mobile device intelligence, where AI doesnโt just respond, but anticipates and adapts. Whether it’s delivering personalized offers, enabling smarter service or enhancing security, the marriage of IMEI, diagnostics and device metadata ensures every mobile interaction is informed, intentional and impactful.
As AI continues to evolve, the value of these data streams will only grow, driving a future where every mobile experience is not only smart but deeply human-centered. MCEโs digital device lifecycle management (dDLM) technology and platform allow mobile operators to both capture these data points and apply AI meaningfully to customer device-related journeys โ like insurance attachment, warranty claims, device troubleshooting or trade-ins.
