From Automation to AI: Powering the Next Generation of Campus Operations
From Automation to AI: Powering the Next Generation of Campus Operations
Insights AI promises to transform campus work—but what does that look like in practice? In this session, we’ll explore how Transact (now Illumia) is making Insights AI real for higher education by combining AI-powered insights with modern, efficient campus operations.
You’ll get an overview of the Illumia AI Campus Ecosystem (ACE) and see how tools like Transact Insights AI act as a personal data analyst—answering natural language questions, identifying anomalies, and delivering real-time predictions such as student wait times. We’ll also show how MCP servers, data APIs, and Illumia integrations enable institutions to connect their own AI platforms and deliver personalized AI experiences for staff, faculty, and students.
This session provides a high-level overview of how AI, automation, and solutions from Illumia streamline operations and prepare your institution for an agentic AI future.
