VutilityAI / Docs

VutilityAI documentation.

VutilityAI is the natural-language assistant built into CloudVU. This guide covers what it can do, how to ask, and example prompts to get you started.

Overview

Instead of clicking through menus and building dashboards, you ask VutilityAI a question in plain English. It reads live sensor data, searches the spec documentation, and drafts device configuration — all from inside CloudVU, with no extra license.

What it can do

Read live data

Ask for the current reading on any sensor, panel, or site and get the live value back in seconds.

Search the spec docs

Ask how a device works or how to configure it; it pulls the answer from the documentation.

Write device configuration

Describe the change you want — an alert threshold, a label, a setting — and it drafts the configuration for you to confirm.

Summarize history

Ask about trends, spikes, or anomalies across the 13-month data window and get a plain-English summary.

Getting started

Open CloudVU

Log in to your CloudVU workspace at the platform URL.

Open the assistant

Launch VutilityAI from within CloudVU — it is included on every account.

Ask in plain English

Type your question the way you would ask a colleague. No query language or dashboard setup required.

Example prompts

Live readings

“What is panel 3 pulling right now?”
“Show me today’s peak amperage on the main feed.”
“Which sites are online right now?”

Onboarding & configuration

“How do I onboard a VoltDrop™?”
“Set a 200A alert on the main feed.”
“Rename device 14 to ‘Kitchen sub-panel’.”

Analysis & troubleshooting

“Which circuits spiked last night?”
“Compare this month’s usage to last month.”
“Summarize energy use for Building B this week.”

Tips for best results

Be specific

Name the site, building, panel, or device so the assistant targets the right data.

Confirm before applying

When it drafts a configuration change, review it and confirm — nothing changes until you approve.

Ask follow-ups

It keeps context, so you can refine: “now show that as a daily average.”

It cites the docs

Answers about specs and setup come from the documentation, so you can trust and verify them.

Good to know

No extra license

VutilityAI is included on every CloudVU account at no additional cost.

Respects your access

It only sees the sites and data your role is permitted to see.

Across your site tree

It works over your whole multi-site tree, not just one location.

13 months of history

It can reason over the full 13-month rolling data window per channel.
