01 / See it in action

Ask a question. Get an answer from yCloudx.

Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot or another AI tool that supports MCP connectors, then ask about your maintenance in plain language: which assets broke down most, which PMs are due, what is low in stock, which licences expire soon. It is read only, and each person sees only what they can already see in yCloudx.

Your admin decides

Switch AI tools on for your organisation and choose what they may read. Try switching one off, then ask about it.

Read only

AI tools can read, never add, change or delete records.

Who can see what

Each question runs as that user: only their sites, and only the modules they have in yCloudx.

Checked every time

Access is re-read from the database on every question, so changes apply immediately.

Secure sign-in

Each person connects with their own yCloudx login, using OAuth with PKCE. No shared passwords or keys.

Stolen-token protection

Codes work once. Reusing an old token cuts off the whole connection.

You approve each connection

A yCloudx screen shows who you are signed in as and what the tool will read, before you allow it.

Admin control

Turn AI tools on or off and choose which data they may read, from assets and work orders to licences and failure risk.

Disconnect any time

Users can disconnect in their AI tool, or ask the admin to remove access.

Illustrative conversation with sample data. Answers come from the records each user can access in yCloudx. Check AI answers before acting on them.

02 / How it works

Set up once. Then just ask.

Your admin switches AI tools on and chooses which data they may read. Each person then connects their own AI tool with their own yCloudx login.

  1. Admin turns it on

    Allow AI connectors for your organisation and choose what they may read: assets, corrective and preventive work orders, spare parts, licences, bookings and failure risk.

  2. User connects and approves

    Add yCloudx as a connector in Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot or another MCP-compatible tool. A yCloudx screen shows who you are signed in as and what the tool will read, before you allow it.

  3. Ask in plain language

    Ask questions the way you would ask a colleague. Answers come from the yCloudx records you can access, with work order and asset numbers so you can find them in yCloudx.

03 / What you can ask

Questions your team asks every day.

Whatever your admin shares, your AI tool can look up, count, rank and summarise.

Breakdowns and corrective work

Open jobs, response times and the assets that keep failing.

Which assets broke down most this quarter?

Preventive maintenance

PMs due, overdue and completed, by site, team or asset.

Which PMs are overdue by more than a week?

Assets and their history

Where an asset is, its details and everything done to it.

Show me the history of chiller CH-02.

Spare parts and stock

What is low, what is out and where parts are used.

Which spare parts are below minimum stock?

Licences and bookings

Certificates and permits about to expire, and upcoming bookings.

Which licences expire in the next 30 days?

Failure risk

The assets Cloudy Predict rates most likely to fail, and why.

Which assets have the highest failure risk?

FAQ

AI Connectors questions

What are yCloudx AI Connectors?

AI Connectors let you connect an AI tool such as Claude, ChatGPT or Copilot to yCloudx, so you can ask questions about your maintenance data in plain language and get answers from your own yCloudx records.

Which AI tools can I use?

Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot and other AI tools that support MCP (Model Context Protocol) connectors. Whether connectors are available can depend on the AI tool and the plan you use with it.

Can the AI tool change anything in yCloudx?

No. AI Connectors are read only. The AI tool can look up, count and summarise records, but it cannot add, change or delete anything.

Who can see what?

Each question runs as the person who asked it. They see only their own sites and only the modules they have in yCloudx. Access is checked again on every question, so if a user's access changes, it applies immediately.

How do users sign in?

Each person connects with their own yCloudx login using OAuth with PKCE, and approves the connection on a yCloudx screen that shows what the tool will read. There are no shared passwords or keys. Sign-in codes work only once, and reusing an old token cuts off the whole connection.

Can our admin control it?

Yes. Your admin can turn AI connectors on or off for your organisation and choose which data AI tools may read, such as assets, work orders, spare parts, licences, bookings and failure risk. Users can disconnect at any time.

Is this the same as Cloudy AI?

No. Cloudy AI is built into yCloudx. AI Connectors let you use your own AI tool with yCloudx data. You can use either, or both.

Should we check the answers?

Yes. Answers come from your yCloudx records, and they include work order and asset numbers so you can check them in yCloudx before acting on them.

Ask your yCloudx data a question.

Book a demo and we will show you AI Connectors working with Claude, ChatGPT or Copilot.
