How Baaz Bikes is Leveraging AI Across Their Operations Recently I asked one of our portfolio companies, Baaz Bikes co founder Anubhav Sharma, about their AI adoption journey. The breadth and depth of implementation is impressive – here's what they're doing: Customer Intelligence & Retention Customer DNA & Churn Analysis Using ML classification models (Logistic Regression, XGBoost, Neural Nets) to predict churn, segment riders, and trigger personalized retention campaigns – directly optimizing marketing spend and improving customer lifetime value. Operational Excellence Swap Demand Prediction Time-series models (ARIMA, LSTM, Prophet) combined with AutoML platforms (Amazon SageMaker, Vertex AI) to forecast battery demand by location and time. This optimizes inventory allocation and minimizes downtime – critical for a battery-swapping business. Predictive Maintenance IoT sensors capturing motor, battery, and environmental data feed ML/Deep Learning models to predict breakdowns before they happen. The result: proactive maintenance, extended asset life, and reduced repair costs. Support & Communication Multilingual Customer & Ops Support Leveraging Rakuten Gist Genie, Rakuten Shoptimiser, and Conversational ML Models (NLP) for multilingual rider support, spell/grammar correction for staff, and SOP-driven training. This enables faster resolution across India's diverse linguistic landscape. Enhanced Collaboration Slack/Teams AI copilots, meeting summarizers (Otter, Fireflies), and multilingual bots to translate tickets, auto-summarize meetings, and surface relevant documentation in real-time. Analytics & Insights AI Business Analytics & RCA Data warehouses (Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift) combined with BI tools (Looker, Power BI, Tableau) and anomaly detection using Rakuten AI for real-time monitoring, root cause analysis, and actionable insights that drive profitability. Data Pipeline Optimization AI-powered data quality monitors, Rakuten SixthSense, and ETL optimization tools ensure clean, reliable data for ML models and faster analytics. Developer Productivity Code Assistance & Quality GitHub Copilot, AI linting tools, and auto test generators accelerate development, automate reviews, reduce bugs, and improve onboarding for new engineers. What stands out: This isn't just AI for the sake of AI. Every use case ties directly to unit economics, customer experience, or operational efficiency. They're building AI into the DNA of how they operate. AI adoption doesn't have to be all-or-nothing. Baaz Bikes shows how to systematically deploy AI across the value chain – from customer-facing applications to internal operations – while using best-in-class tools for each specific use case. #AI #MachineLearning #StartupOperations #EVRevolution #Portfolio #BaazBikes Kalaari Capital
