Meet Ask Odin: from Norse god to AI assistant for maintenance

“Generative AI is the most powerful technology I’ve seen in my 30 years in IT,” says Lars Bork Dylander, SOA People Denmark’s CEO. “It’s fundamentally reshaping industries, even SAP itself, and how we work with processes, data, and clients.”

Lars emphasises that businesses, especially those in the mid-market, need to approach AI with curiosity and a willingness to adapt. “Companies need to explore how AI can benefit their operations and start integrating it strategically,” he advises.

Named after the Nordic god known for wisdom, Ask Odin is 2BM Software’s AI-powered assistant designed specifically for maintenance operations. As Lars humorously notes, “He was a Nordic god, and now he’s an AI assistant. I don’t know if that’s a promotion or a demotion!”

The AI co-pilot simplifies everything from document analysis to SAP data interpretation, all through an intuitive chat interface available on the maintenance technician’s mobile device.
