The team said real-world tests have proven that RWAI outperforms traditional software development models in practical efficiency, actual effectiveness and resolution times, reducing pre-project validation timelines from two-to-three months to less than two weeks.

The team also launched its AI arena platform. Unlike traditional benchmarks or model leader boards, the platform focuses on evaluating the actual effectiveness of AI solutions in real business operations, including metrics such as organizational costs, time efficiency, computing costs and compliance requirements.

The platform adopts a "challenger-champion" mechanism, where competing entities are not single models, but complete solutions, encompassing team configurations, workflows, agent combinations and context engineering. The best-practice workflows corresponding to winning solutions will be made public and available for replication.

China Southern Power Grid's internet service subsidiary utilized the RWAI platform to address the end-to-end safety management challenges of power grid infrastructure projects, ranging from planning to on-site execution. Faced with complex compliance requirements, traditional manual supervision on infrastructure projects had reached an efficiency bottleneck.

Using the platform, the company developed an intelligent risk control solution for on-site and subcontractor management, increasing hidden risk detection rates by approximately 40 percent and boosting risk warning accuracy to 92 percent. The company and research team are now preparing to advance a demonstration project for generative AI across the full lifecycle of construction planning.

The company's senior engineer Hu Rui said the RWAI platform has successfully bridged the gap between AI technology and deployment, while significantly reducing trial-and-error costs. The system has transformed engineering management from reactive response to proactive intelligent control, using AI to support high-quality power grid construction.

Jiangsu Eastern Shenghong has also used the RWAI platform. As a petrochemical manufacturer, it has long-faced challenges such as integrating knowledge in traditional process industries, applying general-purpose AI to core business operations and a lack of controllability in decisionmaking by large language models.

Leveraging the RWAI platform, Eastern Shenghong integrated 30 years of production process knowledge with data from the full industry chain, overcoming the high-compliance barriers to build an industrial large model that truly understands the business.

Through multimodal fault monitoring and prediction, the company has significantly reduced unplanned downtime on key production lines and can dynamically recommend optimal production scheduling, achieving cost reductions, efficiency improvements and process optimization.

Yang Tianwei, vice-chairman of the company and general manager of its AI business unit, said that by using the RWAI platform's evaluation capabilities, they have transformed internally validated, high-quality model capabilities into a library of reusable, billable and composable products.

"This not only activates Eastern Shenghong's own intelligent development, but also provides a field-proven and best-practice solution for deploying large models in the process industries," Yang added.

The RWAI platform now covers multiple application scenarios including industrial forecasting systems, document review, risk control and research report generation. Its implementations have already been deployed in projects for some Fortune Global 500 companies.

The research team said that the platform will also supply real-world human-computer interaction data to support large language model development and academic research.
