Build and run predictive, prescriptive and generative AI with choice across models, frameworks and hybrid infrastructure
Overview
Turn AI into measurable business advantage
Enterprises gain value from AI by combining predictive, prescriptive and generative AI. IBM watsonx.ai unites machine learning, Decision Optimization and generative AI from Red Hat AI Enterprise, applying the right intelligence to every decision and scaling innovation with speed, choice and control over models, frameworks and hybrid infrastructure.
- Extend established machine learning and optimization workloads with generative AI without creating a separate AI strategy or technology stack.
- Use predictive AI, Decision Optimization and generative AI together to apply the right intelligence to each business decision.
- Choose the models, frameworks and hybrid infrastructure that fit each workload without locking into a single provider or technology ecosystem.
IBM has been named a Leader in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ AI Platforms for Data Science and Machine Learning (DSML) Platforms, for the second year in a row. IBM believes that this recognition reflects the organization’s continued focus on helping enterprises operationalize AI with governance, flexibility and measurable business outcomes.
Features
Turn AI capabilities into production-ready business value
Develop machine learning models for forecasting, classification, risk and analytics, and use Decision Optimization to improve planning, scheduling and resource allocation.
Build RAG applications that retrieve relevant business context and use it to generate more accurate, useful and explainable responses.
Use prompt engineering, tuning and other customization techniques to adapt models to specialized tasks, organizational knowledge and domain requirements.
Run validated models on supported hardware and infrastructure, with production inference designed for performance and scale across hybrid environments.
Use open-source, low-code and pro-code approaches across development, deployment, monitoring and retraining so teams can move from experimentation to repeatable production use.
Create and deploy AI services and model endpoints that can be integrated into enterprise applications and agent experiences, including watsonx Orchestrate.
Use cases
Build, customize and run AI for enterprise workloads
Get one-stop access to capabilities that span the AI development lifecycle with built-in performance and scalability.
Build forecasting, classification, risk, anomaly-detection and predictive-maintenance models using enterprise data.
Use Decision Optimization to improve planning, scheduling, supply-chain decisions and resource allocation under real business constraints.
Unlock enterprise knowledge with watsonx.data to retrieve governed context for search and RAG, and use watsonx.ai to deliver accurate, context-aware answers.
Adapt models to industry terminology, organizational knowledge and task-specific requirements using prompting, RAG and tuning techniques.
Improve planning, scheduling, supply-chain decisions and resource allocation using decision optimization.
