## Summary

Calix announced on October 27, 2026, that it has released a communications language model on Hugging Face. The model is part of a broader initiative to develop **Calix Gems**, specialized AI models tailored for specific tasks like threat detection, network troubleshooting, and subscriber experience optimization. These models will run on Calix’s **Calix One** platform, which already supports over 5 billion service provider workflows annually and processes more than a petabyte of data daily.

Calix claims its AI-driven solutions deliver measurable improvements for customers, including an **80%+ boost in operational efficiency** (Verizon), a **500% increase in incremental monthly recurring revenue** (Home Telecom), and an **88 Net Promoter Score** (Chariton Valley). The company emphasizes its shift toward **agentic AI**—specialized models optimized for niche tasks rather than general-purpose ones. Calix also highlights its partnership with Google Cloud for AI deployment, with plans to expand Calix Gems in 2027.
