AUSTIN, Texas, Dec. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Silicon Labs (NASDAQ: SLAB), a global leader in secure, intelligent wireless technology, today announced that they have shipped four million FG23 SoCs for smart electricity meters as part of India’s Advanced Metering Initiative (AMI).

These FG23 SoCs use RF mesh technology from Wirepas, a leader in wireless connectivity solutions. The availability and performance of the chip has driven the adoption of highly reliable and efficient smart electricity metering solutions tailored to the specific needs of India’s dynamic and demanding power landscape.

“We are proud to support India’s ambitious Advanced Metering Initiative with best-in-class performance for the modern smart metering demands of India’s energy sector,” said Ross Sabolcik, Senior Vice President of the Industrial and Commercial Business Unit at Silicon Labs. “The FG23 SoC with Wirepas RF mesh offers distinct advantages, particularly in large, dense environments.”

Silicon Labs and Wirepas help keep the lights on in India

The FG23 SoC, incorporating Wirepas Mesh Sub-GHz connectivity, has become an ideal solution for AMI deployments due to its infinite scalability, ultra-low power consumption, and ultra-resilience. For example, the Wirepas network continuously adjusts to environmental changes, seamlessly optimizing data paths. Even after power outages, the network quickly restructures within minutes, reliably meeting utilities’ strict requirements for data delivery. Its capability to meet the demanding communication and reliability requirements of India’s smart metering landscape has enabled solution providers to successfully meet and exceed customer needs with a 99.9% proven reliability.

Compared to traditional mesh protocols, the Silicon Labs FG23 SoC with Wirepas RF mesh offers:

Cost Efficiency: Streamlined operation with low overhead, reducing both capital and operational expenses throughout the deployment’s lifecycle.Exceptional Reliability: Consistently achieves the 99.9% reliability required by utility providers, ensuring accurate meter data delivery to utility head-end systems every 15-minutes.Urban Resilience: Maintains reliable data transmission in densely populated urban areas, effectively managing heavy radio traffic and interference from surrounding meters.Rural Reach: Delivers robust performance across extensive distances, forming extended data chains that reliably span hundreds of kilometers in rural settings.

As part of the Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS) in India, smart metering projects must meet rigorous standards, requiring adherence to the specifications set out in the Standard Bidding Documents (SBD) and compliance to Indian Standard IS 15959.

Mili and Egnyte Partner to put Client Documents to work in Financial Advice

Published

By

The partnership brings Egnyte’s secure content platform and Mili’s AI agents together, so advice firms can deliver more comprehensive, personalized advice at scale.

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Oct. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Mili, an AI platform for wealth management firms, and Egnyte, a leader in secure content collaboration, intelligence, and governance, today announced a partnership that brings Mili’s AI agents to client documents in Egnyte. Advisors work from a file or a whole client folder alongside data from the firm’s CRM, portfolio and planning systems, under each advisor’s Egnyte permissions.

Kitces Research finds that reviewing client documents is the most common way advisors use AI. Its productivity research puts a new financial plan at 15 to 40 hours of team time.

Advisors use Mili’s agents to model the tax cost of moving a client’s accounts into the firm’s strategy, weigh a rebalance against unrealized gains, summarize a bonus agreement and build a financial snapshot from a statement. The agents link answers to their sources and flag what an analysis may still need.

David Ringler, Managing Director at Onyx Bridge Wealth Group ($1.6B+ AUM), said, “Egnyte and Mili are two valuable pieces of technology in our stack, and bringing them together has changed how our practice runs. Mili’s meeting prep and planning agents have become significantly better with Egnyte data behind them.”

Chirag Gandhi, Co-Founder and CEO of Mili, said, “How many clients an advice firm can serve well has long been capped. It is set by the work of understanding each client’s financial life. Agentic AI is changing that, helping advice firms uplift client capacity by accelerating the delivery of high-quality advice.”

Kyle Blair, Director of Global Financial Services at Egnyte, said, “Egnyte helps financial services firms accelerate critical business operations by turning document-heavy tasks into faster, connected, and revenue-generating workflows. Our partnership enables Mili’s AI agents to securely access and work on customer data within Egnyte for better business outcomes.”

The integration is live for mutual customers. Building on Mili’s work with hundreds of advice firms, it aims to put a firm’s full client knowledge into its advice.
