Aira’s Naavik One automation platform on Nokia MantaRay SMO meets operators’ need for automation that proves outcomes.

Aira Technologies, an AI-native company reimagining how wireless networks are designed, deployed, and operated, today announced a strategic collaboration with Nokia. By integrating Aira’s Naavik One platform with Nokia’s MantaRay SMO automation stack, the collaboration aims to bring agentic, AI-native capability to telco.

This collaboration combines Nokia’s leadership in open, multi-vendor RAN management with Aira’s Naavik One platform, built for evidence-driven, closed-loop automation. These dual strengths will help operators to move from “automation scripts” to automation that proves outcomes.
