Predictika · Business internet quotes
An AI sales agent prepares a monthly quote for a business fiber internet order: the speed tier and contract term, Advanced WiFi with eero routers, the support options, the number of devices, static IP addresses, SIP trunking channels and a discount. Before the quote goes out, the agent sends it to Predictika, which checks it against a declarative model of the offer and returns a verdict, every reason and the monthly total it computed.
This validator models Fioptics business internet quotes, not just the scenarios shown below.
Any Fioptics business internet quote that touches these rules is in scope — not only the scenarios pictured here. Not covered: business phone, dedicated internet, Metro Ethernet and negotiated enterprise pricing. The tier names, promotional tier prices and terms, and the add-on product names follow public altafiber business pages. The add-on prices, the limits, the rules that link the options and the approval and discount limits are modeled from comparable business fiber offers and are illustrative, not published by altafiber.

What this means
Our assessment of what a typical rules-based CPQ (product rules, price rules and validation rules, as in Salesforce CPQ) does with the same cases. It is a judgment about effort and reliability, not a claim that nothing can be built.
| What the validator caught | Typical rules-based CPQ | Predictika |
|---|---|---|
| A term that depends on the speed tier | Only with care Each tier is offered on its own term, so the term is a rule that looks at the tier chosen. | The tier and the term are fields of one quote and are checked together on every call. |
| Support options that need another service | Only with care Premium Technical Support and Rapid Repair need Advanced WiFi, and eero routers need it too, so several choices depend on one other choice. | All the dependencies are read together and each finding names the missing service. |
| Limits that depend on another choice | Only with workarounds Static IPs and SIP channels are not quoted on the 600 Mbps tier, and the device limit applies only with Premium Technical Support. | The tier and the add-ons are looked up together on every call. |
| A stated total that must match the computed one | Only with workarounds The monthly total depends on the tier, the router count, the support options, the static IPs, the SIP channels and the discount, so it has to be recomputed before it is compared. | The total is computed inside the model and compared with the stated one on every call. |
| Approvals that stack on top of blocks | Only with workarounds A discount above 10 percent and a large SIP trunk group each need a person, and they are only relevant once the blocking errors are fixed. | Blocks and approvals are separate findings, returned together. |
| Every problem returned in one answer | Only with workarounds Rules tend to fire as the quote is saved or a step is completed, so a person often fixes one error and meets the next. | All findings come back together, so the agent can fix them in a single pass. |
Every rule is checked on every call, in any order the choices arrive; one problem never hides another. Blocking findings stop the quote; approval findings need a person to sign off; everything else is computed.
| 1 | The quote has a 2-year term; this speed tier is offered on a 3-year term. |
| 2 | Advanced WiFi is selected but the quote has no eero routers. |
| 3 | The quote has 3 eero routers but no Advanced WiFi service. |
| 4 | The quote has 7 eero routers; at most 6 are quoted per location. |
| 5 | Premium Technical Support and Rapid Repair are quoted only with Advanced WiFi. |
| 6 | Premium Technical Support covers up to 15 devices; the quote has 16 devices. |
| 7 | Static IP addresses are not quoted on the 600 Mbps tier. |
| 8 | The quote has 6 static IP addresses; at most 5 are quoted. |
| 9 | SIP trunking channels are quoted with the 1 Gig tier or faster. |
| 10 | 21 SIP channels is a large trunk group; voice engineering should confirm it. |
| 11 | The quote has 47 SIP channels; at most 46 are quoted. |
| 12 | A discount of 11 percent is above the 10 percent a sales rep can give; a manager should approve it. |
| 13 | A discount of 51 percent is outside the 0 to 50 percent range. |
| 14 | The quote states a monthly total of $270.00; the quoted prices give $271.00. |
