About Afi Ai
What is Afi Ai?
Afi Ai is a data protection and backup platform designed specifically for cloud SaaS applications, including Microsoft 365 (Exchange, OneDrive, SharePoint, Teams) and Google Workspace (Gmail, Drive, Calendar). It protects against data loss from accidental deletion, malicious attacks, and other threats by creating secure, immutable backups.
What problem does it solve?
For businesses relying on Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, native tools do not offer comprehensive backup and recovery. Afi Ai addresses this by providing automated, scheduled backups (up to 3x daily or hourly), granular item-level restore, and archiving for deleted users. It also includes an AI engine for pre-emptive ransomware protection and ensures backup data remains intact and recoverable.
Who is it for?
Afi Ai is for IT administrators and managed service providers (MSPs) who need to manage data protection for multiple domains or tenants. It is designed for organizations that cannot afford data loss and need detailed audit logs and role-based access control. It is not for individual consumers or businesses looking for a basic on-premises backup solution.
Use cases
Organizations use Afi Ai to restore lost emails, files, and chats quickly; to archive data from departed employees at no extra cost; and to meet compliance requirements with immutable backups and detailed audit trails. Its multi-tenancy feature allows MSPs to monitor and manage all client backups from a single portal.
Key features
- Automated high-frequency backups — Backups are performed automatically, up to 3 times daily, with options for hourly or on-demand backups.
- Full-text search — The only backup solution allowing you to search the contents of emails and files, not just metadata.
- Granular restore — Restore individual items, folders, or entire accounts in-place or to another account.
- Ransomware protection — An AI engine performs pre-emptive backups during attacks and uses an immutable storage format.
- Automated archiving — Deleted G Suite or M365 users are archived automatically, and their data is retained indefinitely at no extra cost.
- Multi-tenancy — Manage and monitor backups for multiple domains or clients from a single interface.
- No failed backups — The engine is designed to be resistant to SaaS API faults, re-scheduling and retrying backups to meet SLAs.
