Perplexity

Monitor device connectivity

Stop digging through web portals to check if a sensor is online. You can now use `list_iot_devices` and `get_device_details` to pull real-time hardware status straight into your chat. Your AI client interprets this data instantly. It tells you exactly which modules are active and which ones have dropped off the network.

Manage SIM cards with Claude Desktop

Handle runaway hardware costs by triggering `pause_sim_data` the moment a device shows abnormal activity. You don't need to leave your workspace to cut off a rogue modem. Verify the status of every cellular link using `list_sim_cards`. If you need to bring a unit back online, just run `unpause_sim_data` to restore the connection.

Track data usage metrics

Analyze your monthly overhead by calling `get_billing_cycle_usage` to see exactly where your data budget is going. This tool pulls the raw numbers you need to avoid surprise overages. Use `get_daily_usage_stats` to look for patterns in your fleet's behavior. Claude Desktop processes these logs to highlight spikes before they become expensive problems.
