Short answer

Can I audit my facility access using AI?

Yes. You can ask your AI to pull specific entry logs or check if doors are currently locked or open. This lets you spot unusual activity or hardware issues without manual log searching.

Security outcomes

What you get from your AI

Your AI handles the data retrieval so you can focus on the response.

LOGS

Review entry history

The AI pulls specific timestamps and user IDs from recent events. You get a clean list of who entered which door and when.

STATUS

Check door states

Ask if a specific entrance is currently secured. The AI checks the real-time hardware status for you.

ALERTS

Identify security alarms

The AI scans for recent alarms or forced entries. It highlights the specific door and time the issue occurred.

HUMAN

Manual intervention

The AI cannot physically lock a door or reset an alarm. You must use your Brivo dashboard for hardware commands.

The workflow

What your AI does when you ask for an audit.

The AI acts as a bridge between your chat window and your Brivo hardware.

  1. Fetch event history

    The AI pulls a list of recent movements and access attempts from your facility.

    list_access_events
  2. Verify door state

    It checks the current physical status of a specific entry point.

    get_door_status
  3. Filter for issues

    The AI looks through the retrieved logs to find specific alarms or unauthorized attempts.

    list_access_events
  4. Report findings

    The AI sees whatever is available in your Brivo event logs through the list_access_events tool.
