ADNOC Distribution has launched ARIF, an advanced AI-powered chatbot dedicated to investor relations, during Abu Dhabi Finance Week.

Named ARIF, which means “knowing” or “informed” in Arabic, the chatbot provides ADNOC Distribution investors with instant, interactive access to accurate financial insights, performance updates, and strategic information in both English and Arabic.

“ARIF’s launch underscores our commitment to innovation across our business. By combining the power of AI with our dedication to transparency, we are delivering a powerful resource for investors to gain deeper insights into our growth journey and make better informed decisions,” said Bader Saeed Al Lamki, CEO of ADNOC Distribution.

ARIF goes beyond traditional database-driven chatbots by providing dynamic responses to investor queries. It can compute custom financial ratios, synthesize performance metrics, instantly analyze growth indicators, and provide updates on ADNOC Distribution’s strategy, equity story, and sustainability initiatives, the Company stated in a press release on Thursday.

The chatbot’s outputs are derived exclusively from verified company information, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the insights provided, ADNOC Distribution noted.

Besides the current focus on investor relations, the company also plans to expand this tool capabilities and transform it into a comprehensive digital assistant for retail, business-to-business and other stakeholders.

ARIF is one of ADNOC Distribution’s portfolio of over 20 AI-enabled initiatives aimed to drive exceptional customer experiences, enhance operational efficiency, and support top-line growth, while also supporting sustainability efforts such as reducing carbon emissions.

Embracing innovation and AI reinforces ADNOC Distribution’s position as the UAE’s leading fuel distributor, mobility retailer, and convenience store operator, delivering long-term value for shareholders, the Company said.
