# How GENI Works
## How GENI Works
GENI is not a single AI model — it is a stack of AI technologies working together. According to Appvance, GENI leverages **Appvance’s patented AIQ Digital Twin**, **multiple specially tuned transformer models**, and a **proprietary code generator**.
*The AI Script Generation / Blueprint Designer UI introduced in AIQ 5.0.*
### The GENI process
1. A business analyst writes **step-by-step test cases in plain English** — the same way manual testers document them.
2. GENI’s transformer models understand the **natural language, page layouts, and visual cues** in those steps.
3. The steps are compared against the **AIQ Digital Twin** — an offline, AI-built model of the application.
4. A proprietary code generator produces **executable test scripts** — in bulk, hundreds of test cases at a time.
### What is the AIQ Digital Twin?
The Digital Twin is created by **AI Script Generation (AISG)**: AIQ’s AI explores the application like a user would, discovers pages and states, and asks for input (for example via CSV data sets) to dig deeper. The result — previously called a “Blueprint” — is saved as a `.abp` file. Because of GENI, this is no longer a mere map of the app: it is a **true Digital Twin**.
**Did you know?** AISG itself is powered by some **twenty underlying AI models** that together generate actual test scripts after a single training session with a QA engineer.
### Data privacy
- GENI models are **private and fixed** — they do **not** learn from your application or data.
- No data is shared between clients, and no PII is stored.
- All models run on a **GPU-centric AI server**, with on-prem and cloud deployment options.
- AISG self-healing ML learns each time a script runs, but only to build accessor data for *your* application.
