AI Associate AI Capabilities in CRM Practice Question
A company has a custom AI model for sentiment analysis and wants to use it in Salesforce without rebuilding. Which approach should they take?
⚠ Common exam trap
A common mix-up: candidates confuse MuleSoft (an integration tool) with a model deployment service, or assume that any external model must be rebuilt in Apex, when BYOM is specifically designed to avoid that.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Use Bring Your Own Model (BYOM) for Einstein
Bring Your Own Model (BYOM) for Einstein allows companies to deploy their own pre-trained AI models directly into Salesforce without rebuilding them. This approach leverages Salesforce's infrastructure for inference while keeping the custom model intact, making it the ideal solution for integrating a custom sentiment analysis model.
