'''Advanced Intelligent Tape''' ('''AIT''') is a discontinued high-speed, high-capacity [[magnetic tape data storage]] format developed and controlled by [[Sony]]. It competed mainly against the [[Digital Linear Tape|DLT]], [[Linear Tape-Open|LTO]], [[Digital Data Storage|DAT/DDS]], and [[VXA]] formats. AIT uses a cassette similar to [[Video8]]. '''Super AIT''' ('''SAIT''') is a higher capacity variant using wider tape in a larger, single-spool cartridge. Both AIT and SAIT use the [[helical scan]] method of reading and writing the tape.
