TORONTO, Aug. 17, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Meeranda, a privately held Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions provider, serving both Small and Medium Businesses (SMBs) and Global Multinational Corporations (MNCs), announced today its emergence onto the global stage, with the promise to disrupt the worldwide customer experience through its cutting-edge AI technology and research advancements.

Meeranda aims to address a problem that has long frustrated global organizations and their clients; chatbots along with their half-baked AI solutions. A recent IPSOS1 survey revealed that 77% of customers find chatbots frustrating and 88% prefer speaking to a live agent. Another survey, conducted by Clutch2, revealed that 69% of customers encountered irrelevant phone options and 70% pressed “0” to speak with a live agent. Forrester Consulting3, on the other hand, revealed that 30% abandon a brand following a poor chatbot experience and 73% cancel their orders altogether.

Meeranda aims to also address the issue with startups having the tendency to hire too early and larger organizations hiring too many customer support, sales, and marketing staff. Moreover, Meeranda works to tackle the quality issues encountered with outsourcing as well.

“We are not talking about a small problem here,” said Mr. Raji Wahidy, Co-Founder and CEO of Meeranda. “The numbers are quite telling. We have over 69% levels of customer dissatisfaction. Chatbots are clearly frustrating many people out there due to the lack of concrete and relevant responses returned. Moreover, people despise waiting on-hold for a long time, to speak with a live agent. We have heard that directly from our partners, whom we have presented Meeranda to. They love the potential. They love the personalized experience through our Human-Like AI. Most importantly, they love the fact that we are addressing their pain points, saving them unnecessary costs, helping them market and sell their products and services, and to cap it off, increasing their customers’ satisfaction. There is a reason why Meeranda, although in its early stages, has secured existing agreements and strategic partnerships across six countries and seven industries, thus far.”

The Meeranda team is made up of entrepreneurs and senior level executives with a successful track record in innovation and business operations, boasting over 70 years of combined international experience. The team has deep expertise in Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Data Driven Modeling. The Meeranda team also has over 20 global awards and recognition from public, private, and government institutions; including the United Nations, the Canadian and the United States’ governments.

“The recent strides in AI advancement have paved the way for enhanced customer experiences,” said Mr. Jayson Ng, Co-Founder and Chief Research Officer of Meeranda. “We are on a mission to foster inclusive customer engagement across diverse cultural landscapes. We envision the adaptability to businesses’ unique requirements, which will not only bolster their brand representation, but also cater to a wide array of needs and use cases. During Meeranda‘s development, significant breakthroughs have been achieved, including the creation of real-time Human-Like AI agents with remarkably natural speech patterns.”

Meeranda will commence its Seed Funding round by the end of August 2023.

Specified Technologies Inc. Unveils Firestop Clash Management and Locator Updates

November 23, 2024

SOMERVILLE, N.J., Nov. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Specified Technologies Inc. has announced their latest Firestop Clash Management (FCM) and Firestop Locator (FSL) releases. FCM automates the process of locating and assigning firestop solutions to conditions within Autodesk® Revit®, enabling firestop novices to find firestop solutions like a firestop expert. In this latest release, STI has further expanded the capabilities of FCM by integrating it with their firestop documentation and compliance tool, Firestop Locator (FSL). FSL enables contractors and facilities’ teams to document the status, location, and products used for any and all fire life safety services across a building.

In the latest update for FSL, teams can now create custom items to track any service on their project beyond the base six (Penetration, Joint, Extinguisher, Door, Damper, and Barrier). Teams can also modify the base six items to include project specific inspection and maintenance requirements and any other details that they would like to be tracked.

With this new integration, decisions made during the design phase of a building using FCM are seamlessly passed into FSL during the construction phase, giving implementation teams a jump start on work to be done. This integration also improves data integrity and eliminates the guesswork in the field of determining what firestop systems and products are to be used where.

“We’re proud of the latest releases of FCM and FSL and look forward to continuing to support the fire life safety community,” says Justin Pine, Sr. Manager of Software & Services.

Specified Technologies Inc. promotes life and building safety by developing innovative fire protection systems and accompanying digital tools that help stop the spread of fire, smoke, and hot gases. Our SpecSeal® and EZ Path® product lines are engineered for easy installation and deliver powerful performance, often resulting in lower installed costs. Since firestopping is our only business, we concentrate all our resources on providing the highest quality, fully tested, innovative firestopping solutions.

Hankyung.com introduces: MecKare, Leading the AI-powered Innovation in Health Monitoring Solution

– Leading efficient care management for the elderly with unimpeded smartcare

https://img.hankyung.com/pdsdata/pr.hankyung.com/uploads/2024/11/image01-1.png

SEOUL, South Korea, Nov. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — JCF Technology is a startup that independently developed ‘MecKare’, a radar sensor that measures biological signals in a non-contact manner, and provides a platform service that automatically connects users and guardians in two-way emergency situations through an artificial intelligence analysis system. Since its establishment in 2016, it has developed a highly accurate non-contact multi-biological radar sensor through many years of technology accumulation, and succeeded in commercializing the product for the first time in 2021.

MecKare uses microwave radar and micro-Doppler signal processing technology to measure the user’s heart rate, respiratory rate, and skin temperature within 16.4 ft in real time. The sensor can measure human body movement patterns using precise and highly responsive thermal infrared rays and can detect falls through pattern analysis based on changes in human movement. In particular, the movement and change of thermal infrared rays within the measurement range are detected in real time, and the trend of biomarkers that appear as advance signs before a person falls can be checked through differential motion detection that measures the user’s movement pattern. It provides an alarm in advance by predicting before a person falls, enabling accuracy and quick response to accidents. As a result, it is possible to prevent safety accidents in the elderly by detecting emergency situations such as lonely death, cardiac arrest, breathing difficulties, and falls. Additionally, unlike other existing wearable devices such as smart watches or bands, MecKare does not need to be worn or attached to the body, so it can be used remotely via Wi-Fi without causing stress to the user.

https://img.hankyung.com/pdsdata/pr.hankyung.com/uploads/2024/11/image02.png

MecKare can be installed in the bedroom, bathroom, living room, or entrance of a home or facilities(Assisted Living, Nursing Home, etc) to provide 24-hour monitoring without a camera and detect abnormal signs in advance using a biometric information analysis algorithm and deliver them to the guardian.

MecKare’s radar biometric sensor is recognized in the global market for its technology as a device that obtains precisely customized biometric information while overcoming spatial constraints and without risk of privacy infringement. MecKare is being supplied to senior care facilities in Australia, Germany, Poland, Saudi Arabia, and China. In 2025, MecKare plans to conduct verification of vital signs such as attendance, fall prevention, and asthma of elderly people living in hospitals or assisted living in conjunction with local PPOs/HMOs in the United States.

In summary, MecKare is a system that reduces user inconvenience and enables management of multiple patients. By being able to provide personalized health data analysis results, it will serve as an opportunity to change the market paradigm towards preventive smart care. We expect MecKare’s A.I to play a role as an innovator that complements, rather than replaces, humans in care settings.
