Inclusion recognises inploi’s ability to meet the complex needs of global enterprise customers, including the Compass Group and AS WatsonAdoption of inploi’s candidate experience software has accelerated post-pandemic

LONDON, June 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — UK software scale-up inploi has been recognised in the Potential Challenger Zone in the 2024 Fosway 9-Grid™ for Talent Acquisition. The news follows a strong year of contract wins against much larger and more-established vendors.

inploi’s candidate experience platform has been recognised by Fosway for its performance, potential, market presence, human-first methodology, and personal approach. With a host of recent client wins – including The Compass Group, Bourne Leisure (Haven and Warner Leisure Hotels), the AS Watson Group, and wagamama – demonstrating their progress, inploi will also soon announce two significant new contracts in the forthcoming month following competitive tender and pitch processes.

The platform addresses deficiencies in the candidate experience provided by incumbent talent attraction technologies. By integrating with Applicant Tracking Systems, inploi delivers substantial reductions in recruitment marketing spend, improves candidate quality, accelerates time to interview and hire, and realises material time savings for enterprise talent teams.

With products encompassing social media and programmatic job advertising, conversion optimised careers pages, AI-powered chatbot technology, and powerful reporting and analytics tools, inploi empowers brands to reach and engage the future of their workforce effectively and efficiently.

“In a tight job market, developing deeper insights on candidates gives hopeful employers a cutting edge, but there is a need to go beyond just statistics and many candidates feel disconnected from potential employers”, said David Wilson, CEO and founder of Fosway Group. “By leveraging personalised assessments and emphasizing individual qualities, inploi looks to bridge the gap between candidates and employers. Congratulations to the team on their inclusion this year as a Potential Challenger.”

Martin Wonham, wagamama talent acquisition and employer brand manager, added: “inploi has completely overhauled our front-end process for candidates, making it a seamless, engaging, and market leading experience. The company has become an invaluable partner to our talent acquisition team and an integral part of our forward-looking strategy when it comes to our attraction methods and front-end candidate experience.”

Matthew de la Hey, CEO of inploi, added: “In a fiercely competitive talent market, companies using outdated strategies and legacy technologies will fall behind their competitors. Talent acquisition technology has not kept pace with innovation in other spheres, and organisations are paying the price. We’re changing that, working with a growing number of major enterprise clients to deliver material improvements across the board at a fraction of the cost – and substantially more quickly than incumbent providers.

“We use AI and automation where appropriate, but believe fundamentally that it should be used to free up humans to be more human, rather than performing low value-add, repetitive tasks,” de la Hey added. “Part of the beauty is inploi’s ability to integrate with existing technology rather than replace it.”

In addition to the Fosway recognition, inploi has also been shortlisted for the Talent Tech Innovation of the Year and the Candidate Experience Solution of the Year for this year’s TIARA Awards.

Redefining motion capture with innovative flying action cameras and the award-winning HOVERAir Beacon

LAS VEGAS, Dec. 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Recently, Zero Zero Robotics, a pioneering tech company in intelligent devices, announced their participation at CES 2025, where the company will showcase its HOVERAir X1 series of self-flying cameras at booth # 56045, Venetian, Level 2, Halls A-D. Designed to simplify aerial cinematography, the HOVERAir lineup includes the pocket-sized HOVERAir X1, the action-focused HOVERAir X1 PRO, and the Professional grade HOVERAir X1 PROMAX. Zero Zero will also celebrate its 2025 CES Innovation Awards Honoree title in Audio/Video Components & Accessories for the HOVERAir Beacon, an intelligent modular controller that redefines precision tracking and control.

The introductory model in the HOVERAir lineup, HOVERAir X1, weighs just 125g and delivers an effortless aerial photography experience with no controller or app required. With over five pre-programmed flight paths, including Hover, Follow, Zoom Out, Orbit, and Bird’s Eye, it’s perfect for capturing cinematic moments in everyday life. Its 2.7K video resolution, palm launch capabilities, and robust computer vision algorithms make it the ultimate everyday and travel companion.

Building on the success of the X1, Zero Zero introduced the HOVERAir X1 PRO and HOVERAir X1 PROMAX in August 2024 to meet the demands of action enthusiasts and professional creators. The X1 PRO offers 4K/60fps video with a 104° field of view for versatile shooting conditions. The X1 PROMAX delivers stunning 8K/30fps video with 4K/120fps slow-motion capabilities, a 1/1.3″ CMOS sensor, and 14 stops of dynamic range for cinematic footage. Both models feature advanced AI tracking, Level 5 wind resistance, and a lightweight, durable HEM™ frame.

“Our vision has always been to create flying cameras that are effortless, intelligent, and fun to use,” said MQ Wang, Founder & CEO of Zero Zero Robotics. “The HOVERAir series puts professional-grade aerial cinematography in the palm of your hand, whether you’re capturing casual moments or pushing creative boundaries.”

Adding to these innovations, the HOVERAir Beacon enhances control and precision for the series. The Beacon features a patented Tri-state modular design with two detachable joysticks, enabling one-handed and full-featured two-handed controls. It activates HoverLink™ for precise tracking with up to a 1 km transmission range, while the 1.78″ OLED display allows real-time footage monitoring. Equipped with AI-powered noise cancellation, the Beacon sets a new standard for audio and video recording during aerial shoots.

“We’re excited to bring the HOVERAir X1 series and Beacon to CES 2025, where we’re redefining how motion is captured, tracked, and controlled,” continued Wang. “These tools empower creators and adventurers to document their journeys with breathtaking precision and ease.”
