Forrester Total Economic Impact™ Study Quantifies Arria NLG Value

Arria NLG

Arria NLG, the worldwide leader in natural language technologies, appeared in a Forrester Research report that found that organizations invested in Arria to reduce manual work, enable machine-level scaling, and facilitate the distribution of more efficient, accurate, and connected insights across their organizations. The Total Economic Impact™ of Arria Natural Language Generation, authored by Forrester, details how Arria improved customer acquisition and retention, enabled a higher volume of business, or improved decision-making for each organization it interviewed. Financial analysis found that the composite organization experiences benefits of $4.53 million over three years versus costs of $1.47 million, resulting in a net present value (NPV) of $3.06 million and an ROI of 209 percent. “Arria’s NLG technology provides machine-speed analysis of large volumes of structured data and translates that data into natural language data insights,” said Sharon Daniels, CEO, Arria NLG. “The findings presented in Forrester’s research validate and quantify the value of natural language generation as well as Arria’s ability to foster data literacy, democratize analytics, and provide enterprises in all markets with the competitive advantage of access to insights.” Arria identifies key insights and provides configurable, out-of-the-box narratives to communicate them to decisionmakers in real time, providing both automation and data literacy benefits for customers. By generating instantaneous data stories to augment dashboard views and visualizations at the click of a button, Arria eliminates a large portion of manual work previously undertaken by Business intelligence (BI) analysts. According to Forrester, Arria NLG reduced the manual report generation labor by 80 percent, saving up to 60 percent in time spent by BI analysts and their supported decision-makers. Furthermore, intelligent automation removes any risk of human error in reporting and written analyses, increasing annual revenue up to 2 percent. NLG produces data-driven narratives that ensure reporting accuracy and improve operational efficiencies. “Data literacy is paramount and by streamlining the accuracy and democratization of data insights across organizations, Arria helps reduce the cost of creating strategic intelligence that everyone can access and action,” added Daniels. For fund managers and financial advisors, Forrester estimates that Arria NLG reduces the manual resources required for written commentary by as much as 85 percent. An executive director at a financial services company shared: “We analyze dozens of data points for thousands of companies. To be able to write a narrative summary every month for each one, we’d have to hire an army. We wouldn’t be able to scale that.” Forrester noted that organizations also attributed new business to Arria’s ability to create a new type of product or service for external customers. Others were able to deliver their reporting and insights services faster or at a higher volume, improving the quality of service and creating additional revenue. With global organizations managing ever-growing data streams, sifting through information, identifying key insights, and sharing them are critical but time-consuming and costly processes. Arria NLG is the innovative and transformative technology that businesses need to streamline processes, increase data literacy, and improve decision-making. Arria’s technology will not only add value for employees, but also enhance processes, delight customers, and strengthen the bottom line.

Octane11 Raises $4.5 Million to Accelerate Growth of the Connected Data Platform for B2B

Octane11

Octane11, the B2B data platform company bringing simplicity to enterprise analytics, announced today the closing of a $4.5 million seed financing led by Javelin Venture Partners, with participation from BDMI, Honeystone Ventures, Plug and Play Ventures, Base Ventures, Circadian Ventures, and AperiamVentures. A number of industry insiders, including Erik Matlick, CEO of Bombora, Zain Jaffer, Founder of Vungle and Partner at Blue Field Capital, Eric Roza, former CEO of Datalogix and leader of Oracle’s Data Cloud division, and Amar Goel, Founder and Chairman of PubMatic, also participated in the round. The new funding will accelerate Octane11’s mission to help B2B sales, marketing, and product executives spend less time wrangling data and more time delivering results. Business-to-Business (“B2B”) enterprises have adopted more software tools than ever across all departments - using an average of 89 applications per company according to Okta’s Businesses at Work Report 2022. This diversity of applications has delivered great new functionality, but has also caused terrible confusion across tools and teams, leading to an explosion of costs for data infrastructure and the personnel required to synthesize it. The Octane11 platform solves this challenge by mapping fragmented data across a myriad of tools and teams to its proprietary, B2B-specific data model. The Octane11 solution not only reduces the cost of managing siloed data by as much as 80%, but also unlocks a range of industry insights, granular benchmarks, and AI-driven recommendations. Launched in late 2020, the Octane11 platform has already been used by its B2B clients to analyze over $500 million in revenue opportunities across 400,000 prospect accounts. “Synthesizing enterprise data is a massive, unsolved challenge that is becoming increasingly urgent,” said Octane11 Founder and CEO Dan Rosenberg. “Previously, as Chief Strategy Officer of a unicorn B2B software company operating across 16 cities, I felt this pain personally and pulled together a team of B2B data, operations, and SaaS experts to solve it.” According to Market Data Forecast, the market for data engineering services - the people costs related to synthesizing enterprise data - is over $40 billion, twice the size of the data warehousing market, and is expected to grow at over 18% per year through 2028. Meanwhile, the cost of hiring data specialists like Data Analysts, Data Engineers and Data Scientists, has exploded in recent years, making Octane11 an ideal solution for driving cost efficiency and business impact quickly. “We had a complex martech and salestech stack with over a dozen legacy tools that required tons of manual work to analyze - and yet we wanted to keep adding, testing and learning,” said Pete Davies, SVP Revenue Strategy at Cardlytics, an Octane11 client. “Octane11 gave us holistic visibility across all our tools in an easy-to-digest format that we could share across the entire team and compare to industry norms.” “The challenge of harnessing fragmented B2B data at scale is already massive and only getting worse with new channels emerging daily,” said Javelin Partner Noah Doyle, who will be joining Octane11’s Board of Directors. “Octane11 is building a unique network-style solution that complements other industry tools and can scale rapidly.” To learn more about how Octane11 can help you wrangle your B2B data and drive more actionable insights and collaboration, visit www.octane11.com and follow us on LinkedIn. To review open positions at Octane11, please visit www.octane11.com\careers Octane11 was represented by Robert Odell of Odell Girton Siegel LLC.

Octane11 is backed by Javelin Venture Partners, BDMI, Honeystone Ventures, Circadian Ventures, Plug and Play Ventures, Base Ventures, and AperiamVentures.

Thousands of hours of work by our world-class team have gone into making this moment possible, and we are honored to be supported by a number of investors and partners who share our vision for transforming the geolocation industry – thank you to them for playing such an important role in helping us reach this milestone. “It’s worth noting that this is just the start, the first chapter in our story. In a matter of weeks we’ll also be live in the USA, and then the rollout of both Xpoint Verify, and Xpoint Lite, our geolocation product designed and built for Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) operators, will continue at pace. We have a very exciting future ahead, and I’m delighted we’ve already reached such an important chapter in our history with SkillOnNet.” “We’re proud to work with Xpoint as our official geolocation technology partner,” said Maor Nutkevitch, Senior Vice President Corporate Development at SkillOnNet. “We were attracted to Xpoint’s technology that helps our consumers engage with our platforms safely and securely, and the fact that our working relationship is rooted in a true partnership.” Xpoint’s innovative geolocation solutions provide technology that enables sportsbooks, iGaming and Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) operators to meet their regulatory obligations, helping engage with their customers safely and securely. Xpoint Verify is the real money gaming operator’s geolocation product of choice, while Xpoint Lite is specifically designed for DFS operators.

Digital Cities Index 2022: European Cities outperformed with open data projects and tightly defined sustainability schemes

Economist Impact

Copenhagen, Amsterdam, Beijing, London & Seoul are the top 5 digital cities in the index European cities ran highly successful traffic management systems, while Beijing applied digital technologies to tackle air pollution and optimise utilities and sharing economy Involving citizens in design of smart city schemes underpins meaningful inclusion – a key aspect of successful smart city projects Smart city schemes delivered major public health benefits in areas like telemedicine, covid management and remote monitoring of patients TOKYO, JAPAN - Media OutReach - 22 June 2022 - The Digital Cities Index 2022, produced by Economist Impact and supported by NEC, is an inaugural ranking of 30 global cities across four thematic pillars: connectivity, services, culture and sustainability. Of the top 10 cities of the index, four are in Europe (Copenhagen, Amsterdam, London and Paris), four are in Asia Pacific (Beijing, Seoul, Sydney, Singapore) and two are in the US (New York and Washington DC). Copenhagen, Amsterdam, Beijing, London & Seoul performed the best, with successful open data projects and major strides in smart technology-powered sustainability projects like utility management. Cities with very defined goals realised the greatest benefits: European cities ran highly impactful traffic management systems, whereas Beijing made progress using applied digital technologies - tackling air pollution, optimising its utilities and promoting its sharing economy. The Atlantic nation cities led in open data innovation with a boom in travel and mobility apps. Sustainability was the biggest impact area highlighted by the White Paper, with leading smart cities realising major gains in air quality through smart utility management. Sustainability brought the highest overall scores, with Copenhagen, Seoul and Toronto scoring highest for their use of digital technology to support urban sustainability. Copenhagen and Singapore were the most connected cities, followed by Zurich, Beijing and Sydney. Singapore’s strategy for developing digital connectivity is built on the premise that AI, 5G and cyber security will drive the country’s growth and innovation post-covid. Smart cities are anticipated to drive economic growth: 5G alone will enable an estimated US$660 billion global mobility and transportation market by 2035. Unaffordable, unreliable or inaccessible internet services impact other city level goals. Half-a-million households reportedly lack a reliable internet connection in New York City, for instance, disadvantaging low-income children for remote learning. By contrast, Washington DC has offered low-cost or free services and devices to families unable to afford a broadband subscription and Paris has the most affordable mobile data of all the cities analysed. Ritu Bhandari, manager, policy and insights at Economist Impact, noted: “Smart cities will be safer, cleaner and more inclusive urban landscapes, where citizens enjoy better public health and services, more efficient transport and major economic improvements to be shared as public goods. The index highlights how outlier cities are leveraging technology to improve quality of life for millions of citizens around the world. While we see strong leadership from cities in Western Europe, the table is led by major cities from a wide geographical spread. The most significant improvements were delivered against tightly defined goals – a critical success factor for urban digital transformation.” Since the pandemic, digital technologies have enabled real progress in public health. In Asia, apps were central to managing covid-19, while telemedicine and real time remote monitoring of chronic patients has marked digitisation everywhere. In New York, for instance, a diabetes-prevention initiative for adults has reduced the risk of type 2 diabetes in high-risk individuals by 58%. Singapore, São Paulo and New Delhi ranked the highest for their delivery of digital municipal services. New Delhi ranks high in part because of the success of Aadhar, India’s ground-breaking national digital identity scheme. In Korea, Metaverse Seoul, announced in November 2021 by the Seoul Metropolitan Government, will provide citizens with access to government services via the metaverse. The report’s authors note that involving citizens in the design of smart city schemes underpins meaningful inclusion, a critical success factor for smart city projects, along with delivery against tightly defined goals.

Combining quantitative and qualitative analysis, and including a survey of 3,000 residents spread across all cities in the DCI, the results show how cities are performing in terms of both quantitative metrics like internet speed and qualitative factors such as the presence of strategies, policies and plans for technologies like 5G and AI.

GetCash Makes Borrowing Fast and Easy

GetCash

Americans are no strangers to borrowing money. According to a recent report, 51.3% of Americans have taken out a personal loan. Moreover, they don't just take personal loans for medical bills and debt consolidation; the demand for mortgages and auto loans is also increasing. According to a survey from January 2021, the top reason why Americans took a personal loan was to consolidate their debt. Next, Americans also took loans to start a business or cover large medical expenses. In 2019, the average FICO score in the United States was 706, increasing from 686 in 2009. This statistic shows an awareness of good lending habits and America's love for loans. So, it's no surprise that the lending market is booming. There are more lenders than ever, including banks, online lending platforms, direct lenders, and peer-to-peer lenders. The increase in lending also brought about the birth of online lending platforms like GetCash.com. These platforms provide security and convenience that physical lending companies can't offer. For example, with GetCash, you can reach numerous lenders with just one form and get cash quickly, so you won't have to deal with numerous rejections, especially if you have a low credit score. GetCash.com started in 2020 with a mission to help borrowers and lenders connect quickly. GetCash is not a lender, but it's there to help you find vetted lenders who work with people with varying credit scores. With a single loan request form, you can access a network of lenders committed to helping borrowers get the cash they need. Everything is also done online — the approval process, review of loan terms, and signing documents. Why Choose GetCash? Apart from ease of use, GetCash has some major advantages when it comes to service quality. Speed The benefit we want to highlight with using GetCash is how fast you can get the cash you need. First, you can find lenders instantly after filling out the form. Upon approval of the loan, you can also get your money as soon as the next business day. However, that greatly depends on each lender’s terms and conditions. Convenience GetCash.com has changed the way we process loans. Gone are the days of having to personally go to banks or other lending companies and fill out numerous forms. Now, with GetCash.com, you simply fill out an online form, and the site will be in charge of forwarding your request to its lending partners. Security There are many threats present in today's cyberspace. Anyone would naturally be worried about their information's security when conducting online transactions. However, the team at GetCash.com takes privacy and safety seriously. That's why it uses 256-bit encryption to maintain your information's safety. Who Is Eligible for a Loan? The process of getting a loan via GetCash.com is relatively easy. You need the following requirements to qualify: Be at least 18 years old Have a social security number Have one valid and government-issued ID Have a bank account information in your name Have a legitimate income source (employment, allowance, social benefits, disability benefits, or other types of regular income) Some lenders may ask you to present residence ownership or proof of residence if you're self-employed. It's worth noting that you don't have to be a US resident to get a loan. What the Process of Getting a Loan Is Like GetCash.com streamlined the process of acquiring a loan to make it easier for borrowers to get the money they need. Moreover, you can get a loan for as little as $100 and as much as $5,000. Of course, it still depends on what lender program you qualify for and what your credit score is. The simple process of getting a loan includes: 1. Fill out the online loan request form with about 30 personal questions. 2. Get routed to a lender's page, where you can review the terms and conditions of the offer. 3. Click "Accept” if the loan terms are agreeable to you. If they’re not, you may start from step 1 again. We should note that GetCash is free for borrowers. With consumer satisfaction in mind, GetCash never obliges you to accept a lender's loan offer if you're not fully satisfied with the terms and conditions. Loan Repayment You may repay your loan manually or use ACH transfers that automatically debit the payments from your bank account. The latter option is preferred because it lessens the likelihood of late fees when you forget to repay the loan. Loan Consolidation Loan consolidation allows borrowers to consolidate small loans with high interest into bigger loans with lower interest. This is especially useful if you need another loan while repaying a current one and have your credit history improved. Due to loan consolidation, you can obtain easier control of your regular payments and reduce costs. Loan Extensions This offer's availability depends on state laws, so make sure to ask about the policies around this before you accept a loan offer. Types of Loans Provided by GetCash At GetCash.com, there is a loan available for almost any financial need: medical emergency loans, wedding loans, and emergency eviction loans, among others. Now, look at the types of loans you can get via GetCash.com. GetCash.com offers different types of loans to create flexible solutions Collateral Loans A collateral loan is a type of loan in which the borrower agrees to use an asset as collateral for the loan. This loan type is helpful for borrowers who may not qualify for a traditional loan. The downside is that the lender can take hold of the collateral and sell it to recoup their losses if you can't make the payments. GetCash provides collateral loans, too — auto or car title loans are there for you to avail of. Non-Collateral or Unsecured Loans Also called "personal loans," this type doesn't require collateral. Funds are usually accessed faster, and borrowers with a high credit score can typically get better rates and greater sums. On the contrary, those with bad credit scores may have low borrowing limits. Unsecured or personal loans are divided into three types: Payday Loans This unsecured loan is short-term, typically paid in two weeks. Approval may be fast, and even those with bad credit scores are accepted. With this loan, you may borrow anything from $100 to $1,000. Installment Loans Getting an installment loan won't be that hard as well. With this loan type, you can borrow anywhere from $1,000 to $5,000, and the interest rates aren't as high as those with payday loans, so it's perfect for people with good credit scores. Conclusion If you're like a lot of people, you probably have a few things in your life that you could use some extra cash for. Whether it's an emergency, a big-ticket item you've been wanting, or just some extra spending money, GetCash can help you get the cash you need fast. Even if you have bad credit, GetCash can help you quickly and easily get the cash you need. The best part is finding a lender in just minutes and getting the money you need as soon as the next business day! So, why wait? Get started today at GetCash.com!
