CleverTap Unveils RenderMax

CleverTap

CleverTap, the World's #1 Retention Cloud today unveiled RenderMax – a proprietary technology that can increase mobile push notification render rates up to 90% on low-end Android devices. Push notifications have the power to increase customer retention rates anywhere from 3 - 10 times. Most marketers just focus on their push notification delivery rates, but a “delivered" notification that doesn't render on the user’s device is a wasted effort. For those who equate delivery and rendering as equal, render rate is the percentage of the number of push notifications the end user received (and were rendered) on the user’s device compared to the total number of push notifications that were sent. All Chinese OEM devices use a custom variant of the stock Android OS. To optimize battery consumption, these OS variants are configured to bypass the Google/Firebase push delivery service, resulting in low delivery rates and even lower render rates. RenderMax gives CleverTap customers a significant competitive advantage as they can now engage users they could not before and elevate the ROI from their push campaigns. This is especially true for devices that are in battery saver mode or cannot be reached due to inactivity. “RenderMax is a testament to our continued commitment towards product development and innovation. Low render rates stifle the true potential of mobile push notifications. We are confident that with RenderMax, brands will be able to harness the full power of push notifications. What’s interesting is that we are offering RenderMax to all customers at no additional cost to any brand that wants to try it out.” said Anand Jain, Co-Founder & Chief Product Officer, CleverTap. Betterhalf, India's first and only marriage super app was provided an early access to RenderMax and their push notification render rates more than doubled! Shankar Krishnamurthy, Group Product Manager, Betterhalf said, “At Betterhalf, mobile push notifications are critical for our business. With CleverTap’s innovative RenderMax solution our push notification render rates have skyrocketed to 85%.” RenderMax powers up the render rates of customers’ push notifications, amplifies the push notification reach, and maximizes user engagement. Enhancing the reach of push notifications can help CleverTap customers lower costs, increase engagement and conversion rates, and reduce churn. “The CleverTap platform has a great breadth of capabilities, and this innovative mobile push solution will certainly help them stay much ahead of the competition,” Shankar added. CleverTap RenderMax works with Android OEMs such as Oppo, Xiaomi, Vivo, One Plus, POCO, Realme, and Samsung.

The Beta Version of Ink Finance’s Powerful Toolset Is Live—Here’s Everything Investors Need to Know About QUILL, Ink’s Native Token

Ink Finance

Ink Finance is an all-in-one toolset for the organizations of Web3 to build and operate their financial framework. Thanks to its plug-and-play features and the flexibility to issue and risk manage bespoke financial products across multiple blockchains, INK is reportedly quickly becoming the financial governance tool of choice for emerging crypto ecosystems and traditional institutions alike. What unlocks those features and realizes the platform’s value is QUILL, INK’s native token. Here’s a breakdown of QUILL’s tokenomics, and how DAOs use them as needed governance capital, as well as how QUILL holders can use them to share the growth with up-and-coming DAOs. The Initial QUILL Staking Rewards Ink Finance will set aside 25% of the QUILL tokens as the governance staking rewards, over a 20 year release period. The daily emission will be dynamically calculated based on annual usage figures. Ink Finance accrues the captured transaction or asset custody fees into its treasury, and will use these cryptocurrencies to buy back the QUILLs in circulation, and then “soft destruct” them by placing them at the bottom of the reward pool as future emission. INK’s Fee Capture Tools Generate Returns for QUILL Holders Removing QUILLs from circulation places upward pressure on their prices as more and more DAOs use the INK facilities, benefiting all QUILL token holders as the treasury directly “monetize” fees and “rents” captured by the platform. The fees charged are for financial services provided to DAOs running on INK platform, initially set at 0.2% per transaction and 0.5% per annum for assets under custody. While 25% of the income generated from those fees is used to maintain the INK platform, the remaining 75% are used to buy back the QUILLs in circulation. The entire QUILL holder community, including the DAOs who must stake them to use the functions, have the right to vote on how to adjust those rates. For DAOs, QUILL Is a Form of Necessary Working Capital While most of the features on INK, including the core governance functions, are completely free, more advanced fiscal and financial features are behind a sort of paywall. DAOs that need to use these advanced tools must acquire and stake QUILLs to unlock them. Unlike the subscription model of the Web2 SaaS, DAOs can preserve such working capital and sell them when they decide to stop their operations, instead of paying the irrecoverable subscription fees. This could be a truly innovative utility model in which the users are also the partial owners of the software. It’s a bit like a traditional startup buying real estate or machinary to run its business; if it doesn’t succeed, the company can liquidate those assets to recapture, or even gain appreciation on, the initial investment. The minimum number of QUILLs required to activate advanced features will later be determined in a transparent voting process, which all existing DAO users will be able to participate in by virtue of their staked QUILLs. All staked QUILLs earn emission rewards. INK Also Enables the QUILL Holding Community to Sponsor DAOs If DAOs currently don’t have upfront capital to acquire and stake the required minimum QUILLs, any QUILL holders in the INK community can be their sponsors, granting them the ability to use the advanced features by staking their QUILLs on behalf of the sponsored DAOs. Typically the sponsor will ask for revenue sharing with the DAOs in return, and it is totally determined by the market and free will. What’s the most critical part of this arrangement is that the sponsors can insist on holding one of the DAOs Treasury Managers to make sure both sides deliver on their promises - the real meaning of smart contracts. While being the sponsors, QUILL holders continue receiving the staking rewards, adding to the revenue sharing generated by the DAOs they sponsor. The goal of these mechanisms of QUILL is to foster a wide and diverse ecosystem of innovative and unique DAOs while giving members of the INK community a way to generate long-term returns in exchange for supporting that growing ecosystem. Ink Finance is a DAO governance toolset, enabling all kinds of ecosystems to establish governance economy, manage internal finance, and connect with DeFi investors everywhere, through a no-code user experience. As a Financial SaaS built on blockchain, Ink Finance has the most comprehensive financial engineering tools to support on-chain issuance, settlement, clearing, and analysis of Non-Fungible Financial Products.Ink Finance is backed by heavy weight eco builders such as Republic Crypto and DeFi Alliance, partnered with cutting-edge solution providers such as Humanode, Astra, SolvFinance, Polytrade and deBridge, etc. This post contains sponsored advertising content.

Plus One Robotics’ Parcel Handling Solutions Recognized by DHL’s Logistics Trend Radar

Plus One Robotics

Plus One Robotics, a global solutions provider of a vision-enhanced and AI-based parcel handling platform for intralogistics applications announced today that its PickOne induction solution and Yonder remote supervision software have been recognized by DHL’s Logistics Trend Radar 6.0, an established thought leadership publication and strategic tool encompassing major trends impacting the logistics industry. The Trend Radar lists the PickOne induction solution under Stationary Robots – Robotic Picking and Placing; deeming it highly relevant and impactful to the future of logistics.

We’re committed to improving our solutions every day and value this recognition.” PickOne’s induction solution uses AI to identify objects for pick-and-place applications.

The AI system learns from this intervention to further improve its capabilities if similar situations occur in the future, helping to minimize downtime. According to the Trend Radar, this AI-human collaboration indicates the potential to create new jobs through widespread implementation of robotic solutions in warehouses and manufacturing environments by upskilling existing labor. "DHL's Logistics Trend Radar was created to provide a comprehensive overview of the most meaningful innovation in the logistics space with both near term and long term impact, like Plus One Robotics" said Ben Perlson, Senior Innovation Manager at DHL.

What Do The Midterm Results Mean For The Markets? Dive Into Policy Monitoring With FiscalNote (NYSE: NOTE)

Benzinga

Midterm Elections often result in a loss of power for the incumbent political party, but current data suggests that this may not be the case this year. With the President representing the Democratic party, many experts and speculators predicted a Republican “Red Wave,” a sweeping Republican takeover of the Senate and the House. As of this writing, the “Red Wave” has yet to surface. In fact, Republicans lost a seat in the Senate, but have made significant strides in the House. Currently, 220 Republicans hold House seats compared to the Democrats’ 211, and only 218 seats are required for a majority. The Senate remains up for grabs; Republicans currently hold 49 seats, while the Democrats occupy 50. With many anticipating conclusive results in December, current voting data suggests that a single-party rule over both the Senate and the House (i.e. Congress) may not be in the books for this presidential campaign. What does this information mean for investors? The Impact Of Midterm Elections On The Market A gridlocked Congress is generally considered favorable for the market. For bills or legislation to be passed, both parts of Congress must accept the Bill before it can be sent to the President for final approval. With each political party in control of one-half of Congress, the likelihood that market-changing Bills will pass greatly diminishes. Thus, Congress’s gridlocked state reduces investor risk. The passing of Bills can be quite influential on securities. The Infrastructure Bill passed by President Biden, for example, provided a catalyst for the price ascensions of a number of stocks involved in construction like Home Depot Inc. (NYSE: HD) and Caterpillar Inc. (NYSE: CAT). Likewise, a vaccination mandate during the Covid-19 pandemic provided a catalyst for the price ascensions of biopharmaceuticals like Pfizer Inc. (NYSE: PFE) and Moderna Corp. (NASDAQ: MRNA). Certain government policies can have a drastic impact on the value of securities, and investors need to beware of these to manage risk and spot opportunities. How FiscalNote Can Help You Spot Opportunities And Risks As an agency specialized in collecting data on the regulatory processes in the U.S. and abroad, FiscalNote (NYSE: NOTE) may be an ideal candidate for helping investors track important policy changes. FiscalNote’s business premise revolves around keeping stakeholders in the know about policies that directly affect them, their business, their stakeholders and their investments. This is no easy task: Since World War II, Congress has typically enacted 4 million to 6 million words of new law in each two-year Congress, according to GovTrack. This data does not include European laws and bills. FiscalNote’s policy-monitoring solutions take the hard work out of tracking policy changes. By collating and personalizing local, state, federal and global policy into one neatly packaged digital solution, FiscalNote simplifies the political landscape. The FiscalNote platform, for example, allows customers to monitor policy issues, manage and engage stakeholders and increase team efficiency through one digital platform. Other FiscalNote solutions allow customers to: Track and report key state legislation and regulations Stay ahead of policy changes within cities, counties, school districts and state boards Discover, monitor and take action on global policy developments Expand and customize team efforts Monitor and understand European Union legislation Glean actionable policy insights from on the Hill with CQ News Manage PAC donations from a centralized platform Constantly shifting policies make the economic landscape unpredictable, presenting opportunities and threats along the way. This year’s Midterm Elections may still create market uncertainty, and FiscalNote reportedly has the tools to help you navigate through them safely.

Are You Confident About Your Vehicle’s Repairs?

AutoTech IQ

Many car owners dread making an appointment with auto repair shops because they feel unprepared to carry on a discussion with the service adviser about the need and cost of repairs. That lack of preparation creates unease over whether to even go to the shop for fear of being ripped off. AutoTechIQ.com was created to make car owners overcome that initial fear by being preeducated and confident about what symptoms and related fixes are typical for their specific vehicle type and compare the visible and audible symptoms their vehicle shows with images, videos and descriptions in articles. A typical example is a squealing noise while driving. How Does Preeducation Make Me Confident? By preeducating yourself before a meeting with the shop, you’ll ensure that you have the proper details to share with a service adviser. For example, if your car starts emitting oil-like odors, you can browse through AutoTechIQ and find articles that cover oil-related issues, such as “Why does my car smells like burning oil?” Then, by reading the article’s content and comparing the images and videos with your vehicle’s symptoms, you’ll rule out potential problems and their fixes. Note that AutoTechIQ’s articles feature images, videos and sound representations of typical issues that point to specific symptoms. There, you’ll also find information about certain vehicles’ years, makes and models that commonly portray these symptoms and the usual faulty parts involved. Get the knowledge you need and share it with your go-to auto shop; this will make a discussion about the service’s budget more transparent and precise. What Is the Best Approach When Engaging the Service Adviser? Often, shops focus on fixing the symptom and send you back on the road. That approach implies less money spent on an individual visit but adds up over time. Tell the service adviser about the symptom and ask for a digital vehicle health inspection, which will give you the entire vehicle’s state of health. The best approach when dealing with a service adviser during car service is to ask for a digital vehicle health inspection. This type of inspection aims to make you aware of your car’s current condition and future risks; it creates a state of health for your car. This approach focuses on saving you money in the long run by showing your vehicle’s “possible upcoming issues” and how impactful they can be for your wallet and your safety. Why Repairs Based on the State of Health Save You Money Once the state of health information is in your hands, showing in red, yellow and green and substantiated with images and videos and notes what your vehicle’s health is, you can engage the service adviser in what needs to be done now (red), can be deferred (yellow) and is in mint condition (green). Certified AutoTechIQ shops follow a process guaranteeing a comprehensive report, which lets you budget the current and upcoming repairs. If the shop is certified the digital vehicle health inspection is called a Digital Auto Checkup. More specifically, the state of health record shows, in color-based categories, what type of risk your vehicle has. The colors identify as: Red: Needs urgent assessment Yellow: Can be deferred Green: Mint condition at the time of inspection This is also substantiated with images, videos and notes to clarify the condition as much as possible. When taking your car to a certified AutoTechIQ shop, you’ll have education-focused service. The state of health they offer will be a comprehensive report where you’ll budget the current and upcoming repairs confidently. Note that for AutoTechIQ-certified shops, the term you can use for this inspection is Digital Auto Checkup. Why Is It Important to Ask for a Digital Auto Checkup? Many auto repair shops listen to your concern and immediately provide a solution. When you go to any doctor for a symptom checkup, does the doctor immediately diagnose you? Typically they don’t do that unless you are in the emergency room. Instead, they’ll check your vital signs, test your blood and conduct other testing procedures. The same goes for your vehicle during car service. First, you establish baseline health before addressing the main symptom. The vehicle’s bill of health is called Digital Auto Checkup or Digital Vehicle Health Inspection. What Do You Get From AutoTechIQ as a Car Owner? The majority of car owners dread the appointment at an auto repair shop. To counter that, the shops in AutoTechIQ ’s network put your education and professional service as top priority. Additionally, the shops you’ll find in AutoTechIQ’s business directories follow these criteria: The business has at least 100 Google reviews with an average score higher than 4.5 out of 5.
