TAIGER launches movement and chatbot to help people and businesses cope during COVID-19

Leave a comment

SINGAPORE, May 13, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — TAIGER has launched an AI-driven chatbot, ‘Ask Phoebe‘, as part of a movement called #makehomesgreatagain to help people make better use of their time while at home with their families.

TAIGER launches movement and chatbot to help people and businesses cope during COVID-19

The chatbot offers social distancing-friendly activity ideas during the pandemic, whilst helping businesses market their services.

“One great thing about the chatbot we have built that allows people to identify activities suitable for them is that the bot actually identifies your life stage,” says Joshua Kwah, Global Head of Marketing at TAIGER, in an interview with CNA938.

Joshua adds that brands can tap on ‘Ask Phoebe’ as a platform to stay relevant yet purposeful.

Companies and agencies that are exploring ways to leverage this movement include IMDA, MullenLowe, Publicis Media, and Gush.

The IMDA, a statutory board of the Singapore government that manages the infocomm and media sectors, had previously rolled out its Stay Healthy, Go Digital movement, which consists of a repository of educational and entertainment choices to engage those staying at home.

To help spread their movement further, TAIGER has incorporated ideas from their repository into the chatbot, presenting the public with a multitude of ways to keep themselves occupied at home.

Howie Lau, the assistant chief executive of media and innovation at IMDA, commends the efforts of TAIGER’s #makehomesgreatagain initiative, which he says “complements national efforts to help Singaporeans live their life as normally as possible through digital technology.”

Chief executive of MullenLowe in Singapore, Paul Soon, agrees and makes a case on how the importance of chatbots were previously overlooked, but have now become more relevant than ever.

Ultimately, TAIGER hopes people can do things for the very first time through ‘Ask Phoebe’ or through following the examples by others who quote the hashtag, according to Joshua Kwah, the Global Head of Marketing at TAIGER.

“With being cooped up at home with work, kids, dependencies all closer than comfort and at a higher level of intensity, it’s easy to slip into mood swings or feelings of depression,” he says.

“It is an opportunity to build up your emotional bank — something that is often neglected in the fast pace of life but so essential to your wellbeing, inter-relationships as well as your productivity at work connecting with people.”

Analyst reports stated that 90% of South and Southeast Asia’s population access the internet through mobile phones, which means the region is by far home to the world’s most engaged mobile users. Additionally, the region is expected to grow to US$300 billion by 2025, or threefold from US$100 billion in 2019, bringing a higher risk of online fraud as the ”mobile economy” continues to expand.

This is where Armour steps in, once Armour’s fraud detection is deployed, each transaction is checked against hundreds of data points to validate its trustworthiness. This allows for suspicious activities in the digital payment process to be detected and prevented in real-time through a highly tuned Machine Learning algorithm. Furthermore, Armour can continually and automatically refine its ability to detect an ever-increasing range of threats to the digital payment system.

The added benefit of a reduction in digital payment fraud is an increase in customer satisfaction. Since its roll-out with major partners in South and Southeast Asia, results show a significant decrease in customer complaints while at the same time showing a month on month increase in clean transaction rate, bringing a higher & more sustainable conversion rate for Digital merchants.

Raja Mansukhani, Senior Vice President of APAC, said “Armour as a product is a natural progression to cater to the demands of an ever-growing Digital economy which has led to more significant exposure to fraud. Our objective of developing Armour was to limit this threat while removing a frictionful experience for the end customer, leading to a reduction in complaints for Telcos.”

iTutorGroup expands its education platform globally to fill a growing demand for virtual connectivity amid COVID-19

Leave a comment

SHANGHAI, May 11, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — With the development of online education, the trend towards integrating online and offline models has been strengthened. The current lockdown and school closures have pushed schools and training institutions to seek solutions in transforming its classes online. Considering the uncertainty of the pandemic, a surge in demand for better technology will continue to rise.

For most schools and education institutions in need, developing their own online system is impractical due to time and resource constraints. A optimal solution is to seek high-quality third-party platforms, that is, “to leave it to the professionals.” Utilizing a proven b2b education platform provides schools and institutions with instant access to virtual classroom technology designed specifically for education scenarios.

Since 1998, iTutorGroup has been at the forefront of the online education space, operating online education brands including vipJr and TutorABC. Now, iTutorGroup is launching TutorMeet+, a proprietary video conferencing suite for education, to officially cater to the needs of schools and supplementary education service providers. This system was previously only available to learners at iTutorGroup.

Bringing the world a best-in-class solution

In recent years, the Business-to-business market in education has been highly valued by major firms, with both traditional offline education institutions and Internet companies vying for a seat at the table.

From Mofaxiao under Tomorrow Advancing Life (NYSE: TAL) and WeLearning launched by Tencent, to companies specializing in providing SaaS services such as Zoom, Agora and ClassIn. These companies target thousands of small and medium-sized educational institutions, aiming to participate in their transformation processes and gain a greater market share by providing them with the necessary tools.

iTutorGroup, which previously focused on providing education materials and services to end users, have now launched TutorMeet+ to enter into the education platform market to provide audio and video solutions for institutions to meet their online teaching needs.

With more than 10 core patents, TutorMeet+ is a virtual classroom platform that provides high-quality integrated interactive live broadcasting solutions for the industry, functions including real-time audio and video interaction, interactive whiteboard, instant messenger, intelligent voice detection and other features, making TutorMeet+ the ideal solution for K-12 online learning, online school-wide parent/teacher meetings, online vocational training and more. According to iTutorGroup, TutorMeet+ has been in service internally and for its customers for over 10 years, with more than 50 million classes held totally 1.8 billion minutes’ of airtime.

Compared with other vertical SaaS service providers, TutorMeet+ is the most professional platform in the online education industry, giving it competitive advantages that few could match.

By providing more than 10 million online classes every year, the TutorMeet+ system has accumulated a large amount of valuable data. Analyzing and mining these data brings tremendous value to the improvement of learning efficiency and efficacy. TutorMeet+ is not only a technology platform, but also a deep integration of educational services. Since January of 2020, the TutorMeet+ online learning platform was officially released to assist offline training institutions and schools resume classes online, so that their students can enjoy uninterrupted learning from home.

Many public schools in China adopted TutorMeet+ to start online classes

At 8 am on Jan. 31, iTutorGroup began providing online classrooms for more than 300 senior high school students and teachers at a high school in Zhao County, Hebei province, helping it to resume classes ahead of schedule.

In February, third graders in Dingtao No.1 Middle School in Heze, Shandong province successfully launched two free courses in mathematics and English on TutorMeet+, with more than 1,000 attendees. In that same month, TutorMeet+ helped Shanghai Oriental Art Training School provide online lecture-style classes, the first time that TutorMeet+ has provided the platform for an specialized art education institution.

Responding to global demand, the technology platform is now available worldwide

During the pandemic, the Internet, electronic devices, and real-time audio and video applications have enabled consumers to enjoy a more active online lives, and a richer virtual world has emerged, including education, health care, IoT and more. Nearly 363 million students worldwide are affected by the pandemic, with 20% of pre-school and primary and secondary school students unable to attend school and 25% of higher education students suspended, UNESCO said in the data released on March 10.

Under these circumstances, iTutorGroup has decided to make the TutorMeet+ platform available for more institutions and schools around the world.

Recently, the performing arts organization DramaKids held a drama master class and invited the founder of the Children’s Theatre of World, Gorman, to give an online lecture via TutorMeet+. The master class teachers conducted classes remotely, and found teaching on TutorMeet+ stable and convenient, streamlining the troupe’s operations. They hope to continue using TutorMeet+ in the future.

Since the launch of the platform, TutorMeet+ has been adopted by the Asia Europe Business School of East China Normal University, Zhao Country No.6 Middle School in Hebei Province, Dingtao No.1 Middle School in Shandong Province, Shanghai Oriental Art Training School, MBA office of The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong Qisi Tutoring Club, Malaysia School for Taiwan Business People , Learning East Chinese Education Center in Thailand, and many other offline training institutions and other large primary and secondary schools.

It is reported that nearly 200 institutions, including more than 30 schools, have proposed to build online classrooms on the TutorMeet+ platform in the last two months. Currently, the TutorMeet+ team is offering classes for institutions from elementary to high school, reaching more than 40,000 students.

These achievements reflect the technical strength of the enterprise

TutorMeet+ is built and maintained by a large team of experts specializing in audio and video technology. The entire platform and its underlying architecture was independently developed and constantly upgraded.

With the latest WebRTC technology, TutorMeet+ provides a stable connection which helps to restore the sense of face-to-face communication. Also, servers are strategically located globally and constantly expanded as needs soar, allowing for the large bandwidth requirements by students and teachers at home and abroad.

TutorMeet+ has made substantial strides in the international market with its localization strategy. Continued development and improvement of the TutorMeet+ system would bring this leading online learning platform from China to the world, offering users greater conveniences and a preferred tool to tackle future education needs in the post pandemic world.

“We’re in unprecedented times due to COVID-19,” said Sean Elliott, chief technology officer for Körber Supply Chain – Software. “Now more than ever businesses need a partner that understands their unique supply chain complexities. At Körber, we’re first and foremost your ally, creating highly-tailored solutions to meet your needs today and beyond. This includes advanced software solutions to assess risk for your supply chain and staff and helping you continue to meet consumer demands.”

More products, suppliers, distribution channels and heightening consumer expectations already make supply chains more complex by the day. Combine this with supply chain continuity in light of the recent pandemic, this complexity increases exponentially. Contact Tracer overcomes this.

Contact Tracer uniquely works with data from the warehouse management system (WMS) to monitor the potential movement of coronavirus. This can be adjusted per each company’s unique needs. Examples include tracking the cycle of events and locations of an employee, devices (headsets, scanners, radios), equipment (pallet jacks, clamp truck, forklifts, carts) and inbound and outbound orders throughout the warehouse – narrowed to a specific timeframe. Additionally, companies have the insights to inform customers about any possible exposure to the contents of their orders.

Previously requiring extensive manual research of hundreds of interactions, supply chain professionals can now instantly assess who, what, when and where is potentially impacted. The result is a simplified means to detect direct and indirect exposure to coronavirus and determine low to high-risk scenarios for warehouse products and people.

The Körber Business Area Supply Chain is part of the international technology group Körber. This consists of Aberle, Aberle Software, Cirrus Logistics, Cohesio Group, Consoveyo, DMLogic, HighJump, inconso, Otimis, Langhammer, Riantics and Voiteq.

With 30+ years of experience, Körber already has proven success with thousands of companies worldwide.
