SALT LAKE CITY, Aug. 03, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — omniQ Corp. (OTCQB: OMQS) (“omniQ ” or “the Company”), an object identification company providing Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based technology solutions to the Supply Chain Automation, Traffic Management, Public Safety and Safe City markets, and majority owner of Dangot, announced today that Aroma Espresso Bar (Aroma), the largest coffee chain in Israel with branches in the US, Canada and other countries, has chosen Dangot to provide its self-service kiosks. According to a Forbes article titled “Self-Order Kiosks Are Finally Having A Moment In The Fast Food Space”, written by Alicia Kelso (1), it is predicted that the self-service kiosk market will reach $30.8 billion by 2024.

Aroma is an Israeli espresso and coffee chain with 200 branches around the country, in the United States, Canada, and in Europe.

By the end of 2021, approx. 120 Dangot’s Self Ordering kiosks will be installed in Aroma Israeli branches, with the expectation to install 250 of the Kiosks in total, by the end of 2022.

Dangot’s self-order kiosks are integrated with advanced computing as well as EMV smart payment systems. EMV— developed and managed by American Express, Discover, JCB, Mastercard, UnionPay, and Visa — is a global standard for credit cards that uses computer chips to authenticate (and secure) chip-card transactions. The DORIX software house incorporates smart software at the kiosks that enhances the customer experience and enables fast ordering.

Shai Lustgarten, CEO of OMNIQ commented, “We’re thrilled to be working with Aroma. Dangot’s innovative product offerings continued to be adopted in its home market of Israel, and are also a fit for OMNIQ’s target markets. We look forward to leveraging Dangot’s success globally, and leveraging our strong sales team to penetrate the US market, and capture more and more of the anticipated $30 billion smart kiosk market.”

Haim Dangot, President of Dangot Computers Ltd, commented: ”Dangot’s self-order kiosk business has seen considerable growth over the past 2 years. As a result of Covid-19 restrictions, forcing more and more food chains and hospitality venues to adopt self-order solutions to accommodate their customers and shift more orders to be automated, also resulting in better up sales through automated orders and the ability to reduce cashiers and waiting staff. “

imparta-launches-world’s-first-sales-methodology-aware-ai

LONDON, April 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Imparta Ltd, a global leader in performance improvement for customer-facing teams, has announced the release of i-Coach AI, the world’s first sales methodology-aware AI.

Over the past 18 months, AI has reshaped many industries and professions, with sales being no exception. Yet, generic LLMs such as ChatGPT are poor at coaching, and at selling. Even data-driven AI insights are only as good as the qualitative frameworks that underpin their observations.
i-Coach AI is the first expert Sales AI Coach that follows a proven, structured coaching process, and is fluent in all aspects of sales, account management, negotiation, customer success, commercial and business acumen, sales management and sales leadership. It is powered by Imparta’s award-winning, research-based Agile 3D methodology and complete, modular skills library.
Richard Barkey, Founder and CEO of Imparta, said “GenAI is one of the few truly transformative technologies in our lifetimes, and one that no sales organisation can ignore. We are genuinely excited to introduce i-Coach AI, an enterprise-grade coaching tool for salespeople, managers and leaders. I’m not exaggerating when I say that I’m using i-Coach AI myself, to think through strategies around specific clients, and indeed for the whole business. This tool is designed to integrate seamlessly across various sales ecosystems and tech stacks, and provides targeted, IP-aware coaching and practice simulations of customer conversations, at multiple points of need.”
As part of the launch, Imparta will host a webinar on April 23rd and May 2nd, hosted by Richard Barkey, titled ‘Leveraging Sales Methodology-Aware AI at Scale in the Enterprise’. Click here to learn more.
During this webinar, Richard will announce details of i-Coach AI and Imparta’s upcoming course for sales teams: Leveraging AI for Sales. He will also set out a range of essential use cases that we are rolling out across Imparta’s agile sales ecosystem and across the tech stack.
About Imparta
