CivicPlus Partners with Frase to Bring AI-Powered Chatbot Technology to Local Governments


“Chatbot is helping citizens get answers 24/7 on how to sign up for a COVID-19 vaccination, where to get a pet license, and how to pay their water bill instead of calling their local office offices during business hours.”

CivicPlus®, a leader in integrated technology solutions for local government, has partnered with Frase, a high-growth software company headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, to bring its clients an artificial intelligence-powered chatbot solution. The collaboration comes in response to local governments’ need to increase citizen service automation in response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and their staff and budget consolidations. The chatbot software, which integrates with CivicPlus’ CivicEngage® website solutions, convincingly simulates how a human would behave during a customer service interaction, thus providing a high-quality citizen service experience without the need for manual administrative interaction.

“We are pleased to partner with Frase to bring technology to our clients that will allow them to meet the growing need for contactless government,” said Ben Berkowitz, CivicPlus Vice President of Product Strategy. “Frase shares our commitment to bringing innovative, smart technology to the public sector. We are confident that together, we are bringing vital automated service capabilities to local governments at a critical time in their service evolution.”

Berkowitz added that pilot testers of the Chatbot have already seen relevant customer service use cases.

“Chatbot is helping citizens get answers 24/7 on how to sign up for a COVID-19 vaccination, where to get a pet license, and how to pay their water bill instead of calling their local office offices during business hours.”

Tomas Ratia, Frase Co-Founder and CEO, says that as the way consumers seek information has changed, all entities, including local governments, need to embrace the answer economy and leverage the value of artificial intelligence to provide prompt and accurate information.

“We understand that local governments are facing critical shortages in resources now more than ever,” said Ratia. “We are thrilled to partner with CivicPlus—a leader in local government technology—to bring our solution to municipalities that play such critical roles in our everyday lives. We are committed to empowering local governments to streamline their customer services operations and to do it with smart technology that learns from every interaction.”

“Prescriptive” Low-Code adds Value Beyond Speedy App Delivery


Prescriptive Low-Code: The New Quest To Marry the Best of Packaged And Custom Apps

Ultimus embraced the prescriptive low-code philosophy for process-automation apps before the approach had a name.

Ultimus announced today that Forrester Research, in their recent report Prescriptive Low-Code: The New Quest To Marry the Best of Packaged And Custom Apps, has described Ultimus as one of the vendors driving the next advance in low-code software development – Prescriptive Low-Code.

According to Forrester, “Prescriptive low-code platforms combine the best of packaged applications – pre-built and pre-architected solutions to specific business problems – with the best of development platforms – tools to create solutions that reflect what makes an enterprise unique”. Forrester calls this new concept’s advantages – speed of delivery, application integrity, performance, and flexibility – “irresistible” and forecasts it to catch on in some form.

Leigh Michl, Ultimus Chairman & CEO, said “We are pleased that this Forrester report recognizes that “Ultimus embraced the prescriptive low-code philosophy for process-automation apps before the approach had a name.” As the only established player in the category, we’ve proven to our global customer base that it’s the way to deliver complex, highly tailored apps faster, with higher quality, and, of course, cheaper. And it ensures that business processes are digitized in a way that keeps them aligned with the goals of digital transformation.”

Innovative Tellergy™ Teller Line Technology Now Integrated with KeyStone Core


We are thrilled to expand on our long-time partnership with Corelation by introducing the innovative features of Tellergy to nearly 140 credit unions on the KeyStone core.

Technology CUSO Wescom Resources Group (WRG) is excited to announce the full and seamless integration of its Tellergy™ for Verifone® teller line software with Corelation Inc.’s KeyStone credit union core processing system.

“We are thrilled to expand on our long-time partnership with Corelation by introducing the innovative features of Tellergy to nearly 140 credit unions on the KeyStone core,” says Kerry Dolan Schiappa, Director Sales & Marketing at WRG.

With advanced features like account identification and lookup, card swipe member authentication, account balance display and transaction confirmation, the Tellergy system utilizes Verifone’s market-leading retail multimedia terminals to provide members with a colorful, interactive and fully secure teller line banking experience.

“Most terminal technologies are deployed to facilitate electronic signatures,” says Tim Maron, Chief Revenue Officer of Corelation. “Tellergy does much more, including card swipe member authentication with PIN validation, the ability to display custom promotions and updates of member information on the device.

“Most importantly, Tellergy provides members with a secure and safe method of validation without verbally stating any personal data. This expedites the member interaction, providing staff with more time for meaningful discussions with members.”

As the first credit union to go live with Tellergy on KeyStone, TTCU Federal Credit Union of Tulsa, Oklahoma looks forward to deploying the software’s game-changing benefits.

“Tellergy meets our member’s expectations for a great experience, matching those they have with other types of businesses,” says Andy Tripp, Senior VP of Information Technology at TTCU. “As a CUSO, WRG understands credit unions. They are familiar not only with operational processes, but also with member needs. WRG’s integration over the Corelation Keystone API opens up a new realm of possibilities for the future.”

According to Maron, Corelation’s and WRG’s history of working together to solve for credit unions’ unique needs helped make the Tellergy integration possible.

“From our initial partnership with WRG through today, it’s been a true collaborative experience,” Maron says. “WRG understands technology and matches our philosophy in delivering solutions in a highly efficient manner.”

Eirene quickly expands across Ontario to provide online cremation arrangement services


Mallory Greene, CEO, Eirene.ca

Canadians need a dramatically different service to support them in their loved one’s passing.

Eirene.ca, an online cremation and end-of-life technology platform, today announced it is expanding its services across the province of Ontario. Eirene, which launched in November of last year in the Greater Toronto Area, is quickly growing to provide more Canadians with its simple, affordable and convenient cremation arrangement services. The service is now available across southern Ontario including the Kingston, Niagara, Simcoe and London-area regions.

“We built Eirene with a conviction that Canadians need a trusted partner and seamless online service to manage cremation arrangements for their loved-one’s passing,” said Mallory Greene, CEO, Eirene. “In the few months since making our platform available, we served more families than anticipated, demonstrating Canadians need a dramatically different service to support them in their loved one’s passing.”

The most recent Auditor General’s report highlighted a critical need for transparency in pricing and a standardization of how services are offered to consumers, particularly within the context of the COVID19 pandemic. Eirene, which is licensed by the Bereavement Authority of Ontario (BAO), is the first platform of its kind in Canada to address these industry issues. Eirene offers a path forward through transparent service offerings and flat fee pricing.

Eirene clients use the platform to arrange cremation services at the time of passing. The simple, online experience eliminates the back-and-forth paperwork and time-consuming process traditionally associated with the funeral industry. Once confirmed online, Eirene works with local crematorium and transfer partners across Ontario to ensure the deceased are safely transported from their place of passing, cremated, and the ashes returned to their families. An Eirene cremation service is available for a one-time fee of $2,500 CAD. The platform also offers a complimentary estate administration tool for families to close accounts and notify the government along with unlimited proof of death certificates.

“Consumers are ready for the funeral industry to move forward digitally,” said Faisal Abid, CTO, Eirene. “Eirene makes it easy to speak to our Funeral Directors and make the appropriate arrangements online. Through the simplicity of the platform, combined with our expertise and care, we offer our clients peace of mind and let them focus on their family.”

About Eirene

Founded in 2019, Eirene is Canada’s first direct cremation technology platform making cremation easier and more affordable for clients. Eirene provides end-to-end services from pick-up to cremation to delivery of the ashes. Eirene is currently serving the Greater Toronto Area and is expanding across Canada.
