Published

on

G-P Gia™ instantly provides context-specific HR and legal guidance and actionable documents in over 50 countries and all 50 U.S. states to cut cost and time of compliance by up to 95%

BOSTON, Nov. 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — REMOTE FIRST COMPANY – Nov. 12, 2024 − G-P (Globalization Partners), recognized by industry analysts as the undisputed leader in global employment, today introduced G-P Gia, the world’s first AI-based global HR compliance advisor. Powered by G-P’s proprietary knowledge base that combines more than a decade of global employment expertise with cutting-edge AI technology, Gia revolutionizes HR, cutting the cost and time of compliance by up to 95%.

“With Gia, G-P is closing a major gap in global and cross-border workforce planning and organizational readiness by delivering new workforce legal compliance automation,” said Zachary Chertok, senior research manager for employee experience, IDC. “Gia bridges the gap between HR and legal teams, supporting HR to efficiently and accurately move through global and continuous workforce planning, scenario modeling and organizational decision making. Drawing on G-P’s legacy in global EOR, Gia empowers HR to drive more agile decisions and outcomes by automating workforce legal compliance checks for global business change, scale, geographic expansion and M&A.”

With Gia as a trusted HR compliance advisor, companies can efficiently and compliantly navigate the complexities of global employment and reduce reliance on costly consultants. Gia provides context-specific answers to the toughest questions and can draft and edit documents like employment policies, contracts, handbooks and more. At launch, Gia delivers expertise in over 50 countries and all 50 U.S. states, with the plan to extend expertise to more than 180 countries. Gia harnesses the expertise of G-P’s hundreds of HR, finance and legal professionals, to provide up-to-date, accurate and reliable information, advice and solutions across the employee lifecycle.

“When I started G-P and created the employer of record (EOR) industry more than a decade ago, my vision was to create a fast and easy way for companies to hire anyone, anywhere,” said Nicole Sahin, founder and CEO, G-P. “We changed the way the world did business by launching an industry. Now we’re doing it again, by putting the best of the world’s global HR advisors at our clients’ fingertips.”

Sahin continued, “When it comes to global HR matters, the complexity is vast and accuracy is crucial. Customers need guidance they can trust, not only for the black-and-white law, but also for the tactical way HR specialists get things done on the ground, country by country. We developed G-P Gia with our proprietary knowledge base and deep expertise in AI to uniquely solve complex problems, mitigate risk and reduce the need for HR organizations to depend on manual processes or external consultants – yet retain the human touch. Built for the next era of HR, Gia will forever change the future of work.”

Gia automates complex tasks and guides HR professionals to manage: 

Talent Acquisition: Manage the detailed requirements for hiring across multiple countries. For example, if a customer based in the U.S. needs to hire an employee in Germany, Gia will provide all of the local context about compliance concerns and best practices to:Develop a compliant job descriptionDraft a locally-compliant offer letterDraft or analyze the proposed employment contractHighlight key legal compliance requirementsTranslate all materials into local language

HR Administration, Policy Creation and Communications: Automate time-consuming tasks, create compliant compensation and benefits recommendations and develop and update company policies, employee handbooks, performance review templates, etc. For example, if a customer learns that the maternity law in an employee’s state is changing, Gia knows all about new policies and can:Analyze the existing policySuggest draft amendments for compliance and HR standardsDraft training and communication plans for existing employees

Immigration Guidance: Provide the appropriate immigration, work authorization and tax requirements, simplifying the process for global hires. For example, if an employee is relocating from the U.S. to Japan, Gia can:Offer detailed insights on global mobility, including employment laws, tax regulations and benefitsProvide guidance on how to find and obtain the required visas

Offboarding/Termination: Minimize legal, financial and operational risks that could arise from non-compliance on termination procedures. For example, if a customer needs to part ways with an employee in France due to a role redundancy, Gia understands the local employment laws and will:Analyze the existing employment contract and make recommendationsOutline the country-specific employment law requirements like notice, protections, termination reasons and moreAnswer nuanced HR questionsCalculate the redundancy paymentDraft the termination letter

G-P’s long-term investment in AI, coupled with more than a decade of legal and HR expertise, ensures that Gia is always up to date with the latest global compliance standards, giving users the confidence to make informed decisions when building and managing global teams. G-P’s unique, patent-pending approach integrates Large Language Models (LLMs) with Knowledge Graphs, diving deep into data and providing nuanced and relevant insights that go beyond surface-level information.

“In a market where many are content to simply use AI, we’re inventing it,” said Nat Natarajan, chief product and strategy officer, G-P. “Gia is more than an AI tool—it’s a breakthrough, representing a significant leap forward in the AI field. We are pioneering the integration of LLMs with Knowledge Graphs to extract rules from unstructured text, ensuring we deliver accuracy and nuance while protecting against hallucinations. The combination of our over 10 years of transactional compliance data and human expertise, along with our AI technology, is uniquely ours and it cannot be replicated.”

Context Labs AI Distillery™ Lets Enterprises Run Sovereign AI on Data They Own

Published

on

By

Company launches the Context Engine for trusted sovereign AI, which packages an enterprise’s own data with verified lineage for use with the frontier or open-weight model the enterprise chooses.

ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates, Nov. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Context Labs B.V. (“Context Labs”), the AI Data Infrastructure company, today launched the Context Labs AI Distillery™, the Context Engine for trusted sovereign AI. The AI Distillery converts an enterprise’s operational and business data into a governed Context Package that the enterprise owns, creating their own protected competitive moat. Every answer an AI model draws from the package is traced to its source records, and the package works with the frontier or open weight model the customer chooses, inside the customer’s own environment.

Analysts have quantified the obstacle to scaling enterprise AI. Gartner predicts that through 2026 organizations will abandon 60% of AI projects unsupported by AI-ready data, and that over 40% of agentic AI projects will be canceled by the end of 2027. McKinsey reports that eight in ten companies name data limitations as the barrier to scaling AI agents. Gartner has also described what enterprises now need: software that lets teams construct, govern and deliver semantically organized knowledge to AI agents, built on ontologies and knowledge graphs.

 The Context Labs AI Distillery™ is designed around six outcomes:

Own your IP. An enterprise’s knowledge, know-how and operating context stay inside a Context Package that only it controls and are not used to train third-party AI models.

Own your AI. The intelligence employees create in everyday use accrues to the enterprise, not to a model provider, and grows with every interaction.

Trusted, provable answers. Every output carries its data lineage and decision provenance, so answers can be verified, audited, and defended.

Build, protect and scale a proprietary competitive asset. The Context Package captures how the enterprise describes and runs its operations, starting with one facility and extending to others without rebuilding.

Sovereign by design. The AI Distillery runs inside the customer’s own data center or chosen cloud, so data stays where the customer decides.

Freedom of model choice, at lower cost. Customers can use any frontier or open-weight model and switch models without rebuilding the Context Package. Precise, verified context reduces the tokens each query uses.

The AI Distillery works in three steps: distill, package, and prove. It maps an enterprise’s structured and unstructured data to industry-specific ontologies, stores the result in a Context Package with cryptographic provenance, and checks answers against the company’s own records before any model goes into production. Work that has typically required teams of specialist engineers becomes a guided, governed workflow.

Context Agents and the Semantic Context Tunnel. Context Agents answer operational, commercial and compliance questions from the enterprise’s Context Package, with every figure traced to its source. The Semantic Context Tunnel brings the same context into the AI assistant employees already use. Both work within the access controls the enterprise sets.

“Models come and go. An enterprise’s context should not,” said Dan Harple, Founder, Chairman and CEO of Context Labs. “Frontier models will keep improving, but they do not supply governance, provenance or trust, and they should not absorb the knowledge that makes a company competitive. The AI Distillery gives enterprises a moat they own: their own context, proven and protected, working with whichever model they choose. That is how our customers own their IP and own their AI.”

At ADIPEC 2026, Context Labs is demonstrating the AI Distillery on energy-sector use cases, in which a Context Agent answers operational questions with every figure traced to the underlying plant records. Context Labs is located Arab Development Group stand, Stand #5240, Hall 5 and in the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA, AI Zone, Hall 13.

Availability. The Context Labs AI Distillery™ is available now through the Microsoft Marketplace. Each enterprise license includes an industry starter kit to accelerate time to value. Companies can request a briefing or technical working session at contextlabs.com/distillery.

About Context Labs B.V.

Context Labs is an AI Data Infrastructure company delivering the Context Engine for Trusted and Secure Sovereign AI. Its platform turns complex, fragmented operational, engineering and enterprise data into continuously verified, auditable information that AI systems, people and markets can trust. Built on an extensible library of industry-specific ontologies that map to established standards published by ISO and other standards bodies, the platform is deployable across sectors, with use-case applications delivering decision-ready intelligence on a common foundation. The Context Labs AI Distillery™ lets enterprises run sovereign AI inside their own data centers, so they own their IP and own their AI. Formed out of MIT research and led by a team that helped drive the at-scale growth of the Internet, Context Labs has offices in Amsterdam, Cambridge (Mass.), Houston and Abu Dhabi.

From IFA Berlin to CES 2027: OlloBot Continues Its Journey in Emotional Companionship

Published

on

By

HONG KONG, Oct. 31, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — AI companion robot brand OlloBot made its European debut at IFA Berlin 2026, where its AI companion robot OlloNi SS1 was named an Honoree in the Best in Home & Entertainment category of the IFA Innovation Awards. The recognition, alongside feedback from visitors at the show, offered further encouragement for OlloBot’s belief that the future of home robotics lies not only in what robots can do, but also in the connections they can build with people.

In the Top 10 Trends in China’s Robotics and Embodied Intelligence Market for 2026, IDC identifies the evolution of educational and companion robots into all-age home intelligent terminals as a key trend. The report highlights a growing emphasis on long-term companionship, contextual understanding and ongoing content services, with value extending beyond specific functions to lasting relationships and services.

OlloBot is building its identity around this shift. Rather than developing humanoid robots or devices primarily centered on task execution, the brand is exploring a different path through what it calls “Cyber Pet,” an emerging category of home companions designed around emotional relationships. Its approach starts with a simple question: how can a robot become a familiar and meaningful presence in someone’s life?

For OlloBot, the answer lies in restraint. A companion robot should not replace human relationships or compete for a user’s constant attention. It should learn when to engage and when to step back. The goal is not about delivering a moment of novelty or amusement. It is about creating a unique relationship that can expand with each interaction and gradually become personally meaningful.

“We believe home robots need to enter the household through emotional connection,” said Lyn Fang, founder of OlloBot. “Technology can create the conditions for interaction, but meaningful companionship comes from how those interactions make people feel over time.”

At IFA, the enthusiasm from visitors offered a tangible reflection of this approach. Under the theme “Touch. Feel. Bond.,” OlloBot created an open, home-inspired setting where visitors could interact with OlloNi SS1 directly. Powered by OlloBot’s proprietary EmpathCore emotional engine and Affinilog interaction system, OlloNi SS1 engages dynamically through touch, sound and facial expressions. OlloNi SS1 also appeared in IFA’s “Robots on the Runway” showcase, where its emotional engine enabled it to react to its surroundings in real time. Visitors were not simply examining a device or comparing functions. They were exploring how it responded to them. The experience reinforced the brand’s conviction that, in the home, emotional connection can matter as much as technical capability.

Next stop: Las Vegas

The recognition and feedback at IFA mark an encouraging step as OlloBot continues to advance its product development and commercialization. Looking ahead to CES 2027, OlloBot is set to take the next step in its journey by introducing two all-new robot family members: a desktop lamp-form robot and OlloBot Gen 2. Visitors will also get a first look at a rich lineup of IP merchandise and ecosystem peripherals built around the flagship OlloVerse universe. Please stay tuned—OlloBot looks forward to welcoming everyone in Las Vegas and sharing how its expanding ecosystem continues to redefine emotional companionship in the home.

About OlloBot

OlloBot is an AI companion robot brand developed by Ollobot Robotics Limited, a Hong Kong-based company and part of BizConf Technology Co., Ltd. (SZSE: 300578).

The company focuses on embodied intelligence and family-oriented AI companion robots designed to support more natural interaction, emotional presence and connection in modern homes. Through its Cyber Pet concept, OlloBot aims to explore how AI and robotics can become a more meaningful and approachable part of everyday family life.
