Daribatech joins a select group of Ministry of Finance pre-approved Accredited Service Providers, enabling UAE businesses to achieve full compliance ahead of the January 2027 deadline

DUBAI, UAE, June 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Daribatech, a UAE-based tax technology company, today announced that it is now a pre-approved Accredited Service Provider (ASP) by the UAE Ministry of Finance (MoF) under the national Electronic Invoicing System (EIS). This positions Daribatech as a fully authorised intermediary through which UAE businesses can issue, validate, and exchange structured e-invoices in compliance with the country’s Peppol-based Continuous Transaction Control (CTC) framework.

The UAE’s e-invoicing mandate requires all businesses engaged in B2B and B2G transactions to issue invoices exclusively in structured XML format (PINT-AE standard) through an approved ASP. Large businesses with annual revenues of AED 50 million or more must appoint an accredited solution provider by 31 October 2026, ahead of the mandatory Phase 1 go-live on 1 January 2027. Daribatech’s accreditation enables its clients to begin onboarding, testing, and live invoice exchange immediately via the EmaraTax portal.

“Receiving ASP accreditation from the UAE Ministry of Finance is a defining milestone for Daribatech. Powered by RTC Suite, our solution is not only technically compliant with the PINT-AE standard and Peppol network requirements, but also simplifies the compliance journey for large, complex businesses. As the October 2026 deadline to select an ASP approaches, our message to UAE enterprises is clear: you do not need to navigate this mandate alone. Daribatech is ready, accredited, and here to ensure your transition to e-invoicing is seamless, secure, and future-proof.” – Jay Riche, Co-founder & CEO, Daribatech

What ASP Accreditation Means for UAE Businesses

As an approved ASP, Daribatech provides the complete technical infrastructure that UAE businesses need to meet their e-invoicing obligations, including:

Data validation: Dariba Control Studio (DCS) gives you a single, intelligent platform to understand, validate, and correct critical data before it reaches the FTAStructured XML invoice creation and validation compliant with PINT-AE and UAE VAT law requirementsSeamless integration with leading ERP and accounting platforms, reducing implementation complexitySecure transmission of e-invoices across the Peppol network to buyers and trading partnersReal-time data enrichment, digital signatures, and pre-submission error correctionFull data residency within the UAE, ensuring compliance with local data sovereignty requirements

With the mandatory compliance deadline rapidly approaching, businesses that delay ASP selection risk penalties of up to AED 5,000 per legal entity each month for non-compliance. Daribatech encourages organisations to initiate onboarding immediately to allow sufficient time for ERP integration, data mapping, sandbox testing, and training prior to go-live.

The Twist Fast Hyb App joins Twist’s Standard Hyb v2 App on Callisto, giving labs a fully walk-away path to target enrichment, with run-to-run consistency and same-day turnaround

BOSTON, June 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Volta Labs, the genomics applications company transforming next-generation sequencing (NGS) sample preparation through automation, today announced the launch of the App for Twist Bioscience’s Fast Hybridization Kit on the Callisto™ Sample Prep System. With this launch, two of Twist’s core hybrid capture workflows – Fast Hybridization and Standard Hybridization v2 – are now available as automated Apps on Callisto.

Developed in collaboration with Twist Bioscience, the Fast Hyb App automates one of the most complex and hands-on steps in NGS sample preparation – hybridization-based target enrichment – a fully walk-away workflow on Callisto. By bringing Twist’s Fast Hyb protocol onto Callisto’s digital fluidics platform, labs can move from a traditional overnight hybridization to a same-day, sample-to-sequencer workflow without adding operational burden.

Hybrid capture-based target enrichment is difficult to automate, requiring precise temperature control, repeated magnetic bead manipulation, and a careful hands-on technique that can introduce variability between runs and between operators. The Twist Fast Hyb App removes that burden. Following amplification, Callisto executes the protocol automatically, including temperature control and bead handling, so labs get consistent results without constant attention.

Critically, the Twist Fast Hyb App delivers run-to-run consistency and eliminates operator-to-operator variability, one of the most persistent sources of error in manual target enrichment. In testing, Callisto produced sequencing performance equivalent to manual preparation, with comparable quality control (QC) metrics including Fold-80, coverage uniformity, and AT/GC dropout. Together, these results show that labs can automate a difficult workflow and accelerate turnaround while maintaining the performance they expect from manual preparation.

“Target enrichment is one of the hardest workflows to automate, and it’s one where small differences in technique can change your results,” said Udayan Umapathi, CEO and founder of Volta Labs. “With the Twist Fast Hyb App, labs get a fully walk-away version of Twist’s Fast Hybridization protocol that delivers the same performance as manual, but with the run-to-run consistency that only automation can provide, and a turnaround measured in hours instead of overnight. And with both Fast and Standard Hybridization now on Callisto, labs can run their full range of Twist hybrid capture on a single automated platform.”

The Twist Fast Hyb App is well suited to labs running comprehensive cancer profiling, whole exome sequencing, and other targeted sequencing applications, where teams face steady pressure to deliver results faster while managing operational complexity and limited hands-on capacity.

“By expanding our entire hybrid capture portfolio on Volta Labs’ Callisto, we are providing labs with the ultimate flexibility to seamlessly pivot between varying schedule and performance needs,” said Emily M. Leproust, CEO and co-founder of Twist Bioscience. “Advanced automation is vital for lowering the barrier to adoption, making it easier than ever for customers to implement high-performance target enrichment solutions without the operational headache of manual workflows.”

The Twist Fast Hyb App is available now on the Callisto Sample Prep System, joining the Twist Standard Hyb v2 App.

BEIJING, June 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — On June 9, iQIYI, China’s leading online entertainment platform, launched “None Shall Escape” on iQIYI and iQIYI International, a psychological thriller under the platform’s Emerging Film Project initiative. The film is among the first feature films produced with the support of NadouPro, iQIYI’s AI platform built for professional film and television production, which helped the production achieve a nearly 50% improvement in overall shot production efficiency.

“None Shall Escape” centers on a young medical student who travels alone to a secluded Western-style manor in search of her missing twin sister. What begins as a desperate search turns into a psychological ordeal as she unravels the estate’s dark secrets, navigating the line between reason and madness to survive.

Rethinking the Visual Effects Workflow

NadouPro’s workspace addresses one of the most persistent pain points in large-scale productions: managing massive visual effects shots across teams. Through a project management feature purpose-built for professional workflows, it gives teams a centralized, scalable environment for shot tracking and scene management.

“NadouPro connects to many different large-model tools, allowing us to run the same prompt across models and identify which performed best for each shot type. The project management interface also allowed our team to organize shots, track progress, and communicate in real time, something other AI tools we had used simply could not offer,” said Yu ZHANG, Visual Effects Director of “None Shall Escape”, who is part of a seasoned visual effects team with experience across multiple major drama series and film projects.

From Concept to Screen

Leveraging NadouPro, the production team handled conceptual art design and shot generation for multiple visual effects sequences, while also applying the platform to enhance live-action footage through effects refinement, prop replacement, and atmosphere augmentation. For one of the film’s most AI-intensive sequence – depicting human cells mutating under an experimental drug – NadouPro compressed what would have been nearly a month of atmosphere development under a traditional workflow into under one week, saving approximately three weeks overall.

For another scene requiring post-war smoke and haze around the manor exterior, the traditional approach would have demanded extensive particle simulation and compositing, with frame-by-frame work covering smoke dynamics, light matching, and camera tracking. With NadouPro, the team imported the live-action footage directly into the platform and, drawing on its integrated large-model tools, rapidly generated multiple stylistic variants that closely replicated real on-set conditions.

Post-production Director Xingsheng HAN noted that integrating NadouPro into the visual effects pipeline improved overall shot production efficiency by nearly 50%. For him, AI is not a replacement for human creativity but a tool that frees production teams from repetitive work, allowing them to redirect their energy toward the creative process itself. “Even without AI, experienced visual effects professionals could produce these shots”, he said. “The real question is how we draw on existing production expertise to complete long-form projects more efficiently and to a higher standard.”

NadouPro’s Rapid Adoption and Global Expansion

“None Shall Escape” is among the first feature films completed with the support of NadouPro, marking a step forward in iQIYI’s continued progress toward an industrialized AI workflow for feature film production.

Since opening for commercial use on April 20, NadouPro has onboarded more than 10,000 active creators and supported over 100 iQIYI original productions in under one month, reflecting strong early adoption across the industry. As NadouPro continues to roll out new features and expand internationally, these milestones further demonstrate the platform’s capabilities to support professional long-form content creation.
