The joint workflow streamlines how organizations manage and submit editorial imagery, reducing the time between capture and commercial availability

NEW YORK, June 25, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — PhotoShelter, a leading digital asset management (DAM) platform for brands, today announced a new integration with Getty Images that enables sports and higher education organizations to move content from capture to global licensing in real time.

Working together helps content production teams spend less time managing logistics and more time bringing great stories to the world, all while unlocking additional revenue opportunities.”

The integration is designed to support professional sports teams, leagues, governing bodies, and college athletics departments with high-volume content production environments where speed and accuracy are critical. From regular-season games and everyday campus life to playoffs, championships, ceremonies, and more, this process transforms the way institutions and organizations produce and monetize their imagery quickly, consistently, and with confidence.

Getty Images’ SVP of Global Strategic Partnerships Peter Orlowsky said, “This integration strengthens the connection between content creation and global distribution. It enables contributors to deliver high-quality, rights-ready imagery into the Getty Images marketplace more quickly, increasing the availability and commercial potential of their content at scale.”

Credit Refresh LLC brings advanced AI and full consumer control to a traditionally complex dispute process

DOVER, Del., Sept. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Credit Refresh LLC, creator of the AI-powered CreditRefresh platform, today announced that members used CreditRefresh to challenge more than 1,000 potentially inaccurate, incomplete, outdated or unverifiable credit report items during the platform’s first month.

CreditRefresh helps consumers conduct a detailed review of the credit report information they provide. Members decide what to address, review and edit their dispute materials, and control every step of the process themselves.

“Seeing members challenge more than 1,000 potential reporting errors during our first month reinforces our belief that consumers want a simpler and more transparent way to manage credit disputes,” said Jordan Reyes, Head of Product at Credit Refresh LLC. “CreditRefresh gives consumers advanced analysis and clear guidance while keeping every decision in their hands.”

AI trained for detailed credit report analysis

CreditRefresh uses advanced AI trained specifically to analyze credit report information with care and consistency. The technology reviews account-level details and applies structured checks across the information available for analysis.

This field-by-field approach helps members examine the information behind each account and understand which details may warrant further investigation. CreditRefresh can identify potential inconsistencies, outdated information, incomplete records and other details that may be difficult to recognize during a basic manual review.

CreditRefresh also makes the process easier for consumers who would otherwise attempt credit disputes without guidance. The platform organizes relevant information, explains potential issues in plain language and helps members prepare personalized dispute materials.

Consumers remain in control

Members choose which items to address, review the supporting information, approve the language used in their dispute materials, and decide whether and when to submit each dispute.

CreditRefresh encourages members to dispute only information they believe is inaccurate, incomplete, outdated or unverifiable.

“CreditRefresh was built to help consumers understand what appears on their credit reports and take informed action,” said Reyes. “Advanced AI handles the detailed analysis and organization. Members remain in control from the initial review through the final dispute decision.”

A promising first month

The more than 1,000 potential reporting errors challenged during the first month represent an early milestone for Credit Refresh LLC and demonstrate how consumers are using AI to take a more active role in the credit dispute process.

Each disputed item represents a decision made by a CreditRefresh member after reviewing the available information. Through this guided process, consumers can investigate potential errors and take an important first step toward better credit.

CreditRefresh does not promise a specific credit outcome. Results vary based on each consumer’s credit profile, the information disputed, creditor and credit bureau responses, and other financial activity.

A simpler approach to credit disputes

CreditRefresh combines systematic credit report analysis with the accessibility of a guided do-it-yourself experience. Members receive help understanding complicated report information while retaining personal control over the dispute process.

By making detailed analysis easier to access, Credit Refresh LLC aims to help more consumers understand their credit reports, investigate potential errors and take informed steps toward better credit.

About CreditRefresh

CreditRefresh is an AI-powered platform created by Credit Refresh LLC. CreditRefresh helps consumers review credit report information, identify potential reporting issues, prepare personalized dispute materials and manage the dispute process themselves. CreditRefresh is designed to make credit report disputes more understandable, detailed and accessible while keeping consumers in control.

Activity disclosure

The statement that members challenged more than 1,000 potential reporting errors is based on CreditRefresh platform records from July 28, 2026 through August 28, 2026. The total reflects credit report items selected for dispute by members. Submission of a dispute does not establish that the disputed information was inaccurate or guarantee a particular outcome.

IFA 2026: Sunseeker Debuts 2027 LiDAR Models, Smart Garden Ecosystem and Industry‑First 3D Semantic Map

Published

By

The 2027 LiDAR lineup and intelligent garden platform mark a strategic shift from standalone mowers to a connected, adaptive outdoor ecosystem

BERLIN, Sept. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Sunseeker, a global leader in intelligent lawn care, unveiled five all-new 2027 LiDAR products at IFA 2026, alongside its Smart Garden ecosystem, AllSense™ 3.0, and MapOS™ with the industry’s first 3D Semantic Map for intuitive, real-scene lawn management.

Making its IFA debut, Sunseeker is expanding its vision beyond robotic mowing to build a connected Smart Garden ecosystem powered by AI, robotics, supporting smart irrigation, weed control, and the seamless integration of an expanding range of outdoor robots.

Sunseeker’s 2027 LiDAR lineup: precision, intelligence and scalability for every garden

Sunseeker’s 2027 LiDAR lineup is designed for effortless use: no manual mapping, no complexity. All five models come standard with LiDAR sensing. Among them, the S7 LiDAR Ultra AWD 3000 and S5 LiDAR Ultra Pro AWD 1800 feature AllSense™ 3.0, which uses 360° LiDAR to autonomously map and navigate the working environment, along with Smart Garden ecosystem and MapOS™. The S3 LiDAR Series utilizes solid-state LiDAR. All are engineered to deliver precise perception and reliable navigation across diverse garden environments. The S7’s AWD easily handles steep and uneven ground, including slopes of up to 80% (approx. 39°). The five models bring wire-free and antenna-free installation and centimeter-level navigation to gardens from 500 to 3,000 square meters. Availability begins in February 2027.

The S7 is designed for large and complex lawns and features an Extension Hub that supports accessories such as the EdgeZero trimmer head, enabling precise 0cm edge-to-edge cutting, as well as a robotic arm. The S5 brings advanced intelligence to medium and large family gardens, while the S3 Series provides wireless precision for smaller and sloped lawns. With 360° LiDAR and recognition of more than 360 types of obstacles, Sunseeker’s perception technology helps mowers detect and respond to objects more accurately, reducing the risk of collisions and helping users enjoy safer and more reliable autonomous mowing with less manual intervention.

Smart Garden: An Intelligent Ecosystem That Senses, Understands, and Recommends

At IFA 2026, Sunseeker introduced the Smart Garden ecosystem, bringing a more intelligent garden and lawn management experience to users.

Built on Sense, Understand, and Recommend, Sunseeker’s Smart Garden ecosystem connects robotic mowers, rain gauges, soil sensors (available 2027), and future autonomous robots into a unified intelligence network. By continuously monitoring rainfall, soil, lawn health, and environmental conditions, it builds real‑time garden understanding, transforming data into actionable insights through onboard Vision AI, multi‑modal sensor fusion, and cloud‑based AI models. For example, when yellow grass is detected, AI can help determine whether it is caused by drought or pests and recommend watering or pest control. Future integration with Smart Irrigation Control will further extend Smart Garden from sensing and recommendations to automated action.

Sunseeker also unveiled its FSA (Flexible Supervised Autonomy Outdoors) technology roadmap to explore the future development of autonomous outdoor care. Informed by discussions with Prof. Dr. Alan Akbik, Professor of Machine Learning at Humboldt University of Berlin, the roadmap aims to progressively reduce human intervention. With Sunseeker currently at the Level 3 (L3) Smart Garden stage and progressing toward L4 Supervised Autonomous Garden and L5 Supervised Autonomous Outdoors, the roadmap charts a clear path forward.

“AI will redefine the entire outdoor-care industry. As we progress from L3 toward L4 and L5, human involvement in outdoor work will continue to decline, helping address labor shortages and population aging,” said Prof. Dr. Alan Akbik.

“This evolution is already underway, and Sunseeker is committed to leading it,” said Terry Ma, CEO of Sunseeker. “We will continue to invest in AI and robotics, advancing from Smart Garden to Flexible Supervised Autonomous Outdoors to free users from routine outdoor work and give them more freedom to enjoy life.

MapOS™: Industry‑First 3D Semantic Map for Intuitive Lawn Management

Integrating AI semantic understanding, MapOS™ transforms visual information into a semantic map to create a digital representation of the garden with contextual understanding, the real-scene map will give users a clear view of the garden including both layout and key landscape elements, which further enables fine-tune boundaries point by point, designates no-go and safe zones, and customizes mowing settings directly on the map to make the lawn management more intuitive and precise.

For large or complex gardens, MapOS™ combines real-scene visualization with intelligent insights to reduce unnecessary remapping and manual intervention, delivering a more effortless lawn-care experience.

Accelerating growth through portfolio strength and global reach

Sunseeker Robotics achieved a threefold increase in revenue in 2026, driven by 14 products across 40 countries under its dual-brand strategy. The company continues to strengthen its Glocal strategy through localized partnerships, retail expansion and full-channel service capabilities. Its retail network has grown from approximately 1,500 points of sale in 2025 to about 5,000 in 2026, supported by partnerships with leading retailers, e-commerce platforms and regional distributors across Europe and the U.S.

Sunseeker is also expanding its presence through partnerships with national team and major sports clubs, including FFF (French Football Federation), SV Werder Bremen (Germany), Mantova 1911 (Italy), IFK Göteborg (Sweden) and F.C. Copenhagen (Denmark), Philadelphia Phillies (US), further strengthening its connection with local communities beyond product sales.
